TAU 2015 - 2015 ACM International Workshop on Timing Issues in the Specification and Synthesis of Digital Systems

The ACM sponsored TAU series of workshops provide an informal forum for practitioners and researchers working on temporal aspects of digital systems to disseminate early work and engage in a free discussion of ideas. The twenty-second in the TAU series, the TAU 2015 workshop emphasizes the sub 22nm timing challenges with special invited talks. TAU encourages novel topics related to timing properties of digital electronic systems.
* TAU 2015 will be held at Hilton Garden Inn, Monterey, California, USA between March 12-13, 2015.
Similar to prior years, TAU will organize a timing contest. The topic for the TAU 2015 contest is Incremental timing and CPPR (common path pessimism reduction). Winners of the contest will be awarded plaques as well as cash prizes!

Copies of papers will be provided to the attendees, but the proceedings will not be published by the ACM or the IEEE.
