NDES 2012 July 11 – 13, 2012, Wolfenbüttel, Germany

The conference aims at stimulating and enabling scientists from all over the world to exchange know-ledge and ideas in the field of nonlinear dynamics and its applications in a friendly atmosphere. Nonlinear phenomena are observed in diverse areas such as physics, biology, economics, electronics and computer science. The conference will cover cutting-edge research in these highly active fields and explore new perspectives of nonlinear dynamics in interdisciplinary applications. The scope of interest includes, but it is not limited to:

• Theory, analysis, modelling, implementations and applications of nonlinear circuits and systems in science, technology and biology
• Nonlinear network analysis
• Neural networks, neurodynamics, robots 
• Nonlinear signal processing: Time-series analysis, communication, coding
• Nonlinear devices: Sensors, lasers
• Bifurcation and chaos, control and synchronisation
• Geodynamics

Agilent Technologies Completes Acquisition of Accelicon Technologies' Solutions for Semiconductor Device Modeling

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Feb. 21, 2012
Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today announced that Accelicon Technologies' software solutions and technology for device-level modeling and validation in the electronics industry are now part of Agilent. The two companies had announced an acquisition agreement on Dec. 1, 2011. Financial details were not disclosed.
The acquisition, led by Agilent's EEsof EDA organization, further enhances Agilent's leadership in semiconductor device modeling. Accurate, verified device models are critical to reduce R&D design cycles as higher frequencies, smaller technology nodes, new materials and device layouts call for more accurate process design kits. As part of the Software and Modular Solutions Division, Agilent EEsof continues to integrate its industry-leading design simulation with real measurements to improve design efficiency for engineers who develop communications systems. These improved tools and processes solve the increasing complexities they face when designing communications systems for aerospace/defense and commercial wireless applications.
Agilent's newly acquired solutions from Accelicon include MBP for device-level extraction and model generation, MQA for device-level model validation and AMA for advanced model analysis, including layout effects.
Accelicon was founded in 2002 by noted industry veteran Dr. Xisheng Zhang, who has now joined Agilent along with former Accelicon CEO Tim K. Smith. The majority of the former Accelicon employees are located in Beijing; they are also now part of Agilent.

8th International Conference on Organic Electronics

Tarragona, Spain June 25‐27, 2012 

Organic electronics is a rapidly growing technology that is anticipated to compare with conventional microelectronics in the near future to make transistor circuits, displays and solar cells. Other application like sensors are expected. The International Conference on Organic Electronics was held from 2005 to 2008 in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. In 2009, ICOE moved to Liverpool, United Kingdom, in 2010 to Paris, in 2011 in Rome, while the 2012 edition will be held at the campus of University Rovira i Virgili (URV) in Tarragona, Spain. The conference intends to cover all aspects of organic electronics, including materials and chemistry, transistors, OLEDs, photovoltaic cells, circuits and circuit design, manufacturing and inclusion in systems. Technical areas include, but are not limited to: 

• Materials and chemistry 
• Transistors 
• OLEDs Photovoltaic cells 
• Circuits and circuit design 
• Manufacturing and inclusion in systems 
• Modelling 

The conference will be held in coordination with two other events, partially related to the topic: the 10th Graduate Student Meeting on Electronic Engineering (June 21-22) and the 2nd International Training Course on Compact Modelling (TCCM 2012) (June 28-29).
