Abstract

<P class=style17 align=justify>The International Symposium on Physical Design provides a premier forum to exchange ideas and promote research on critical areas related to the physical design of VLSI systems&#046; All aspects of physical design, including its interactions with architecture, behavioral&#8211; and logic&#8211;level synthesis, and back&#8211;end performance analysis and verification are within the scope of the symposium&#046; Target domains include semi&#8211;custom and full&#8211;custom IC&#8242;s, regular fabrics, FPGA&#8242;s, and systems&#8211;on&#8211;chip/systems&#8211;in&#8211;package&#046; Following its twenty predecessors, the 2012 symposium will highlight key new directions and leading&#8211;edge theoretical and experimental contributions to the field&#046; The ACM Press will publish accepted papers in the Symposium proceedings&#046; Topics of<BR>interest include but are not limited to:<BR><BR>&#8211; Floorplanning and interconnect planning<BR>&#8211; Interactions with behavior&#8211;level synthesis flows<BR>&#8211; Partitioning, placement and routing<BR>&#8211; Interactions with logic&#8211;level (re&#8211;)synthesis flows<BR>&#8211; Physical design for manufacturability and yield<BR>&#8211; Analysis and management of power dissipation<BR>&#8211; Synthesis optimizations within physical design<BR>&#8211; Management of design data and constraints<BR>&#8211; Estimation and modeling<BR>&#8211; New physical design methodologies<BR>&#8211; Timing and crosstalk issues in physical design<BR>&#8211; New paradigms in physical design<BR>&#8211; Special structures for clocking and power networks<BR>&#8211; Circuit performance measurements in a PD context<BR>&#8211; Physical design for emerging process technologies<BR>&#8211; Multithreaded/distributed algorithms in physical design <BR><BR></P>
