THURSDAY, June 16, 2005, 4:30 PM - 6:00 PM | Room: 207ABC
TOPIC AREA:  PHYSICAL CIRCUIT DESIGN (methods)

   SESSION 51
  Special Session: Hierarchical Design and Design Space Exploration of Analog Integrated Circuits
  Chair: Erich Barke - Univ. of Hannover, Hannover, Germany
  Organizers: Helmut Graeb

  This session presents the leading work in analog design space exploration which is an important prerequisite for top-down synthesis flows. The research presented is grounded in real industrial design problems and has practical application.
