Call For Papers (pdf file:190kb)

Aims of the Conference:

ASP-DAC 2007 is the twelfth in a series of annual international conferences on VLSI design automation. Asia and South Pacific region is one of the most active regions of design and fabrication of silicon chips in the world. The conference aims are providing the Asian and South Pacific CAD/DA and Design community with opportunities of interchanging ideas and collaboratively discussing the directions of the technologies related to all of Electronic Design Automation (EDA). The goal of the conference is to provide a forum for presentation, discussion, and observation of the state-of-the-art of EDA technologies and design methodologies of electronic systems. The format of the meeting intends to cultivate and promote an instructive and productive interchange among EDA researchers/developers, and system/circuit/device designers. A wide variety of those scientists, engineers, and students who are interested in theoretical issues on EDA are also welcome.
