DOHA HILTON HOTEL, QATAR
WWW.IDTSYMPOSIUM.ORG
The International Design and Test Symposium explores emerging challenges and novel concepts in design, automation and test of electronic products ranging from integrated circuits through multi-chip modules and printed circuit boards to full systems and microsystems, as well as examining the methodologies and tools used in the design, verification and silicon debug of such products. IDT provides unique forum to discuss best practices and novel approaches in design, automation and test in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region. IDT’12 will take place in Doha, Qatar. The Symposium is initiated and sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society Test Technology Technical Council and the 2012 edition is organized by Texas A&M University at Qatar.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
DESIGN METHODS AND TOOLS
• SOC, SIP, NOC design
• Multiprocessor systems
• Embedded systems
