IEEE CEDA Community Calls | March 2021

Community Calls Call for Papers: ICCAD 2021 2021 International Conference On Computer Aided Design 1-4 November 2021  |  Hilton Munich Park, Munich, Germany ICCAD is the premier conference devoted to technical innovations in Electronic Design Automation. Original technical submissions on, but not limited to, the following topics are invited: System-level CAD, Synthesis, Verification, Physical Design, Analysis, Simulation, and Modeling, and CAD for Emerging Technologies, Paradigms. Paper submissions must be made through the online submission system at the ICCAD website. Regular papers will be reviewed as finished papers; preliminary submissions will be at a disadvantage. Research papers with open-source software are highly encouraged where the software will be made publicly available (via GitHub or similar) with the camera-ready version if the paper has been accepted. For more information on ICCAD 2021, visit the conference website. Important Deadlines Abstract Submissions: 21 May Full Paper Submissions: 28 May   Call for Papers Call for Articles: D&T Special Issue on Testability and Dependability of AI Hardware Deadline to Submit: 15 April 2021 In recent years, there has been an expedited trend in embracing bold and radical innovation of computer architectures, aiming at the continuation of computing performance improvement despite the slowed-down physical device scaling. One new frontier in the field of computing architecture is about AI (Artificial Intelligence) hardware, including AI hardware accelerators and neuromorphic computing processors. AI hardware has undergone a transformation from general-purpose computing to domain-specific computing (especially for deep learning applications), from Von Neumann architecture to non-Von Neumann architecture, etc. While the main focus nowadays is still functional implementation, the testability and dependability of these new architectures need to be addressed before the mainstream adoption of any emerging technology. This special issue seeks original manuscripts that will cover innovative research proposing solutions for the testability and dependability challenges in the following fields: AI hardware accelerators and Neuromorphic computing. This special issue is organized by Fei Su, Intel Corporation, USA; Chunsheng Liu, Alibaba Inc., USA; and Haralampos-G. Stratigopoulos, Sorbonne Université, CNRS, LIP6, France. More information about the issue and related submission guidelines can be found here. The article submission deadline is on April 15, 2021. Call for Papers Call for Papers, Workshops, Tutorials, and Special Sessions: ESWEEK 2021 10-15 October 2021  |  Virtual Conference Embedded Systems Week (ESWEEK) is the premier event covering all aspects of hardware and software design for smart, intelligent and connected computing systems.
