Technical conference panels, organised by such leading companies as Mentor Graphics, IBM, TSMC, LSI Logic, ARM and edacentrum, will hold discussions on current issues facing design engineers.
Each of the five conference panels will bring together experts on the appointed topics for a lively and informative conversation.
Panels include: "Who benefits from assertions?"; "Design-for-test considerations for mergeable cores"; "Design productivity: what is it, and why to measure?"; "Have FPGAs hit the wall? Is ASIC dead? What silicon solutions should you pick?" and "Design-for-manufacturing to minimise the number of respins".
"A unique and distinguishing feature of DesignCon events is our array of high-quality complimentary educational programmes presented by venerable members of the semiconductor and electronic design communities", explained John Janowiak, Senior Director of the IEC.
In addition to panel discussions and singular addresses, Euro DesignCon's hands-on free programming comes in the form of its impressive technology exhibition, featuring EDA tool providers, semiconductor vendors, IP providers and system OEMs.
Delegates will benefit from meeting leading companies from around the globe demonstrating their latest products and offering a first-hand look at their functionality.
In addition to its abundant complimentary curriculum, Euro DesignCon features paid educational conference programming including 40 technical papers and seven TecForum tutorials providing in-depth perspectives in design verification, silicon system design, chip-level physical design, test and debug, high-speed interconnect systems, automotive system design and wireless communication system design.
Euro DesignCon 2004 will take place from 11th to 14th October 2004 at the ArabellaSheraton Grand Hotel in Munich, Germany.
