DASC '17: 36th IEEE/AIAA Digital Avionics Systems Conference,
St. Petersburg, Florida, U.S.A., September 2017.
Note:We had more than 250 participants from 30 countries, with significant participation from major aerospace and defense companies,
NASA, and other space agencies. Hurricane Irma had passed through the city of St. Petersburg, FL, just a week before the conference, but luckily
there was no major damage and the city was almost fully operational when the conference started.
HLDVT '16: 18th IEEE International High-Level Design Validation and Test Workshop,
Santa Cruz, California, U.S.A., October 2016.
Note:I resurrected HLDVT after a gap of three years (there were no editions in 2013, 2014, and 2015). This took an order of magnitude greater effort than organizing an
edition of a conference that has been held annually. This is an important conference, because high level of design, test, and formal verification become more critical with
every new generation of computer chips in order to bridge the gap between the increasing number of billions of transistors on a chip and the capabilities of SAT-based testing
and formal verification tools.
SRC@ICCAD '14: ACM Student Research Competition (SRC) at ICCAD,
San Jose, California, U.S.A., November 3 - 4, 2014.
Affiliated with the
33rd IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design,
San Jose, California, U.S.A., November 3 - 6, 2014.
Note:There were three rounds of SRC@ICCAD’14, where a panel of more than 25 experts from academia and industry evaluated
2-page abstracts and papers submitted by more than 50 students in the first round, selecting 22 students to advance to an in-person poster
presentation second round at ICCAD’14, and then selecting 6 students to give in-person presentations with slides in the third round also at
the conference. The student who won first place then advanced to the ACM Grand Finals, and won second place.

poster presentation second round at ICCAD’13, and then selecting 6 students to give in-person
presentations with slides in the third round also at the conference. The student
who won first place then advanced to the ACM Grand Finals, and won first place.
