Call For Papers
DSD 2021
Euromicro Conference on Digital System Design

Paper Submission Deadline: 5th May 2021
Notification of Acceptance: 5th June 2021
Camera-Ready Papers: 20th June 2021


The Euromicro Conference on Digital System Design (DSD) addresses all aspects of (embedded, pervasive and high-performance) digital and mixed HW/SW system engineering, covering the whole design trajectory from specification down to micro-architectures, digital circuits and VLSI implementations. It is a forum for researchers and engineers from academia and industry working on advanced investigations, developments and applications.

It focuses on today’s and future challenges of advanced embedded, high-performance and cyber-physical applications; system and processor architectures for embedded and high-performance HW/SW systems; design methodology and design automation for all design levels of embedded, high-performance and cyber-physical systems; modern implementation technologies from full custom in nanometer technology nodes, through FPGAs, to MPSoC infrastructures.

Authors are kindly invited to submit their work according (but not limited) to the main topics of the conference main track. In addition, several Special Sessions (with their own coordinators and subprogram committees) do also welcome contributions in specific themes of particular interest. All papers are reviewed following guidelines, quality requirements and thresholds that are common to all committees.

MAIN TOPICS

• Design and synthesis of systems, hardware and embedded software
• IoT, cyber-physical and embedded systems
• Systems-on-a-chip, networks-on-a-chip and systems-in-a-package
