Objectives

The aim of this contest is to promote students’ interests in the integrated circuit design fields and enhance their practical hardware implementation skills by providing competition between graduate and undergraduate students. The contest will be organized by the the IEEE Tunisia CAS Chapter in collaboration with the IEEE CEDA Tunisia Chapter.

Awards

Papers will be selected by a committee of international experts in the IC design field. The three best papers will be awarded by the IEEE Tunisia CAS Chapter. Further, the first authors of all selected works will be offered a free IEEE and CAS society registration for 2012. Besides, all selected papers will be included in the ICM 2011 proceeding and published in the IEEE Xplore database.

Submission

Interested students will have to submit an extended abstract (2 pages including figures to be sent to hassene.mnif@ieee.org) that describes the competition proposal. After a pre-contest selection, authors of the selected papers will have to submit an extended version of their works (4 pages/IEEE Template). The first author of each selected work will be offered one free day participation to ICM conference (www.ieee-icm.com) to present his paper in front of a jury.
