		       Sponsored by: ACM SIGDA
	       With the Technical Support of: IEEE CAS

The 15th edition of GLSVLSI will be held on April 17-19, 2005 in
Chicago, Illinois. Original, unpublished papers, describing research
in the general area of VLSI are solicited. Both theoretical and
experimental research results are welcome. Proceedings will be
published by the ACM and will be included on the SIGDA compendium
CD-ROM.

A "Best Student Paper Award" will be voted on by the technical program
committee. Only papers with a student as first author will be
eligible. A laptop, generously donated by Intel, with a mobil Intel
Pentium 4 processor M will be awarded to the winning paper's
first author at the symposium.

Due to the holiday season, the paper submission deadline is firmly set
on December 17, 2004 at 5:00 pm PST.  Also, GLSVLSI does not consider
double papers.  Papers that are currently pending at other conferences
will be automatically rejected.  For each submission, once accepted
(as a regular paper, or a short paper, or a poster paper), at least
one of the authors must register for and attend the symposium.

Program Tracks:
VLSI Design: design of ASICs, microprocessors and micro-architectures,
embedded processors, analog/digital/mixed-signal systems, multi-chip
modules, FPGAs.

VLSI Circuits: analog/digital/mixed-signal circuits, RF and
communication circuits, chaos/neural/fuzzy-logic circuits,
high-speed/low-power circuits.

Computer-Aided Design (CAD): hardware/software co-design, logic and
behavioral synthesis, logic mapping, simulation and formal
verification, layout (partitioning, placement, routing, floorplanning,
compaction, etc.), algorithms and complexity analysis.

Low Power Design: circuits, micro-architectural techniques, CAD
support, power estimation methodologies and tools.

Testing, Reliability, Fault-Tolerance: digital/analog/mixed-signal
testing, design for testability and reliability, online testing
techniques, static and dynamic defect- and fault-recoverability.

Emerging Technologies: nanotechnology, molecular electronics, quantum
devices, biologically-inspired computing, resonant tunneling devices,
single electron transistors, design, modeling, and simulation tools
for emerging technology devices and circuits.
