2016 ISVLSI

Pittsburgh PA

Jul 10 - 13, 2016

This Symposium explores emerging trends and novel ideas and concepts in the area of VLSI. The Symposium covers a range of topics: from VLSI circuits, systems and design methods to system level design and system-on-chip issues, to bringing VLSI experience to new areas and technologies. Future design methodologies as well as new CAD tools to support them will also be the key topics. ISVLSI 2016 highlights a special theme of cyber-physical system. Over almost two decades the Symposium has been a unique forum promoting multidisciplinary research and new visionary approaches in the area of VLSI. The Symposium is bringing together leading scientists and researchers from academia and industry. The papers from this symposium have been published as the special issue to top archival journals. This fact indicates a very high quality of the symposium papers, and we are determined to keep a strong emphasis on this critical aspect of any conference. The symposium proceedings are published by IEEE-CS conference publication services (CPS). The Symposium has established a reputation in bringing well-known international scientists as invited speakers, and this trend will continue.

We are excited to use Whova as our event management solution.
