CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
2nd IEEE Computer Society
INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON
SIGNAL PROPAGATION ON INTERCONNECTS
May 13-15, 1998
Kurhaus-Hotel, Travemuende, Germany
As a result ot the success of the 1st Workshop on Signal Propagation on Interconnects we will continue this meeting with the "2nd IEEE Computer Society International Workshop on Signal Propagation on Interconnects" to be held in Travemuende, Baltic Sea Side, which will be sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society. The aim and therefore the topics of the Workshop are in the main the same as in 1997 as seen below. It is the intent of this workshop to report on recent developments and approaches in the field of interconnect simulation and measurement on chips as well as on boards and
packages. We look forward to another workshop where leading edge results will be shared and discussed by world class developers and researchers in this field.
Main topics of the workshop will include, but are not limited to:
* Delta-I-Noise * Broadband Measurement
* Non-Linear Modeling and Analysis Techniques and Theory * Propagation Characteristics on Interconncects
* Coupling Effects on Signal and Ground lines
* Determination of Characteristic Parameters
* Radiation and Interference
* Simulation Techniques for 2- and 3-dimensional Interconnect Structures
* Field Theory * Ground Bounce
* Guided Waves on Interconnects
* Substrate Influence on Signal Propagation
* Measurement, Modeling, and Simulation of Interconnects inside of Packages * Interconnects and Testing
* Delay Testing with Coupling
Submission of abstracts:
A copy of an one or two page extended summary, including figures, should be sent by February 1, 1998 to the Program Chair or to the Co-Chair. Notification about acceptance will be given by March 1, 1998. The current and up-to-date information about the workshop can be found on the website
http://www.tet.uni-hannover.de/SPI/spi.htm.

The workshop will be held in English. The title of the contribution and the names and affiliations of all authors must appear on the first page of the summary. If the paper is accepted, the summary will be reproduced, as is, in the workshop’s digest. The committee looks forward to your
participation.
