Abstract :
Euromicro Symposium on Digital System design: Architectures, Methods and Tools (DSD) addresses the key issues in design, architectures and implementation of digital systems. DSD is a discussion forum for researchers and engineers working on architectures and implementations of (embedded) digital systems, as well as efficient design methods and tools. It is a discussion forum for researchers and engineers working on state-of-the-art investigations, development, and applications in digital systems, processor and memory architectures, application specific processors, systems-on-a-chip, hardware/software co-design, circuit design, system validation, and design automation. This year, DSD2004 covers a broad spectrum of topics that includes processor, memory architecture, high level synthesis, logic synthesis, embedded systems and their applications, system-on-a-chip, FPGAs and their applications, validation and verification, specification and modeling and etc. This year, DSD attracted 97 submissions from 37 countries around the world.
