本次交易的目的是向計(jì)算機(jī)輔助設(shè)計(jì)集成電路和由模擬、數(shù)字、混合信號、光學(xué)或微波元件組成的系統(tǒng)領(lǐng)域的個人發(fā)表感興趣的論文。這些輔助工具包括系統(tǒng)級的方法、模型、算法和人機(jī)界面、物理和邏輯設(shè)計(jì)，包括：規(guī)劃、綜合、劃分、建模、仿真、布局、驗(yàn)證、測試、硬件軟件協(xié)同設(shè)計(jì)以及集成電路和各種復(fù)雜系統(tǒng)設(shè)計(jì)的文檔。設(shè)計(jì)工具和技術(shù)，以評估和設(shè)計(jì)集成電路和系統(tǒng)的指標(biāo)，如性能，功率，可靠性，可測試性和安全性是一個重點(diǎn)。

The purpose of this Transactions is to publish papers of interest to individuals in the area of computer-aided design of integrated circuits and systems composed of analog, digital, mixed-signal, optical, or microwave components. The aids include methods, models, algorithms, and man-machine interfaces for system-level, physical and logical design including: planning, synthesis, partitioning, modeling, simulation, layout, verification, testing, hardware-software co-design and documentation of integrated circuit and system designs of all complexities. Design tools and techniques for evaluating and designing integrated circuits and systems for metrics such as performance, power, reliability, testability, and security are a focus.
