ETS 2011 - 16th IEEE European Test Symposium

The IEEE European Test Symposium (ETS) is Europe's premier forum dedicated to presenting and discussing scientific results, emerging ideas, practical applications, hot topics, and new trends in the area of electronic-based circuit and system testing. A Test Spring School will be organized in conjunction with ETS'11.

In 2011 ETS will take place in Trondheim, Norway and is being organized by the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) and sponsored by the Test Technology Technical Council (TTTC) of the IEEE Computer Society. Norway is known for its white summer nights; during the week of ETS'11 the sun will rise in Trondheim well before 4am and set close to 11pm.

You are invited to participate and submit your contributions to ETS'11. The areas of interest include (but are not limited to) the following topics:

Analog Test
ATE Hardware and Software
Automatic Test Generation
Board Test and Diagnosis
Boundary Scan Test
Built-In Self Test (BIST)
Current-Based Test
Defect-Based Test

Publications - ETS'11 will produce Formal Proceedings of selected papers and an Informal Digest of Papers. The best contributions will be selected for submission to regular issues of the "Journal of Electronic Testing: Theory and Applications" (JETTA), published by Springer. A Best Paper Award of ETS'11 will be presented at ETS'12.

Submissions - ETS'11 seeks original, unpublished contributions of the following types:

Scientific papers for the Formal proceedings, presenting novel and complete research work.
Workshop-type papers for the Informal Digest, including 'emerging ideas' and 'case studies'.
Proposals for panels, embedded tutorials, and other special sessions.
Vendor presentations focusing on new features of test related products.
Student work-in-progress presenting on-going and not yet complete work.
Doctoral student contest is open for doctoral students in their final year.
Detailed submission instructions, including selection criteria and publication policies, for the various types of contributions are posted on the ETS'11 web page.

The ETS'11 organizing committee also encourages the organization of fringe meetings and workshops. Details can be found on the ETS'11 web page.
