CALL FOR PAPERS
The Ninth IEEE Workshop on RTL and High Level Testing
Nov. 27-28, 2008 ACU (Advanced Center for Universities), Sapporo, Japan
Sponsored by
IEEE Computer Society Test Technology Technical Council
Technical Group on Dependable Computing, IEICE
Scope
The purpose of this workshop is to bring researchers and practitioners on LSI testing from
all over the world together to exchange ideas and experiences on register transfer level
(RTL) and high level testing. WRTLT'08, the ninth workshop, will be held in conjunction
with the 17th Asian Test Symposium (ATS'08) in Sapporo, Japan. Areas of interest include
but are not limited to:
(1) High level testing -- RTL/Behavior level testing, High level approaches for testing,
RTL ATPG, RTL DFT, RTL BIST, Synthesis for testability, Relationship between RTL
and gate level testing, Functional fault modeling, High level test bench generation
(2) SoC testing -- Test scheduling, Core testing, Interconnect testing, NoC testing
(3) Reliable SoC -- System level reliability, Self repair, Fault tolerant SoC
(4) Micro processor testing
(5) Design Verification
(6) Gate level test related issues -- Low power testing, Test compression, ATPG, DFT,
BIST
This year we will set up the theme of "Power/Thermal-Aware Testing", which we believe
needs to be discussed not only at gate level but also from high level in this workshop.
Paper submissions related to this theme are especially welcomed. Panel discussion and a
special session on this theme are being planned.
We hope and expect this workshop provides an ideal forum for frank discussion on this
important topic for the future system-on-a-chip (SoC) devices.
Submissions
Authors are invited to submit paper proposals for presentation at the workshop. The
proposal may be an extended summary (1,000 words) or a full paper and should include:
title, full name and affiliation of all authors, 50 words abstract, keywords and the name of
contact author. All submissions should be sent to the following address as Postscript or
PDF attachment.
[email protected]
The submission will be considered evidence that upon acceptance the author(s) will
prepare the final manuscript in time for inclusion in the digests and will present the paper
at the Workshop.
Key Dates
Submission deadline: August 4, 2008
Notification of acceptance: September 11, 2008
