The general technical scope of the workshop is the design, analysis and prediction of interconnect and communication fabrics in electronic systems&#046; The organizing committee invites original contributions to the workshop&#046; These contributions include papers, tutorials, panels, and special sessions&#046; Regular papers will be double blind reviewed&#046; Submissions with author information will be rejected&#046; We accept papers based on novelty and contributions&#046; The accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of SLIP 2012, which will also be included in the ACM Digital Library&#046; Note that ACM will hold the copyright for SLIP 2012 proceedings&#046; Authors of accepted papers must sign an ACM copyright release form for their papers&#046;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text&#8211;align: justify; line&#8211;height: normal; text&#8211;autospace: none;
