On September 15th, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) and the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) jointly unveiled the '15th Five-Year Plan for the Electronic Information Manufacturing Industry.' This comprehensive plan explicitly sets forth the goal of propelling the research and development (R&D) and subsequent industrialization of the fifth-generation Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC-V) architecture. Moreover, it underscores the importance of fostering the widespread adoption of RISC-V chips across pivotal sectors, including artificial intelligence (AI) and embedded systems.

In tandem with these objectives, the plan places a strong emphasis on fostering deep-seated collaborative innovation between chip developers and model creators. It advocates for the co-design and meticulous optimization of algorithms and hardware architectures, ensuring seamless integration and enhanced performance.

Turning its attention to communication equipment, the plan mandates the solidification of competitive advantages and the expedited R&D of cutting-edge technologies and products. This encompasses areas such as high-end data communication, optical communication, mobile communication, satellite communication, and next-generation wireless short-range communication, thereby fortifying the industry's technological prowess.

Furthermore, the plan envisions the intelligent transformation of industrial control equipment, advocating for the establishment of an integrated industrial computing system that harmonizes computing, control, sensing, and transmission capabilities. It also promotes the high-end evolution of laser equipment, aiming for breakthroughs in key technologies like high-performance lasers.

Additionally, the plan steers the development of radar equipment towards digitization, integration, and intelligence, accelerating its deployment in burgeoning fields such as intelligent driving and the low-altitude economy. Lastly, it calls for swift technological advancements in transfer equipment, enhancing its flexibility and intelligence to cater to the demands of next-generation intelligent manufacturing.
