1. Title of Talk: LSI Testing: A Core Technology to a Successful Semiconductor Industry
Xiaoqing WEN, Professor, Department of Computer Science and Networks, Kyushu Institute of Technology, Japan.
Abstract: The semiconductor industry is exposed to shrinking feature sizes, growing circuit complexity, increasing clock speeds, and decreasing power supply voltages. In addition to significant impact on LSI design and manufacturing, these factors also have a profound impact on LSI testing, a complex process for separating defective chips from defect-free ones. The major challenges to LSI testing are low test quality, high test cost, and excessive test power. These challenges have led to new chances of innovations in LSI testing, characterized by cell-aware test generation, test compression, and power-aware testing. This talk will review these challenges and chances. Furthermore, this talk will reveal the role of LSI testing in the semiconductor business chain, so as to explain why LSI testing is a core technology to a successful semiconductor industry.

2. Title of Talk: Optimization-based Formal Synthesis of Control Strategies for Dynamical Systems
Calin Belta, Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Boston University, USA.
Abstract: In control theory, complicated dynamics such as systems of (nonlinear)differential equations are mostly controlled to achieve stability. This fundamental property is often linked with optimality,which requires minimization of a certain cost along the trajectories of astable system. In formal synthesis, simple systemssuch as finite state transition graphs modeling computer programs ordigital circuits are controlled from specifications such as safety, liveness, or richer requirements expressed as formulas of temporal logics. With the development and integration of cyber physical and safety critical systems, there is an increasing need for computational tools for controlling complex systems from rich, temporal logic specifications. In this talk, I will introduce some recent results on the connection between optimal control and formalsynthesis. Specifically, I will focus on the following problem: given a costand a correctness temporal logic specification for a dynamical system,generate an optimal control strategy that satisfies the specification. I will first briefly review automata-based methods, in which thedynamics of the system are mapped to a finite abstraction that is then controlled using an automaton corresponding to the specification. I will then focus on optimization-based methods, which rely onmapping the specification and the dynamics to constraints of an optimizationproblem. I will illustrate the usefulness of these approaches with examples from robotics and traffic control.

3. Title of Talk: Recent advances in non-intrusive sensing based on magnetically or capacitively coupled schemes and related applications
Boby George, Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Madras.
Abstract: With the recent advancements in sensor signal processing, material science, technology, and manufacturing, we are in a position to extend and utilize some of the well-known concepts such as magnetic and capacitive coupling, in an efficient way, to design novel non-intrusive measurement systems. Such systems can offer non-intrusive solutions for measurement problems by reliably accessing the sensing point through the coupling mechanisms, with either no changes or minimal ones to the existing infrastructure. As these are contactless measurement systems, the reliability is very high, by design, and there are fewer maintenance problems, leading to the development of lost cost sensors with a long life-span. Some of the simple, but interesting designs, reported recently along these lines, will be discussed keeping the desired application in focus. The applications of non-intrusive sensors, that will be briefly discussed, include sensors for intelligent transportation, sensors to improve the efficiency of wireless charging, health-monitoring sensors for hydraulic systems, and sensors to monitor water quality and quantity.

Kolkata also known as Calcutta (the official name until 2001) is the "cultural capital" of India and the capital of India until 1911 and now the capital of the Indian state of West Bengal. It is the third-most populous metropolitan area in India. The Port of Kolkata is India's oldest operating port and its sole major riverine port. The city, nicknamed the "City of Joy" is widely regarded for its educational and cultural heritage and six Nobel Laureates have been associated with the city.
Kolkata Airport, named as Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport, is located some 16 km (9.9 mi) north-east of the city center, operates domestic and international flights. The airport is a major center for flights to Northeast India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, China and Southeast Asia.
