Dear all,

I'd like to bring your attention to a full-day workshop which I am helping co-organize. The registration is FREE but mandatory (due to limited seats). See more details below or directly check http://texaswise.tamu.edu/

IEEE Texas Workshop on Integrated System Exploration (TexasWISE)
2014

Friday, March 21, 2014
JJ Pickle Research Campus, Commons Learning Center, UT Austin, Texas
(Get Directions)

There is a compelling need to search for new inter-disciplinary growth areas for the integrated circuits and systems industry. TexasWISE aims to fulfill this requirement by providing a common forum for academic and industry researchers to meet and explore avenues of research beyond IC design. The workshop will not only provide a chance for face-to-face interaction among Texas IC research and development professionals, but also attract outstanding speakers from outside of Texas. The goal is to maximize the impact of exploratory research beyond IC design and establish Texas in a leading role in this activity.

Plenary Talks:
Dr. John P. Hayes, Dept. of EECS, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor
Dr. Louis K. Scheffer, Janelia Farm Research Campus, Howard Hughes Medical Institute
Dr. Jan M. Rabaey, Dept. of EECS, University of California, Berkeley

Panel Session:
Title: "Top Industrial Problems in Integrated System Design: How can universities help?” 
Dr. Jacob Abraham, University of Texas at Austin
Dr. Charles Alpert, Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (Moderator)
Mr. Ken Hansen, Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. 
Dr. Richard Muyshondt, Intel Corporation
Dr. Kevin Nowka, IBM Research, Austin
Dr. Mahesh Sharma, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
