CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN ICCAD-91 Submission Due Date: April 12, 1991 The 1991 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN will be held November 10-14, 1991, in Santa Clara, CA.. ICCAD is oriented towards Electrical Engineering CAD professionals, concentrating on CAD for Electronic Circuit Design. AREAS OF INTEREST Original technical papers on (but not limited to) the following topics are invited: 1) HIGH LEVEL SIMULATION 2) SIMULATION 3) HIGH LEVEL SYNTHESIS 4) LOGIC SYNTHESIS 5) LAYOUT VERIFICATION/ANALOG CIRCUIT DESIGN 6) PLACEMENT AND FLOORPLANNING 7) ROUTING 8) TESTING 9) CAD FRAMEWORKS AUTHOR INFORMATION Authors should submit: 1) 12 copies of a one-paragraph abstract, and 2) 12 copies of the completed paper not to exceed 18 double-spaced pages, figures and tables included. Excessively long submissions and previously published papers will be returned to the authors. NOTE: Papers will be reviewed anonymously. Therefore ONLY the cover page should identify authors and their affiliations! FORMAT The ONE-PARAGRAPH ABSTRACT, typed on one separate page, should clearly and precisely state what is new and point out the signifi- cant results. The paper should be as close as possible to the paper as you would expect to see it appear if published. In the detailed description, the author must objectively address why the proposed contribution is superior to prior work or what the signi- ficance of the contribution is, if breaking new ground. Demonstra- tion of superiority in algorithms and strategies with heuristics is required through a description of the programming implementation and application to "real" problems. Additional mathematical proofs are welcome. The contribution should address an area of current technical interest to the CAD professional. A clear description of the new contribution, status of the work and significant examples and appropriate results should be given. COVER PAGE REQUIREMENTS Submissions should include, on the cover page: the title of the paper; the category 1-9, which most clearly matches the paper's content (see Areas of Interest); the full name, complete return address, telephone number and affiliation of each author; and clear identification of the individual to whom all communication should be addressed. In giving your return address, please consider that the communications for paper acceptance and mailing of the author's kit occur in the month of July.
