IEEE Design and Test of Computers seeks original manuscripts for a
theme issue on Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) scheduled to
appear in the first issue of 1998. Articles concerning applied
research and practical experience reports are solicited. The topics
of interest include, but are not limited to:
FPGA Fabrication and Technology. Manufacturing, process control,
yield enhancement, and novel architectures for and device
technology to support field programmable chips.
Exploitation of Field Programmability. Configurable computer
architectures, rapid prototyping, programmable interconnect
architectures, field configurable memories, programmable I/O
systems, and novel implementations.
Reliable Online Implementations. Online testing, built-in
self-test, concurrent testing, design for rapid testability,
latency reduction, fault containment, verification of
reprogramming, online reconfiguration approaches, and design for
reconfigurability.
Synthesis Approaches and Tools. Partitioning, logic minimization
and technology mapping, placement and routing, test generation,
verification of synthesis, and design for synthesizability.
Submitted articles must not have been previously published or
currently submitted for publication elsewhere. Authors should submit
their original work to the guest editor by May 1, 1997, formatted
