Welcome to CICC 2002!
Welcome to the 24th annual Custom Integrated Circuits Conference, CICC 2002. The CICC is the leading international conference for integrated circuit development where first time advancements are published and presented. CICC provides a unique forum for all individuals involved with IC development to meet and share information about the most recent advances in system architectures, circuit and computer-aided design and process technology. CICC's goal is to offer attendees a total educational experience balanced between paper presentations, exhibits, panels, tutorials and interesting networking events. You are cordially invited to participate in CICC 2002, as we convene this year in Orlando, Florida at the Caribe Royale Resort Suites.
The conference starts with three educational sessions on Sunday, May 12th, 2002. These sessions are taught by practicing experts working at the leading edge of their field. The topics for these sessions are: Advanced RF, Advanced Data Converter Design and Test Techniques, High-Performance and Low-voltage Design Challenges and Techniques.
On Monday morning, the technical program begins with the keynote speaker, Christine King, CEO of AMI Semiconductor. Christine will discuss the challenge facing the semiconductor industry to balance cost, performance, power, productivity and time to market in "Smart Management of ASIC Requirements and Technology (SMART)".
The technical program offers exceptional technical papers that provide the latest and most significant developments in the IC industry. This year, more than 250 technical papers were submitted, of which 108 were selected and organized into 21 sessions. Topics for these sessions include: Analog, Wireless & Wired Communications, Custom & Low Power Circuits, System-on-a-Chip/IP, Embedded Memories, Simulation & Modeling, Fabrication, Programmable Devices, DSPs and Test & Reliability. As always, the technical sessions are highlighted by invited and tutorial papers presented by leading experts from industry and academia. This year we have had the good fortune of many excellent publications.
Monday afternoon the Exhibitor Preview Sessions kick off the opening of the Exhibits Hall. Here many of our Exhibitors will present overviews of new products and services. During the Monday evening Exhibitors' Reception you will find refreshments and professional networking at its very best! As always, our exhibits area will include booths and software demonstrations from prominent corporations in the industry.
You will not want to miss this year's conference luncheon. Our honored guest speaker is Dr. Eugene Trinh, Director of the Physical Sciences Research Division in the Biological and Physical Research Enterprise at NASA. Dr. Trinh was a member of the Space Shuttle Columbia's crew in 1992. The title of his talk will be "Accomplishments and Promises of Research in Low-gravity." This promises to be a fascinating and educational experience.
On Tuesday afternoon and evening, three spirited panel discussions are scheduled featuring experts who are sure to offer strong opinion on the following three panels: "Design Challenges in Wireless LANs", "Will the Next Great Killer Technology Application Please Stand Up!!", and "Can Scaling Continue at the same rate below 0.10um? What is the end of CMOS... and What is Next?" These panel discussions are always entertaining and enlightening, and you are sure to come away with information and insights of the not-too-distant future. There will also be a special in-session educational tutorial presented during Session 10 entitled "Delta-Sigma Converters for Wireless Transceivers" taught by Dr. Ian Galton of the University of California, San Diego.
We extend our thanks to all the authors who spent many hours on the preparation of their submitted papers. We also wish to thank the CICC Technical Program Committee and our dedicated conference staff for all of their hard work and support. It is their diligent efforts that keep CICC as the best place to discover the latest in integrated circuit innovations, newest product announcements, and to debate the most effective business strategies. See you in Orlando!
