IEEE Computer Society Annual Symposium on VLSI, Pittsburg, USA (July 2016)

This Symposium, to be held in July 11-13, 2016, Pittsburgh, PA, USA, explores emerging trends and novel ideas and concepts in the area of VLSI. The Symposium covers a range of topics: from VLSI circuits, systems and design methods to system level design and system-on-chip issues, to bringing VLSI experience to new areas and technologies. Future design methodologies as well as new CAD tools to support them will also be the key topics. ISVLSI 2016 highlights a special theme of cyber-physical system.

The papers from this symposium have been published as the special issue to top archival journals. The symposium proceedings are published by IEEE-CS conference publication services (CPS). The Symposium has established a reputation in bringing well-known international scientists as invited speakers, and this trend will continue.

Contributions are sought in the following areas:

1) Analog and Mixed-Signal Circuits (AMS)
2) Computer-Aided Design and Verification (CAD)
3) Digital Circuits and FPGA based Designs (DCF)
4) Emerging and Post-CMOS Technologies (EPT)
5) System Design and Security (SDS)
6) Testing, Reliability, and Fault-Tolerance (TRF)

The Symposium Program will include contributed papers and speakers invited by the Program Committee as well as a poster session. The keynotes, special sessions and Student Research Forum are planned as well. Authors are invited to submit full-length, original, unpublished papers. To enable blind review, the author list should be omitted from the main document.

Paper submission deadlines:
Special Session Proposal Deadline: January 22, 2016 
Paper Submission Deadline: February 19, 2016 
Student Research Forum Submission Deadline: February 19, 2016  
Acceptance Notification: April 15, 2016 
Submission of Final Version: May 13, 2016

Authors of a selected top quality papers from ISVLSI 2016 depending on the technical scope will be invited to submit extended versions of these papers to Special Issues like "Nanoelectronic Devices and Circuits for Next Generation Sensing and Information Processing" in IEEE TNANO and "Circuit and System Design Automation for Internet of Things" in IEEE TCAD.
