Accept/Reject Notification - March 18, 2021
The following guidelines should be followed when preparing your slides for submission:
*Note: The presentation format described above is what is required for your paper to be reviewed by the Technical Program committee to decide Accept/Reject. The final presentation delivered at DAC will be made up of a Title slide, Author slide and 12 content slides. The expectation is that the final presentation will expand on the submission presentation.
To spare experts from industry the many hours of preparation associated with a regular manuscript submission, Embedded Systems Track submissions are in the form of a 6-slide PowerPoint presentation. Authors of the highest quality submissions will be invited to present their work in Embedded Systems Track sessions at the conference and a poster on same subject during an Embedded Systems Track poster session. Other authors may also be invited to present a poster during an Embedded Systems Track poster session.
The Embedded Systems Track is aimed at industry experts in hardware/embedded systems design and embedded systems and software developers. This complements DAC’s strong research focus on algorithms and methodology. The Embedded Systems Track aims to illustrate benefits and challenges of EDA tool usage, the process of creating successful hardware and software products and/or IP, and to provide educational and networking benefits for both end-users and tool developers. Naturally, the topics cut across hardware (GPU/CPU/SOC/ASIC/FPGA/Memory) and software design, IP and automation, given the rise of highly integration systems in today’s design projects.
The Embedded Systems Track is intended specifically for practitioners. Whether you are an EDA tool user, hardware or software designer, application engineer, engineering manager, or a consultant, the Embedded Systems Track is an ideal place to meet and share your experiences.
The Embedded Systems Track provides an EDA vendor-agnostic and objective forum for designers, IP developers and EDA tool users. To this end, Embedded Systems Track submissions that are essentially marketing material from any company will be rejected. On the other hand, joint customer/vendor submissions written from the perspective of the designer/developer are encouraged and are a valuable part of the Embedded Systems Track.
Sure! Links to example slide presentations from previous years can be found in the DAC Archive.
No. But you are required to follow the submission and formatting guidelines provided on the IP Track webpage at the DAC website.
No. All authors should be included at submission.
No. While we sympathize with your situation (many of us have been there), we have a tight schedule and are unable to accommodate late submissions. If your company permits, you may submit your work for review by DAC technical program committee without such approval. However, you must obtain appropriate legal, copyright, and any other needed permission well ahead of the deadline for submission of final presentation and/or poster, if your submission is accepted for presentation in either format. You’ll not be able to present any work at the Embedded Systems Track of DAC without suitable permission from your company.
