2001 Symposium on VLSI circuits

The Symposium on VLSI Circuits will meet 14–16 June 2001 in Kyoto, Japan at the Rihga Royal Hotel. This year the technical program committee has reviewed close to 170 submissions to the conference. By the time readers receive this issue of the Newsletter, the Program Committee will have selected the top 40% of submissions for inclusion in the technical program. The three days of technical presentations and informal evening rump sessions are a companion conference to the Symposium on VLSI Technology, which precedes it at the same hotel. The one-day overlap in the schedules for the Technology and Circuits meetings features a Short Course, Physical Design for Low Power and High Performance Microprocessor Circuits, as well as a Joint Rump Session on Merits/Limitations of GaAs, SiGe, Bipolar, SOI CMOS, and bulk CMOS in RF.
