ELECTRONIC DESIGN PROCESSES -- EDP 2004

http://www.eda-twiki.org/edps/edp04/

April 25-27, 2004, Monterey Beach Hotel, Monterey, CA

IEEE Computer Society
Sponsored by Technical Committee on Design Automation
In cooperation with ACM/SIGDA
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The Electronic Design Processes (EDP) Workshop provides a
forum for a cross-section of the design community to
discuss state-of-the-art electronic design processes and
CAD methodologies. As the requirements and complexities
of electronic design increase, past ad hoc approaches to
design processes are proving inadequate. The workshop
focuses on the facilitation and improvement of the
overall design process, rather than on the functions of the
individual tools themselves. Topics include interactions
among and between tools and designers, the infrastructures
supporting these interactions, and the frameworks in which
these interactions take place.

FOCUS IN 2004: Methodologies for Energy-Aware
High-Performance Systems

We solicit papers and proposals for special/panel sessions
that shed light on the methodologies used for real, current
and future chip and system designs. Methodology aspects
of interest include but are not limited to:

1. Best practices and experiences
    Domain-specific methodologies: SOC, analog / mixed-signal, RF

2. Metrics
    Cost, time-to-market, productivity

3. Flow integration/optimization
    Scaling and migration
    Scaling to diskbusters
    Co-evolution of methodology and process technology

4. Human issues
    Large/distributed design teams
    Training and education

5. Manufacturing integration
    Process/device characterization, modeling

6. Domain-specific methodologies
    Functional verification
    RTL-down implementation
    HW/SW co-design
    IP reuse

7. Key trends
    Future methodology needs and concepts
    Impact of design-manufacturing interface
    Process advances and multi-technology integration
    New tool/algorithms
    Interoperability
    Impact of the web, licensing models, and platforms

All papers must be submitted electronically through the
website or by email to jantonio@us.ibm.com. Authors should
submit full-length, original and unpublished papers
(maximum 20 pages in single-column double spaced format,
or 6 pages in double-column conference proceedings format)
along with author contact information. Proposals for special
and panel sessions may also be submitted; a 1-page description
along with organizer contact information is required.
