2006 VLSI Technology Call For Papers SECOND ANNOUNCEMENT Sponsored by the IEEE Electron Devices Society and the Japan Society of Applied Physics In Cooperation with the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society Hilton Hawaiian Village Honolulu, Hawaii June 13 - 15, 2006 The 2006 Symposium on VLSI Technology welcomes submission of papers on all aspects of VLSI technology. The scope of the symposium is: - new concepts and breakthroughs in VLSI devices and processes - new functional devices including quantum effect devices with possible VLSI implementation - materials innovation for MOSFET and interconnect in VLSI - advanced lithography and fine patterning technologies for high density VLSI - process/device modeling of VLSI devices - packaging and reliability of VLSI devices - theories and fundamentals related to the above devices - new concepts and technologies for VLSI manufacturing SUBMISSION OF PAPERS Prospective authors must submit papers in the format of two pages of camera-ready copy to the web page: /20web Please note that a postal submission in hard copy will NOT be accepted. Those interested in submitting papers should access the above web. Detailed instructions will be updated in November. The papers are to be submitted in final form and, if accepted, will be published as submitted. To improve the probability for acceptance of a submitted paper, the paper should describe original work with specific results from experiments or simulations. The content of the paper must not be announced or published prior to the Symposium. Submissions from universities are encouraged. Partial travel expense support for students who are presenting papers is available upon request. Paper Submission Deadline is 22:00, January 8, 2006 (EST) INFORMATION AND REGISTRATION Prospective attendees can obtain further information and forms for Symposium registration and hotel reservations by contacting their respective secretariats. VLSI TECHNOLOGY SHORT COURSE A one-day short course will be held on June 12, 2006. Details will be given in the VLSI Technology Symposium Advance Program, which will be issued toward the end of March, 2006. SATELLITE WORKSHOP 2006 Silicon Nanoelectronics Workshop will be held on June 11-12, 2006 as a satellite workshop at the same location. Following this Symposium, the 2006 Symposium on VLSI Circuits will be held at the same location. See the reverse side. Secretariat for VLSI Symposia (USA) Widerkehr and Associates Suite 312 16220 S.
