Munich, Germany – March 15th, 2018 – The Design and Verification Conference & Exhibition Europe (DVCon Europe), sponsored by Accellera Systems Initiative, has announced the call for papers, tutorials and panels for the next conference to be held in Munich Germany on October 24th and 25th, 2018.
DVCon Europe is the premier technical conference in Europe focused on state-of-the-art design and verification techniques that target the most complex electronic systems and devices development challenges. It provides attendees with practical, informative detail on the latest design and verification methodologies, techniques and technologies shared by Electronic Design Automation (EDA) end-users and tool vendors alike.
The 2018 conference invites papers, tutorials and panels on a range of topics, including: Electronic System Level (ESL) design, verification and validation, Intellectual Property (IP) reuse and design automation, functional safety and security, and mixed signal & low power design & verification. Topics of particular interest include: architectural and algorithm exploration techniques including the use of SystemC, verification methodologies that involve the Universal Verification Methodology (UVM), mixed signal modeling and verification, formal and assertion-based verification, hardware/software co-design/co-verification, working with safety & security standards such as ISO 26262 and DO-254, and application of the emerging Accellera Portable Test and Stimulus Standard (PSS).
“2018 will be a year of exciting developments using established as well as emerging EDA standards, tools and methodologies,” noted Martin Barnasconi, DVCon Europe 2018 General Chair. “DVCon Europe has proven to be the place for technical experts to learn about these new techniques and their application in Europe. Since its inception five years ago, the conference has earned a reputation for technical excellence, where a published paper receives broad interest and acclaim. Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of the growing DVCon Europe community.”
Initial submissions for papers should contain a minimum of 600 words and should provide enough technical detail for the Technical Program Committee to evaluate the proposed paper prior to writing a full manuscript. The deadline for paper submissions is April 11th, 2018. Tutorial submission abstracts of a maximum of 600 words or three pages are invited for the DVCon Europe 90 minute tutorial sessions. Panel proposals for two panel sessions are also invited of two pages in length. The deadline for tutorial and panel submissions is April 18th, 2018.
