Welcome to the DATE 2021 Website

ALPEXPO is the place where DATE 2021 will take place. It is easy accessible by car and public transportation from two airports nearby (Lyon and Geneva).

The PhD forum is hosted by the European Design Automation Association (EDAA), the ACM Special Interest Group on Design Automation (SIGDA), and the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA). The forum is a great opportunity for PhD students who have completed their PhD thesis within the last 12 months or who are close to complete their thesis to present their work to a broad audience in the system design and design automation community from both industry and academia. The forum may also help students to establish contacts for entering the job market. In addition, representatives from industry and academia get a glance of state-of-the-art in system design and design automation.

Venue

The Alpexpo Congress Centre will host the five day event DATE 2021. It is located in close proximity to central Grenoble and provides a modern, well equipped location for DATE. It is easily accessible and well-connected by public transport.

The city of Grenoble, which is surrounded by outstanding natural beauty of the Alps, is one of Europe’s major scientific centres. It states the key European semiconductor site with more than 38,000 people in micro and nano technologies (24,000) and embedded software (14,000). It is home to both the Joseph Fourier University, which is one of France’s leading scientific Universities and the Grenoble Institute of Technology which trains in excess of 5,000 engineers per annum in key technology disciplines. Minatec is a centre for innovation for micro and nano technology and has a locally based campus in combination with a network of companies, researchers and engineering schools. Grenoble provides the second largest research centre in France. There are 15 research centres and universities (CEA-Leti – 1,500 researchers, TIMA, Verimag) as well as some 100 startup companies located in the area in addition to 117 companies – 81% of which are SME’s.
