Papers are wanted for a special session on design, analysis and tools for integrated circuits and systems at Datics 2008, being held on 22-24 July on Crete Island, Greece.

The main target of the session at the WSEAS CSCC multi-conference is to bring together software/hardware engineering researchers, computer scientists, practitioners and industry experts to exchange theories, ideas, techniques and experiences related to all areas of DATICS (e.g. digital, analog and mixed-signal circuits as well as real-time, hybrid and embedded systems).

The special session will also focus on the field of formal methods and low power design methodologies for integrated circuits.

Topics include:

* Digital, analog, mixed-signal designs and test
* Design-for-testability and built-in self test methodologies
* EDA tools for design, testing and verification
* Network and system on-a-chip
* Application-specific SoCs
* Specification languages: SystemC, SystemVerilog and UML
* All areas of modelling, simulation and verification

The deadline for paper submission is 1 May 2008. Please visit the website for further information on submission guidelines, proceedings and publications, and international technical reviewers.
