DVCon U.S. 2016 Tutorial and Panel Proposals due October 2

Louisville, CO – August 25, 2015 – The 2016 Design and Verification Conference United States (DVCon U.S.), sponsored by Accellera Systems Initiative, is now accepting tutorial and panel proposals for its conference to be held February 29-March 3 at the DoubleTree Hotel in San Jose, California. Deadline for submissions is October 2, 2015.

DVCon U.S. is looking for tutorial topics that are current, have a high-level of interest and offer strong continuing educational content.  Over 300 qualified engineers attended the sponsored tutorials during DVCon U.S. 2015. Authors are asked to submit a short two to five paragraph abstract of the tutorial (1,000 words maximum). Tutorial sponsorships are available at the Gold or Silver levels.  More information about the tutorials and submission guidelines can be found at http://dvcon.org/call-tutorials

DVCon U.S. will host two focused panel sessions.  Topics should be focused within the hardware design and verification, advanced tools, and new methodologies areas and should encourage lively discussion and be engaging and somewhat controversial.   To view the panel submission guidelines, please visit http://dvcon.org/call-panels

The primary focus of DVCon U.S. is on the practical use of specialized design and verification languages such as SystemC, SystemVerilog and e, assertions in SVA or PSL, as well as the use of AMS languages, design automation using IP-XACT and the use of general purpose languages C and C++.  Content is highly technical and information is geared toward solving issues design and verification engineers face in their day-to-day work.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.

GaN for Humanoid Robots
Sponsored by Mouser Electronics and Infineon
In this episode of Chalk Talk, Eric Persson and Amelia Dalton explore why power is the key driver for efficient and reliable robot movements and how GaN technologies can help motor control solutions be more compact, integrated and efficient. They also investigate the role of field-oriented control in humanoid robotic applications and why the choice of a GaN power transistor can make all the difference in your next humanoid robot project!
