The International Conference of Computer Design (ICCD) was founded along with the International Conference on Computer-Aided Design (ICCAD) in 1982 to address critical needs in the design of large-scale integrated systems. ICCAD was founded to focus on the algorithmic core of CAD, whereas ICCD was oriented to design and CAD applications.

ICCD is the premiere conference covering the research, design, and implementation of computer systems and their components.

ICCD's multidisciplinary emphasis provides an ideal environment for developers and researchers to discuss practical and theoretical work.

Papers are presented in five conference tracks which focus on design and CAD applications:

Computer Systems Design and Architecture
Processor Architecture
Logic and Circuit Design
Tools and Methodology
Verification and Test

Multidisciplinary special sessions have become the hallmark of ICCD, highlighting key research concepts or large design projects.

The International Conference on Computer Design encompasses a wide range of topics in the research, design, and implementation of computer systems and their components. ICCD's multi-disciplinary emphasis provides an ideal environment for developers and researchers to discuss practical and theoretical work covering system and computer architecture, verification and test, design and technology, and tools and methodologies.

"From Application to Architecture to Implementation"

Submitted papers consistent with this theme are encouraged. Authors are invited to submit technical papers in accordance to the author's instructions describing original work in one of the following areas:

Computer Systems Design and Applications
Advanced computer architecture for general and application-specific enhancement
Modeling and performance analysis
Support for operating systems and languages
Memory hierarchy
System design methods for uni- and parallel-processors

Processor Architecture
Micro architecture design techniques
Instruction level parallelism
Pipelining, caching, branch prediction, and multithreading, computer arithmetic
Techniques for low-power; secure, and reliable processor designs
Embedded network, system-on-chip, and application specific processor design
Real-life design challenges: case studies, tradeoffs and post-mortems

Logic and Circuit Design
Circuits and design techniques for digital, memory, and mixed-signal systems
Circuits and design techniques for high performance and low power
Circuits and design techniques for robustness under process variability and radiation
Design techniques for emerging process technologies
Asynchronous circuits
Signal processing and arithmetic circuits

Tools and Methodologies
High-level, logic and physical synthesis
Physical planning, design and early estimation for large circuits
Automatic analysis and optimization of timing, power and noise
Tools for multiple-clock domains, asynchronous and mixed-timing methodologies
CAD support for FPGAs, ASSPs, structured ASICs, platform-based design and networks-on-chip Hardware description languages
Tools, methodologies and design strategies for emerging technologies (MEMs, spintronics, nano, quantum)

Verification and Test
Simulation based and formal techniques for functional design verification
Equivalency checking, property checking, theorem proving
High-level design validation
Design error debug and diagnosis
Hardware/Software validation
Fault modeling
Fault simulation and ATPG
DFT and BIST
SoC testing

Papers describing novel methods and concepts or innovative features of new products, and focusing on the overall integration of these areas into the computer design process are of particular interest to ICCD. Papers may be accepted as either regular papers or as short papers. All papers will be presented during parallel technical sessions, and will be included in a published proceedings. At  least one author of the paper must register for and attend the conference.

Proposals for embedded tutorials and panel discussions are also solicited, and should be sent to:
