DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT\n\nThe next wave of intelligence isn’t in the cloud
 —it’s in machines. Humanoid robots\, autonomous vehicles\, drones\, an
 d defense systems are becoming intelligent\, autonomous\, and always conne
 cted—while operating under strict size\, weight\, and power (SWaP) const
 raints.\n\nAnd here’s the shift: AI doesn’t move\, see\, or act withou
 t communication. RF and wireless systems are no longer just enablers—the
 y are becoming the bottleneck.\n\nMeeting these demands is pushing traditi
 onal planar scaling and disaggregated system design to their limits. 3D he
 terogeneous integration offers a new path—tightly combining RF\, power\,
  and compute into compact\, high-performance architectures.\n\nBut this is
  not just a packaging challenge. It requires rethinking the system—co-de
 sign across devices\, architecture\, and integration.\n\nThis talk explore
 s how RF and wireless systems must evolve for the AI-driven edge\, and pre
 sents Maxwell Mission’s platform approach—leveraging GaN\, CMOS\, and 
 advanced packaging—to enable the next generation of intelligent\, connec
 ted machines.\n\n[]\n\nBIOGRAPHY\n\nDr. Ibrahim Khalil is the Founder and 
 CEO of Maxwell Mission Inc.\, a U.S.-based semiconductor company advancing
  the physical layer of intelligent and connected systems through innovatio
 ns in RF\, power\, and heterogeneous integration. With over two decades of
  experience\, his work spans RF power amplifiers\, transceivers\, and syst
 em-level architectures that underpin modern wireless infrastructure\, defe
 nse platforms\, and emerging edge AI systems.\n\nPrior to founding Maxwell
  Mission\, Dr. Khalil held leadership roles at NXP Semiconductors\, where 
 he served as Director of Strategic Business Development and Director of R&
 D for the Advanced Analog Business Unit. Earlier in his career\, he was wi
 th Infineon Technologies\, contributing to multiple generations of RF powe
 r technologies with significant commercial impact.\n\nDr. Khalil is an Adj
 unct Faculty member at Arizona State University and holds over 30 U.S. pat
 ents. His current work focuses on integrating device\, packaging\, and sys
 tem co-design to enable next-generation RF\, wireless\, and edge intellige
 nce platforms.\n\nDate: May 14\, 2026 (Thursday) 5:30-7:30pm\n\nLocation:
