The first edition of the
Training Courses on Compact Modeling (TCCM) will consist of a set of lectures addressing relevant topics in the compact modeling of advanced electron devices. Most of the courses will target compact modeling issues applicable to many electron devices. In particular, emphasis will be given on MOSFETs (bulk, SOI, Multi-Gate and High Voltage MOS structures) and HEMTs.
The
Training Courses on Compact Modeling will be held in
Tarragona (Catalonia, Spain) on June 30-July 1, in coordination with two other events partially or totally related to compact modeling: the 8th
Graduate Student Meeting on Electronic Engineering (June 28-29) and the
3rd International Workshop on Compact Thin Film Transistor Modeling (July 2).
The Training Courses on Compact Modeling are sponsored by the
FP7 “COMON” IAPP Project and the
Universitat Rovira i Virgili in collaboration with the
IEEE EDS Compact Modeling Technical Committee.
The Training Courses on Compact Modeling will be especially suited to researchers from both industry and academia working on electron device modeling, circuit and systems design and electronic design automated tools. In particular, the courses will be very interesting and useful to students working on these topics.
The General Chair Person is Prof. Benjamin IƱiguez, Universitat Rovira i Virgili, Tarragona, Spain.
The advanced registration fee will be 100 Euro for students and 130 Euro for non-students. After June 13, the registration fee is 150 Euro for students and 180 Euro for non-students. Members of the teams participating in the COMON project are exempted from paying the fee.
