2013 26th IEEE International System-on-Chip Conference (SOCC)

System on Chip (SoC) has been the enabling technology behind the evolution of many of today’s ubiquitous technologies, such as mobile wireless devices, high definition television and video systems, high speed data communication and ambitious automotive solutions. System on Chip (SoC) devices today are everywhere and include some or all of the major electronics technologies, comprising digital, analog, RF, optical, and Nano-Electro-Mechanical Systems (NEMS). The latest advances in system developments, microprocessor architectures, and nanometer process technology are unleashing new opportunities, but are creating new challenges as well. Management of design and verification complexity, EDA tools, on-chip communication, and design reuse for SoCs are significant complications, and SoC fault detection is becoming more difficult as chip sizes increase. The SOC Conference is a premier forum for sharing advances in SoC technologies and applications in the areas of digital systems, circuit architectures, design methods, tools, automation, manufacturing, test, and emerging technologies. The 26th SOCC will be held at the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits in Erlangen (near Nuremberg), Germany and will offer three days of technical papers, technical workshops, and a vendor exhibition.
