The DAC Engineering Tracks

The DAC Engineering Tracks form the heart of the conference technical program, offering a premier forum for the global community of designers, developers, architects, engineers, researchers, and executives. Each track delivers practical insights and real-world experiences from leading companies and practitioners, covering the complete design ecosystem—from front-end exploration and system-level design, to back-end implementation, IP integration, and system/software co-design. Through presentations, posters, invited talks, and panels, attendees gain actionable knowledge, sharpen their expertise, and connect with peers shaping the future of electronic design.
