SYSTEM DESIGN
My apologies if this is a duplicate email.
The Symposium on Digital System Design
addresses architectures and implementations of (embedded) digital systems, as
well as efficient design methods and tools. It is a premier discussion forum for
researchers and engineers working on state-of-the-art investigations,
development, and applications of digital systems, processor and memory
architectures, application specific processors, systems-on-a-chip,
hardware/software co-design, circuit design, system validation, and design
automation.
The main areas of interest are the following:
·
Processor and memory architectures: (co-)processors; memories, busses and
their management units; arithmetic and logic units; pipelining; cache memories;
power and timing issues.
· Special architectures: re-configurable
architectures; graphics and image processors; custom computing machines;
processing arrays; DSPs; FPGAs; and asynchronous systems.
· Specification
and modeling: (hardware/software) system specification and modeling; system
and hardware design languages; component modeling; power and timing issues.
·
Validation: simulation, emulation, prototyping, and testing at the
system, register-transfer, logic and physical levels; multilevel simulation;
hardware/software co-simulation and co-verification.
· Synthesis:
system, hardware/software, behavioral, register-transfer, logic and physical
synthesis; system, hardware/software, and circuit partitioning; power, timing,
interconnect and other physical issues; technology aware (high-level) design
tools; quality, reliability and testability issues;
·
System-on-a-chip: platform-based design; re-configurable systems;
mega-cell compilation; deep sub-micron design issues; signal integrity;
intellectual property; and design reuse.
· Applications of (embedded)
digital systems with emphasis on demanding and new
applications.
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
Regular
Papers: Submissions can be made that describe innovative work in any of
the above main areas of interest. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit
their manuscripts for review electronically to the Program Chair via the
DSD'2003 web page before the deadline for submission. Each manuscript should
include all text, illustrations, and references. The manuscript should conform
to the required format single-spaced, double column, A4/US letter page size,
10-point size Times Roman font, up to 8 pages. The DSD'2003 web page should be
consulted for the exact submission format. In order to conduct a blind review,
no indication of the authors' names should appear in the submitted
manuscript.
Case Study Papers: Submissions can be made which
report on state-of-the-art digital systems, design methods and/or tools, and
(embedded) applications. Papers discussing lessons learned from practical
experience and experimental research are particularly encouraged. Manuscripts
may be submitted in the same way as regular papers.
Special (Invited)
Sessions: Proposals for panel sessions, hot topic sessions, embedded
tutorials and other invited sessions are especially welcome. The session
organizer(s) should discuss with the Program Chair a single page abstract
outlining the session or tutorial topic, together with a list of possible
contributors, by the deadline for submission.
The Program Committee will
decide if papers will be accepted as a long presentation (30 minutes), a short
presentation (15 minutes), or as a poster. For long and short presentations, 8
pages will be assigned in the published proceedings. A poster presentation will
be assigned 4 pages. Papers exceeding the page limit will be charged 50 Euro per
page in excess.
The Proceedings of DSD'2003 will be published by the IEEE
Computer Society.
Important Dates:
Submission of papers: March
3, 2003
Notification of acceptance: May 5, 2003
Deadline for final
version: June, 16, 2003
