Scope broadened to include embedded software. Calls for papers, tutorials and panels issued.
Munich, Germany – March 21st, 2019 - The Design and Verification Conference & Exhibition Europe (DVCon Europe), sponsored by Accellera Systems Initiative, has announced the call for papers, tutorials and panels for the next conference, which will be held at the Holiday Inn Munich City Centre, on October 29th and 30th, 2019. This year sees the conference broadening its scope by welcoming contributions covering embedded software, and there will be a new session on model-based and model-supported software design. Deadlines for initial abstracts are April 9th (for papers) and April 23rd (tutorials and panels).
The event is in its sixth year and grew 20% in 2018. Following successful co-location last year, the SystemC Evolution Day will again be held at the same venue, on October 31st.
This year’s General Chair of the Steering Committee is Joachim Geishauser, of NXP Semiconductor, who is based in Munich. Geishauser has played an active role since the launch of DVCon Europe, having acted as Panel Chair and Tutorial Chair in previous years. As a Senior Staff Engineer at NXP Semiconductor, Geishauser is a verification methodology lead and has published several papers.
“In the past five years, DVCon Europe has grown into a well-respected conference; its credibility enhanced by that fact that it is developed by users, for users,” noted Geishauser. “This year, to address the multi-disciplinary challenges our industry is facing, DVCon Europe will broaden its scope in the call for papers and tutorials, by including embedded software. As chair of DVCon Europe 2019, I encourage embedded software developers to come to the conference to share their challenges and get to see what the hardware side is working on.”
The 2019 conference invites papers, tutorials and panels on a range of subjects, including special interest areas such as digital twin, machine learning, RISC-V, next generation automotive and 5G.
The new session on model-based and model supported software design joins existing topics such as Electronic System Level (ESL) design, verification and validation; Intellectual Property (IP) reuse and design automation; functional safety and security; mixed signal and low power design and verification: underlining DVCon Europe’s commitment to the examination and discussion of design and verification methodologies and standards.
