The Conference offers a unique opportunity for engineers working at the cutting edge of IC design and application to maintain technical currency, and to network with leading experts. CONFERENCE TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS On Sunday, February 19th, the day before the official opening of the Conference, ISSCC 2012 offers: • A choice of up to 4 of a total of 9 Tutorials • A choice of 1 of 2 Advanced-Circuit-Design Forums The 90-minute tutorials offer background information and a review of the basics in specific circuit-design topics. In the all-day Advanced-Circuit-Design Forums, leading experts present state-of-the-art design strategies in a workshop-like format. The Forums are targeted at designers experienced in the technical field. On Sunday evening, there are two events: A Special-Topic Session entitled, “What’s Next in Robots?.....” will be offered starting at 8:00pm. In addition, the Student Research Preview, featuring short presentations followed by a poster session from selected graduate-student researchers from around the world will begin at 7:30 pm. A distinguished circuit designer, Professor Willy Sansen will provide introductory remarks at the Preview. On Monday, February 20th, ISSCC 2012 offers four plenary papers on the theme: “Silicon Systems for Sustainability”. On Monday at 12:15 pm, there will be a Women’s Networking Event, a luncheon. On Monday afternoon, there will be five parallel technical sessions, followed by a Social Hour open to all ISSCC attendees. The Social Hour held in conjunction with the Book Display will also include the Academic Demonstration Session (ADS), featuring posters and live demonstrations for selected papers from universities. Monday evening features a panel discussion on “Is RF Doomed to Digitization?…..”, as well as two Special- Topic Sessions on “Technologies that Could Change the World…..”, and “Optical PCB Interconnects…..”. On Tuesday, February 21st, there are five parallel morning and afternoon technical sessions. A Social Hour open to all ISSCC attendees will follow. The Social Hour held in conjunction with the Book Display will include the Industrial Demonstration Session (IDS), featuring posters and live demonstrations for selected papers from industry. Tuesday evening sessions include two evening panels on “Little-Known Features of Well-Known Creatures”, and “What is the Next RF Frontier?”, as well as one Special-Topic Session on “Vision for Future Television”. On Wednesday, February 22nd, there will be five parallel sessions morning and afternoon. On Thursday, February 23rd, ISSCC offers a choice of five events: • A Short Course on “Low-Power Analog Signal Processing” • Four Advanced-Circuit-Design Forums on high-speed data communications, computational imaging, bioelectronics, and many-core SoC optimization Registration for educational events will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Use of the ISSCC Web-Registration Site (http://www.isscc.org) is strongly encouraged. Registrants will be provided with immediate confirmation on registration for Tutorials, Advanced-Circuit- Design Forums, and the Short Course. Need Additional Information?
