EPEP 2009 - 2009 IEEE 18th Conference on Electrical Performance of Electronic Packaging (EPEP)

Call for Papers

The general subject of the meeting is the electrical modeling, design, analysis, and characterization of electronic interconnections and packaging structures. The goal of the meeting is to be the leading conference dealing with advanced and emerging issues in electrical design of interconnect structures and assurance of Signal Integrity. Authors are invited to submit papers describing new technical contributions in the areas broadly covered below:

¡¤ Current and future issues related to system level and on-chip interconnections

¡¤ Electrical design, modeling and analysis techniques applicable to ensuring the Signal Integrity of interconnect structures

¡¤ Electrical design, modeling and analysis techniques applicable to ensuring the integrity of power and ground delivery at the system and chip levels

¡¤ Design of high speed links, including jitter and noise management

¡¤ New and innovative interconnect packaging structures and their electrical performance

¡¤ Measurement and data analysis techniques for system level and on-chip structures

¡¤ Signal integrity in mixed signal and RF integrated circuits and modules

¡¤ RF/microwave packaging structures and their electrical performance

¡¤ Electromagnetic modeling and simulation tools and flows

¡¤ Macromodeling and model reduction as it applies to electrical analysis

¡¤ Advances in transmission-line techniques
