IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems, often abbreviated IEEE TCAD or IEEE Transactions on CAD, is a technical journal devoted to the design, analysis, and use of computer programs that aid in the design of integrated circuits and systems. It is published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), in particular the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (IEEE-CAS, web page here) and the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation(IEEE CEDA, web page here).
The IEEE web site lists the scope of the journal as:
- Methods, algorithms, and human-machine interfaces for physical and logical design, including: planning, synthesis, partitioning, modeling, simulation, layout, verification, testing, and documentation of integrated-circuit and systems designs of all complexities. Practical applications of aids resulting in producible analog, digital, optical, or microwave integrated circuits are emphasized.
Famous quotes containing the words design, integrated, circuits and/or systems:
“If I commit suicide, it will not be to destroy myself but to put myself back together again. Suicide will be for me only one means of violently reconquering myself, of brutally invading my being, of anticipating the unpredictable approaches of God. By suicide, I reintroduce my design in nature, I shall for the first time give things the shape of my will.”
—Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)
“Science is intimately integrated with the whole social structure and cultural tradition. They mutually support one other—only in certain types of society can science flourish, and conversely without a continuous and healthy development and application of science such a society cannot function properly.”
—Talcott Parsons (1902–1979)
“The Buddha, the Godhead, resides quite as comfortably in the circuits of a digital computer or the gears of a cycle transmission as he does at the top of a mountain or in the petals of a flower.”
—Robert M. Pirsig (b. 1928)
“The geometry of landscape and situation seems to create its own systems of time, the sense of a dynamic element which is cinematising the events of the canvas, translating a posture or ceremony into dynamic terms. The greatest movie of the 20th century is the Mona Lisa, just as the greatest novel is Gray’s Anatomy.”
—J.G. (James Graham)
