48th Design Automation Conference Creates “Cool WIP” Initiative

The Design Automation Conference (DAC) has created a Work-in-Progress (WIP) interactive track at DAC 2011 to allow participants an opportunity to present and discuss current work and early results. Accepted WIP submissions will be presented at an interactive poster session open to the DAC community. The 48th DAC will be held at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, California, from June 5-10, 2011.

A WIP submission must clearly specify a technical problem, outline a solution, and provide some early results. WIP submissions will be reviewed by DAC’s prestigious Technical Program Committee, consisting of 80 academic and industry experts in the field. Authors of accepted WIP submissions will have the option of placing a 100-word summary on the DAC web site. DAC organizers have dubbed this initiative “Cool WIP.”

 “Cool WIP provides researchers an opportunity to present work in the early formative stages,” said Soha Hassoun, DAC’s technical program co-chair. “Our aim with this new track is to give authors a chance for early feedback on their work from other members of the DAC community, and to provide the community with an interactive event that facilitates networking among attendees.”

WIP submissions must be received no later than 5 PM, MST, Friday, March 1, 2011. The WIP submission form and guidelines are available at http://www.dac.com.
