Dear Colleague,

The 12th VLSI Design and Test Symposium will be held in Bangalore
during July 23-26, 2008. The Call for Papers is now available from
the website http://vlsi-india.org. The CFP is also published in the
Jan 2008 version of VSI VISION. Copies of VSI VISION are being
mailed to all the members - you should receive these soon. If you
need a copy of the VDAT 2008 CFP, please write to vsisecy@vlsi-
india.org. Please submit your papers/proposals online at the VDAT
website - kindly follow the instructions provided. I would like to
emphasize the following:

1) To enable blind reviews, do not identify the names of authors if
you are submitting a regular paper. (Paper submissions which violate
this norm will be rejected without reviews.)

2) If you are submitting a tutorial proposal, you must identify
yourself and provide your biographical details.

3) Please note that the CMT online submission system works best with
Microsoft IE.

4) Please identify all coauthors at the time of submission. You will
not be permitted to add/delete names of authors later.

5) Please do not submit papers which have been presented elsewhere
or submitted elsewhere.

6) Please do not make multiple submissions.

Tutorial submissions must also be made online.

Submissions to Research Scholar forum must be sent to ravikumar@vlsi-
india.org. The forum is meant for Ph.D. scholars to discuss their
ideas in an open forum to seek suggestions.

Fellowship program is available and online submission of fellowship
requests will be available from the VDAT 2008 website after Feb 1.

Organizations that wish to sponsor VDAT 2008 or wish to hold
exhibits may please contact the Sponsorship/Exhibits chair, Dr. N.S.
Murty of NXP.

Your suggestions to improve VDAT are welcome. Please send them to
ravikumar@...

Regards,

C.P. Ravikumar
