WOSET 2020
Third Workshop on Open-Source EDA Technology
Co-located with ICCAD 2020, November 5. WOSET will now be a virtual workshop and may expand to more than a single day to accommodate time zones. There will be no registration cost to attend!
The WOSET workshop aims to galvanize the open-source EDA movement. The workshop will bring together EDA researchers who are committed to open-source principles to share their experiences and coordinate efforts towards developing a reliable, fully open-source EDA flow. The workshop will feature presentations and posters that overview existing or under-development open-source tools, designs and technology libraries. A live demo session for tools in advanced state will be planned. The workshop will feature a panel on the present status and future challenges in open-source EDA, and how to coordinate efforts and ensure quality and interoperability across open-source tools. A cash award will be given for a Best Tool Award.
Regular Paper Submissions (2-4 pages):
- Overview of an existing or under-development open-source EDA tool.
- Overview of support infrastructure (e.g. EDA databases and design benchmarks).
- Open-source cloud-based EDA tools
- Position statements (e.g. critical gaps, blockers/obstacles)
- Please reference your open-source repository! (because of this, review is NOT blind)
Work in Progress Submissions (<5 min video):
- Work in progress video in lieu of a traditional poster session
- No paper submission required, video only!
- Video will be put on WOSET site if accepted.
- Please reference your open-source repository! (because of this, review is NOT blind)
Prizes:
- WOSET will award $850 in prizes to the top open-source contributions.
