Thursday is Training Day at the 51st Design Automation Conference

LOUISVILLE, Colo. –– May 14, 2014 –– The  Design Automation Conference (DAC),  the premier conference devoted to the design and automation of electronic systems, will feature a day of training providing engineers with the latest techniques required for today’s designs. Four tracks of training will be held on Thursday, June 5th, 2014.  DAC 2014 will be held at Moscone Center in San Francisco, Calif. from June 1-5, 2014.  Conference registration is now open.

Each track of training comprises two separate half day sessions, in the morning from 9:00am to 12:30pm, and in the afternoon from 2:00pm to 5:30pm. All tracks are taught by professional training instructors from Doulos, the global leader in the development and delivery of training solutions for electronic design.

“On the back of last year’s success at the 50th DAC with the inaugural Thursday is Training Day, we are delighted to be partnering with DAC again in San Francisco to deliver a full day of intensive skills-based training in vital project-related subjects for the engineering community,” said Rob Hurley, Doulos CEO.  “This is a great opportunity not to be missed by any DAC attendee.”

The four training tracks are:

  • Track 1: SystemVerilog Verification
    • Part 1: Hardcore SystemVerilog for Class-Based Verification 
    • Part 2: Easier UVM
  • Track 2: ESL and SystemC

About DAC

The Design Automation Conference (DAC) is recognized as the premier event for the design of electronic circuits and systems, and for electronic design automation (EDA) and silicon solutions. A diverse worldwide community representing more than 1,000 organizations attends each year, represented by system designers and architects, logic and circuit designers, validation engineers, CAD managers, senior managers and executives to researchers and academicians from leading universities. Close to 60 technical sessions selected by a committee of electronic design experts offer information on recent developments and trends, management practices and new products, methodologies and technologies. A highlight of DAC is its exhibition and suite area with approximately 200 of the leading and emerging EDA, silicon, intellectual property (IP) and design services providers. The conference is sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), the Electronic Design Automation Consortium (EDA Consortium), and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and is supported by ACM’s Special Interest Group on Design.
