System, Software, SoC and Silicon Debug Conference
October 5-6, 2011
Munich, Germany
Call for Contributions
Extended deadline: May 30, 2011!
Chair: Pat Brouillette, Intel Corporation

Description
Embedded systems and software complexity is rapidly increasing; from one
processor to ten or more, from thousands of lines of code to millions.
Modern system-on-chips integrate dozens of hardware accelerators and I/O
devices. Modern products integrate hard IP and software from many more
sources than in the recent past. Embedded systems debug capabilities must
scale with this exponential growth in system complexity.
This third edition of S4D Conference has evolved from several industry
workshops organized by ECSI into the areas of debug and provides a forum for
work and standardization efforts related to debug of electronic systems,
with a focus on multi-core and multi-accelerator SoCs. The conference
addresses a vast set of requirements from system and SoC companies with
regard to debug methods and tools. It includes efforts from IEEE and other
standards working groups, including the Nexus 5001 Forum, IJTAG (IEEE
P1687), IEEE 1149.7, MIPI, industry working groups including OCP-IP, the
Multicore Association (MCA), the Accellera - SPIRIT Consortium and Eclipse
and industry R&D projects contributing to debug and related tools and
methods development. The S4D Conference event also allows presentation and
discussion of existing and new commercial debug tools and products related
to electronic (silicon and software) methods, devices, and systems. In
summary, the S4D conference provides a forum for discussing research,
scientific and commercial development in the areas of system, software, SoC
and silicon debug.
Come present research, tools, or methodologies that help eliminate bugs
embedded in hardware and/or software at any stage of product development.
Potential topics include market/human research on trends in debug
requirements for developers of embedded systems and standardization
activities for debug and debug automation.

Topics of Interest
·         System Level Debug, improving visibility
·         Architecture, design analysis
·         Human factors; bug sources and our behaviors in preventing and
eliminating them
·         Real-time debug analysis and tracing
·         Debug tools and activities throughout the product development
life-cycle
·         System Performance Analysis and Optimization
·         Multi-core and heterogeneous core debug
·         Debug in a co-development environment
·         On-die debug capabilities
·         Software debug/analysis infrastructure DFT Reuse for Debug and
Analysis
·         Transitioning debug and test among model, simulation, FPGA, and
Post-silicon
·         Bug capture automation and reproduction
·         Debugging of IP blocks and their Integration
·         Debug Architectures and Interfaces
·         Digital/Analog Debug
·         Tools for Debug, Analysis and Optimization
·         Tools and Equipment Impact
·         Debug Case Studies

The above list is not an exhaustive list of topics addressed by S4D; related
contributions not listed here are highly welcome. Submissions may be
theoretical scientific papers, research in progress, case studies, tool use
cases and best practice, as well as industry experiences.


Submission Requirements

Paper Submission

Authors should submit their abstracts of minimum 2 pages, double-column IEEE
format, in PDF through the web-based submission system. The abstract should
describe main contributions, concepts, innovation and conclusions. The
abstract may not contain confidential information. The submitted paper must
not mention names and affiliations of the authors. Submitted papers are
required to describe original unpublished work and must not be under
consideration for publication elsewhere. Proceedings of S4D 2011 Conference
will be published in the ECSI Resource Center.at www.ecsi.org. The selected
best papers from several S4D Conference editions will be published in the
book edited by SPRINGER.

Paper submission details can be found at
www.ecsi.org/s4d<http://www.ecsi.org/s4d>.

Panels, Special Sessions, Working Groups, Project Meetings, Embedded
Tutorials

Proposals for special sessions (panels, working sessions, standardization or
user group meetings, etc.) as well as proposals for half-day (4 hours)
embedded tutorials are invited. Acceptance will be based on relevance and
potential interest. Special sessions will be embedded in regular workshops.
Accepted tutorials will receive one free registration to the S4D Conference
per tutorial. A one page description of the tutorial or special sessions
including title, presenters, contents, and the relevant track(s) should be
sent to S4D2011@ecsi.org<mailto:S4D2011@ecsi.org>.

Demonstrations

Companies, universities or other organizations providing innovative tools
and environments for the described topics will find in S4D an opportunity to
demonstrate these tools and environments to attendees. Proposals should be
sent to S4D2011@ecsi.org<mailto:S4D2011@ecsi.org> as soon as possible.
