Deadlines Begin on October 26, 2009
LOUISVILLE, Colo.--(Business Wire)--
The 47th Design Automation Conference (DAC), the premier conference devoted to
electronic design and design automation (EDA), has opened the first Call for
Contributions to the technical program. The 47th DAC will be held at the Anaheim
Convention Center, in Anaheim, California from June 13-18, 2010. IC designers,
application engineers, design flow developers, vendor-customer teams and
students are invited to submit proposals for eight different areas of the
technical program enumerated below. DAC is also accepting proposals for
workshops and co-located events.
Special Session Suggestions:
DUE BEFORE 5:00pm MT, October 26, 2009
DAC invites suggestions for special sessions, which consist of technical
contributions devoted to a topic of strong contemporary or future interest. The
topic of a special session must represent an emerging area that does not yet
receive sufficient focus from research papers. Suggestions must include
descriptions of the proposed papers and speakers as well as the importance of
the special session to the DAC audience.
See Special Session submission guidelines at
http://www.dac.com/47th/PDFs/47th_DAC_SpecialSession_Guidelines.pdf
Panel and Tutorial Suggestions:
DUE BEFORE 5:00pm MT, October 26, 2009
Suggestions for panels and tutorials should not exceed two pages, should
describe the topic and intended audience, and should include a list of suggested
participants. Tutorial suggestions must include a bulleted outline of covered
topics.
See the Full-day Tutorial Submission guidelines at
http://www.dac.com/47th/PDFs/47th_DAC_FullDay_Tutorial_Submission_Guidelines.pdf
User Track Presentations:
Extended Abstracts DUE BEFORE 5:00pm MT, January 18, 2010
User Track Presentations address the real-life issues facing IC designers,
application engineers, and design flow developers, providing valuable insights
and experiences with in-house or commercial EDA tool flows. Presentations may
describe the application of EDA tools to the design of a novel electronic system
or the integration of EDA tools within a design flow or methodology to produce
such systems.
Initial submissions are in the form of a two-page extended abstract. Final
submissions will be in the form of a PowerPoint presentation and an optional
paper. User Track authors will not be required to sign a copyright release form.
See details and submission categories at http://www.dac.com/47th/UTinfo.html
Research Papers:
DUE BEFORE 5:00pm MT, November 19, 2009
Original research papers are solicited from industry and the research/academic
community. While submissions in all areas of design automation are welcome, DAC
specifically solicits research papers in the areas of multicore/many core
architectures, system prototyping technology and embedded software design and
debug.
Submissions must not identify the author(s) by their name(s) or affiliation(s)
anywhere on the manuscript or abstract, with all references to the author(s)`s
own previous work or affiliations in the bibliographic citations being in the
third person. All research papers will be reviewed as finished papers. Authors
of accepted papers must sign a copyright release form for their paper. See
submission topic categories at http://www.dac.com/47th/PDFs/47DAC_CFP.pdf

Wild and Crazy Ideas (WACI) Papers
DUE BEFORE 5:00pm MT, November 19, 2009
WACI Papers cover interesting activities on a wide variety of topics that do not
fit in the conventional mold. The WACI track features novel (and even
preliminary or unproven) technical ideas. The aim of WACI is to promote
revolutionary and "way-out" ideas that inspire discussion among conference
attendees, create a buzz, and get people talking. Submissions should not exceed
two pages, but must otherwise follow the rules and deadlines for the research
papers. Unlike a DAC research paper that explores a specific technology problem
and proposes a complete solution to it, with extensive experimental results, a
WACI paper could present less developed but highly innovative ideas related to
areas relevant to DAC. All WACI accepted papers will be required to post a
two-minute video describing the work as part of the acceptance process.

Student Design Contest Submissions:
DUE BEFORE 5:00pm MT, November 25, 2009
Jointly sponsored by ISSCC and DAC, the contest promotes excellence in the
design of electronic systems within an academic environment and provides a forum
in which undergraduate/graduate students` ingenuity can be shared with an
audience of academic/industrial technical experts. The winners will present
their designs through posters at ISSCC 2010 and DAC 2010. Designs may be
targeted towards analog, digital, MEMS, optics, biological, or programmable
circuits and embedded systems/platforms in any of the three categories:
operational, system level, or conceptual.

http://www.dac.com/47th/PDFs/47th_SDC_Submission_Guidelines.pdf
Workshops:
DUE BEFORE 5:00pm MT, January 29, 2010
Workshops focus on topics related to design, design methodologies, and design
automation.

About DAC
The Design Automation Conference (DAC) is recognized as the premier event for
the design of electronic circuits and systems, and for Electronic Design
Automation (EDA) and silicon solutions. A diverse worldwide community
representing more than 1,000 organizations attends each year, represented by
system designers and architects, logic and circuit designers, validation
engineers, CAD managers, senior managers and executives to researchers and
academicians from leading universities. Close to 60 technical sessions selected
by a committee of electronic design experts offer information on recent
developments and trends, management practices and new products, methodologies
and technologies. A highlight of DAC is its Exhibition and Suite area with
approximately 200 of the leading and emerging EDA, silicon, IP and design
services providers. The conference is sponsored by the Association for Computing
Machinery (ACM), the Electronic Design Automation Consortium (EDA Consortium),
and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and is
supported by ACM's Special Interest Group on Design Automation (SIGDA) and
IEEE's Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA). More details are
available at: www.dac.com.
Design Automation Conference acknowledges trademarks or registered trademarks of
other organizations for their respective products and services.
