Modeling of Systems and Parameter Extraction Working Group
9th International MOS-AK Workshop
(co-located with the CMC Meeting and IEDM Conference)
December 7, 2016 Berkeley
The MOS-AK Association, a global compact/SPICE modeling and Verilog-A standardization forum, held its annual Q4 event on December 7, 2016 UC Berkeley as its 9th consecutive International MOS-AK Workshop. The event was coordinated by Larry Nagel, OEC (USA) and Andrei Vladimirescu, UCB (USA); ISEP (FR) representing the International MOS-AK Board of R&D Advisers. The workshop was hosted by Prof. Jaijeet Roychowdhury of EECS at the University of California at Berkeley and co-sponsored by Keysight Technologies and NEEDS of nanoHUB.org.
The workshop provided presentations from the leading developers of compact device models. The audience spanned the full range of the semiconductor industry, including representatives from foundries, model characterization services firms, academic researchers investigating emerging device technologies, and design companies. The amount and breadth of technical information discussed was vast -- here are but a few highlights by ChipGuy:<https://www.semiwiki.com/forum/content/6542-its-all-about-models.html>

The MOS-AK Modeling Working Group has various deliverables and initiatives, including: a book entitled "Open Source CAD Tools for Compact Modeling" <www.mos-ak.org/books>; an open Verilog-A directory with compact models <http://www.mos-ak.org/open_dir/>; and supporting FOSS TCAD/CAD software.
The MOS-AK Association plans to continue its standardization efforts by organizing additional compact modeling meetings, workshops and courses in Europe, USA, India and China throughout 2017 year, including:
- Spring MOS-AK Workshop in Lausanne at DATE Conference (March 31 2017)
<http://www.mos-ak.org/lausanne_2017> - 2nd Sino MOS-AK Workshop in Hangzhou (June 2017)
<http://www.mos-ak.org/hangzhou_2017> - 15th MOS-AK ESSDERC/ESSCIRC Workshop in Leuven (Sept.11, 2017)
