EvoHOT 2011 - EvoHOT 2011, the 6th European Workshop on Hardware Optimization Techniques

EvoHOT 2011, the 6th
European Workshop on Hardware Optimization Techniques.

EvoHOT focuses on innovative heuristics, game theory and bio-inspired
techniques (eg. EA, SA, AIS, NN, ants) applied to the Electronic
Design Automation.

The workshop goal is to show the latest developments; industrial
experiences; successful attempts to /evolve/ rather than /design/ new
solutions; hybridizations of traditional methodologies.

EvoHOT topics include, but are not limited to:

* Analog circuit design

* Automatic test pattern generation

* Built-in self test

* Evolutionary design of electronic circuits

* Evolutionary hardware design methodologies

* Evolutionary robotics

* Evolvable hardware

* Floorplanning

* Hardware/Software co-design

* Hybrid evolutionary/exact approach

* Hardware accelerated methodologies

* Logic synthesis

* Routing

* Test program generation

Submissions should be formatted according to the LNCS guidelines and
must not be longer than 10 pages.

EvoHOT is part of EvoStar (Evo*), the premier co-located conferences
in the field of Evolutionary Computing. The website
http://www.evostar.org/ offers updated information about EvoHOT and
all other Evo* events, including call for papers, organising
committees and detailed submission requirements.

Evo* 2011 will be held in Torino, Italy. In 2011, Italy will celebrate
the 150th anniversary of its unification. Torino, as the first Italian
capital, will be the center of all the celebrations. The investments
made to host the 2006 Winter Olympics made the city of Torino and the
region Piemonte very attractive and an ideal location to host
international events.

Important dates common to all Evo* events:
* Submission deadline: 22 november 2010
* Notification to authors: 7 january 2011
* Camera-ready deadline: 1 february 2011
* Conference: 27-29 April 2011
