IEEE COMPUTER SOCIETY 1990 WORKSHOP ON VLSI February 18 - 21, 1990 Tampa, Florida Purpose: The purpose of this workshop is to provide a forum for presentation and discussion of the progress and problems of current interest in VLSI. Sessions are planned on the following topics: Synthesis and Verification, Cad Frameworks, Design for Testability, Interactive Manufacturing, Design with Programmable Technologies, and Asynchronous Design For Digital Systems. Two keynote talks are also scheduled. This annual workshop is sponsored by the IEEEComputer Society Technical Committee on VLSI and the University of South Florida. Participation: All presentations will be given by speakers that the Program Committee has invited. There will be no proceedings so that the speakers will be able to present their most recent results and ideas. Attendance at the workshop is limited to 80 persons to encourage interaction. Workshop Registration: The registration fee of $200 for IEEE members and $250 for non-members includes three dinners, three Continental breakfasts, coffee breaks and workshop fees. The registration form at the end of this mesagage must be received no later than January 18, 1990.
