Special session: Design, Analysis and Tools for Integrated Circuits and Systems <br><br>
DATICS 2008<br><br>
July 22-24,
2008 (Crete Island, Greece)

<br>
Aims and Scope<br>
--------------------------<br>
The main target of the Special Session: DATICS 2008 of the WSEAS CSCC multi-conference <br>
(<a href="http://www.wseas.org/conferences/2008/greece/icc/" target="_blank">http://www.wseas.org/conferences/2008/greece/icc/</a>) is to bring together software/hardware
<br>
engineering researchers, computer scientists, practitioners and people from industry to
<br>
exchange theories, ideas, techniques and experiences related to all areas of design, analysis and<br>
tools for integrated circuits (e.g. digital, analog and mixed-signal circuits) and <br>
systems (e.g. real-time, hybrid and embedded systems).
<br>
The special session also focuses on the field of formal methods and <br>
low power design methodologies for integrated circuits.<br>
<br>
Topics<br>
----------<br>
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
<br>
* digital, analog, mixed-signal designs and test<br>
* RF design and test<br>
* design-for-testability and built-in self test methodologies<br>
* reconfigurable system design<br>
* high-level synthesis<br>
* EDA tools for design, testing and verification
<br>
* low power design methodologies<br>
* network and system on-a-chip<br>
* application-specific SoCs<br>
* specification languages: SystemC, SystemVerilog and UML<br>
* all areas of modelling, simulation and verification<br>
* formal methods and formalisms (e.g. process algebras, petri-nets, automaton theory and BDDs)<br>
* real-time, hybrid and embedded systems<br>
* software engineering (including real-time Java, real-time UML and performance metrics)
<br>
