"Intel Labs will collaborate with the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) on research programmes expected to shape the future of information technology," Intel said in a statement.

The $15-million project will focus on "super-fast, but extremely energy-efficient memory technologies" for lightweight laptops, tablets and smartphones, it said.

Intel, ITRI and Taiwan's economic ministry each will spend $5 million on the five-year project.
