Embedded Software @ DATE 2008

- First Call For Papers -

DATE

DATE (Design, Automation and Test in Europe, www.date-conference.com) is the
leading European event in all aspects of electronic system design automation
and test. DATE combines a top quality world leading conference that selects
less than 25% of roughly 1000 submitted papers and is attended by more than
1200 attendees from all over the world with a large exhibition that brings
together all major EDA vendors of the world.

DATE has a tradition to combine high-class contributions to theory and
formal methods with presentations of practical applications in one event,
thus fostering the interaction of industry and academia. The exhibition is
key to this development as it attracts industrial designers. 

Embedded Software Track @ DATE

With its strong background in hardware design and design automation, DATE
has started to include complementary embedded software topics that are
closely related to the physical properties of a system. There are huge
benefits in bringing together scientists that work on hardware platforms and
design, with others that work on embedded software and applications with
strong ties to physical platform properties. 

To emphasize the importance, DATE has established an embedded software track
with several topics putting it at equal level with the traditional hardware
and system-oriented tracks. The software track follows the same pattern of
combining theory and practice that was instrumental to the success of DATE.
