                          ---------------------------

    Driven by the rapid growth of the Internet, communication technologies,
    pervasive computing, and consumer electronics, Systems-on-Chip (SoC) have
    started to become a key issue in today's electronic industry. The transition
    from the traditional Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) to SoC
    has lead to new challenges in Design Methods, Automation, Manufacturing,
    Technology, and Test.

    The ASIC/SOC Conference provides a forum for sharing recent advances in
    VLSI/ULSI/GSI technology and design capabilities, and their application to
    meeting the engineering requirements for ASICs and SoCs. The 2001
    Conference will offer three days of technical papers and a full day of
    technical workshops. The best presented paper will be acknowledged by a
    Best Paper Award. Papers are invited which address new and previously
    unpublished developments in the following categories:

        modeling, IDDQ Studies
    V4 Failure Analysis C4 Future SoC Trends and Limits
                                               C5 SOC Overview and Tutorial Papers

    The paper must clearly state the advances proposed; therefore, sufficient
    results (measured or simulated) and diagrams must be presented to demonstrate
    the quality and originality of the contributed work. Submissions should clearly
    indicate the category (S1...C5; see above), include a 25 word condensed abstract
    (for publication in the Advance Program) and a full paper (limited to five double-
    column IEEE format pages, including figures and references). Proposals for tutorial
    papers, half-day and full-day tutorials/workshops, and for panel sessions are also
    invited.

    Send 3 copies of your paper, along with an electronic version (disk or CD-ROM)
    in PDF format to : 2001 ASIC/SOC Conference, 101 Lakeforest Blvd., #400-B,
    Gaithersburg, MD 20877, Fax: 301-527-0994, Email: wendyw@widerkehr.com. For
    questions on technical issues please contact the appropriate chairperson listed
    below.

                      DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION: APRIL 13, 2001
                     NOTIFICATION OF ACCEPTANCE: MAY 25, 2001
                   FINAL CAMERA-READY PAPERS DUE: JUNE 30, 2001
