[SM2ACD 2010] The International Workshop on Symbolic and Numerical Methods, Modeling and Applications to Circuit Design

The 11th edition of SM2ACD (The International Workshop on Symbolic and Numerical Methods, Modeling and Applications to Circuit Design) will take place in Gammarth- Tunisia, next 5 and 6 Oct. 2010.

Tutorials are offered to the SM2ACD participants on October 4.

Prof. Alain Fabre, from ENSEIRB Bordeaux-France will present the following tutorials:

1: Cognitive and Encrypted Communications, State of the Art for Frequency-Agile Filters,

2: A New Approach to Fully Active Frequency-Agile Filters for telecommunications, Design and Validation Results for an Agile Bandpass in SiGe-BiCMOS.

__

We recall that:

* All papers presented at SM2ACD 2010 will be published in the IEEE Xplore® database.

* A special issue consisting of the best presented papers will be published in the Analogue Integrated Circuits and Signal Processing International Journal,

* Awards will be delivered to the best contributions.

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

SM2ACD Topics include, but are not limited, to the following:

* Recent advances in analog CAD with focus on symbolic and/or numerical analysis and modeling techniques, design tools and methodologies,

* Symbolic and numerical methods for analog, mixed-signal, RF, wireless, multi-domain (MEMS, nanoelectronic, optoelectronic, biological, etc.) circuits and systems analysis and design,

* Novel circuit design methodologies and design automation enabled by behavioral modeling and/or symbolic techniques (including modeling, simulation, and optimization of timing, reliability, and yield for A/MS circuits),

* Linear and nonlinear model reduction and computer-aided macromodeling,

* Optimization techniques applied to analog, RF and mixed circuits,

* High Level Synthesis Techniques,

* Graphs and Circuits & Systems Theory and Applications,

* Symbolic/numerical methods in innovative electrical/electronic engineering education.

Deadline of submission of draft papers: June 15, 2010

NB: very entertaining social programs are planned (see SM2ACD 2010 website –social activities-).
