CALL FOR PAPERS
Scope
VLSI-SOC 2001 is the 11th in a series of biennial international conferences on Very Large Scale Integration Systems and their designs, sponsored by IFIP TC 10 Working Group 10.5 (VLSI). Previous conferences have taken place in Edinburgh, Trondheim, Tokyo, Vancouver, Munich, Grenoble, Gramado and Lisbon. The next edition of the IFIP VLSI conference will be held in Montpellier, December 2001. It is organized by LIRMM ( Univ. Montpellier II ).
The purpose of the Conference is to provide a forum to exchange ideas and to show industrial and research results in the field of microelectronics design. All aspects of Microelectronics Design and Test are within the scope of the Conference.
Areas of interest
VLSI-SOC 2001 will be organized around two tracks: IP Core, Circuit and System Designs & Applications, and SOC Design Methods and CAD. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
1. IP Core, Circuit and System Designs
Panels, embedded tutorials and
hot-topic sessions will discuss new trends, can be visionary
and/or controversial. A one-page abstract must be submitted.
Please contact
B. Rouzeyre or
C. Piguet
for any information and proposal.
Paper submission, review and notification of acceptance will be done electronically through
the conference's WWW pages: Paper Submission.
Accepted file formats are PDF and postscript.
On site VLSI-soc will deliver proceedings and CD of the accepted
contributions whose authors wish to provide the corresponding material.
After the conference, a book of selected papers will
be published by Kluwer. The Program Committee will select the
contributions to be included in the book. Capital of the
Languedoc-Roussillon, Montpellier has for centuries been a city where different
cultures meet. Today, it is a dynamic economy in which art and
science go hand in hand with advanced technology and the superb
Mediterranean style-life. Part of the great European Medieval
City tradition, open to the world, linked as much to the
Mediterranean as to northern Europe, it is forever welcoming and
assimilating new ideas, a melting pot of all that is best in
today's civilisation. Montpellier is both a city dedicated to
building a new Europe, and one of the southern Europe's main
metropolises. Montpellier is connected by 10 flights/day with
Paris airports.
