To present their work at the workshop, authors are invited to submit a full paper limited to six (6) pages in the standard IEEE conference double-column format, including figures and references. Each submission should include: title, full name and affiliation of all authors, an abstract of 150 words, and keywords. It should also identify a contact author and include a complete correspondence address, phone number, fax number, and E-mail address. All submissions must be made electronically in PDF format through the IDT website. Proposals for panels, hot topic sessions and embedded tutorials are also invited.

Please ensure that your PDF file is readable by Acrobat Reader. The submission of a paper, a hot topic session or a panel proposal will be considered evidence that upon acceptance, the author(s) will register and attend in person and present the paper or organize the panel at the workshop.

Extended versions of a selection of best papers will be invited for subsequent publication in IEEE Design & Test of Computer.
