GAINESVILLE, Fla., Feb. 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The 34th annual Design and Verification Conference and Exhibition U.S. ( DVCon U.S.), sponsored by Accellera Systems Initiative, begins next week on an exciting, interactive virtual platform. The comprehensive technical program and exhibition, with plenty of networking opportunities, runs February 28-March 3.

Because it’s a virtual conference that will also be available on-demand, attendees can join from all over the globe with access to a wide variety of topics among the 42 papers, five tutorials, 14 posters, two panels, 10 short workshops, a UVM Birds of a Feather, and a keynote focused on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for faster verification closure.

DVCon has partnered with Gather.Town this year to offer attendees more opportunities to interact with presenters and colleagues in a more natural way, being able to “walk” up to each other and have a conversation. The game-like atmosphere is combined with modern video-conferencing technology. The posters, coffee breaks and exhibition will take place on the Gather.Town platform. Gather.Town meeting areas will be open throughout the conference so attendees can meet and explore it at their leisure.
