ISQED'07 Addresses Quality Design Challenges, Trends, and Proven Techniques with Over 100 Paper Presentations

The eighth annual IEEE International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (ISQED) announced confirmed keynote speeches by industry leaders from Cadence, iRoC Technologies, Mentor Graphics, NXP Semiconductor, Samsung, and Synopsys who will discuss challenging issues in respects to quality in electronic design. Additionally the conference features twenty-three technical sessions with over 100 papers on various challenging topics related to design, design for manufacturability and quality, panel discussions, tutorials, and exhibits. The conference is being held on March 26-28, 2007 at the DoubleTree Hotel in San Jose, CA, USA.

The technical agenda of this conference will include technical panel discussion sessions, where leading experts, address the important issue surrounding electronic design, design for yield and manufacturability. These panels would focus on the following topics:

•  DFM: EDA's Salvation or Its Excuse for Being out of Touch with Engineering?

•  Do Digital Design and Variability Mix Like Oil and Water?

Multiple interactive tutorials will also be available for those who desire in-depth, interactive, and focused insight into the various aspects of electronic design. These tutorials will cover topic such as Multi-Gate MOSFET Design, Sub 45nm Low Power Design Challenges, Self-adaptive systems, DFM, DFY, Debug and Diagnosis, DFT and Test, Quality-driven Architecture Synthesis and Power Aware Design of Embedded SoCs and Statistical Static Timing Analysis.

"The ISQED conference continues to be an integral cog in the semiconductor ecosystem where design disciplines - design, manufacturing, and test are reinforced, shared and practiced," said Dr. Jeong-Taek Kong, senior vice president at Samsung Electronics and ISQED keynote speaker. "The ISQED focus is on the current challenges in achieving quality of design and design methodologies and provides insight into future trends and related issues."
