CALL FOR PAPERS
1985 CHAPEL HILL CONFERENCE ON VLSI
MAY 15-17, 1985
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
This is the seventh in the series of annual conferences on advanced research
in VLSI (very large scale integration) that have been held since 1979 at
Caltech and at MIT. These conferences bring together leading specialists in
the wide scope of work relating to the realization of complex computing
systems in VLSI. This year's conference seeks to emphasize work on the
effects of VLSI on the design of algorithms and on the design of complete,
integrated systems. The conference will continue to be small and informal.
Speakers will be urged to explain the relevance of their work to
non-specialists.
CONTRIBUTED PAPERS are sought in the following and related areas:
- device modeling and fabrication - hardware design languages
- design automation - silicon compilation
- simulation - systems architecture
- testing - special-purpose architecture
- parallel architectures - theoretical issues
- parallel algorithms
DRAFT PAPERS (5 copies) should be sent by JANUARY 15, 1985 to:
Henry Fuchs, Program Chair
Dept. of Computer Science
New West Hall 035A
Univ. of North Carolina
Chapel Hill, NC 27514
(919)966-4650
Notification of acceptance will be sent to authors by February 15.
Camera-ready copies of papers for the Proceedings will be due March 15.
PROCEEDINGS: Bound proceedings, to be published by Computer Science Press,
will be distributed to attendees at the start of the conference and available
later from the publisher.
INVITED SPEAKERS: A list of invited speakers will be available with the
registration invitations.
ATTENDANCE: Attendance is by invitation only. For information, please write:
