Four parallel full-day tutorials (short courses) by world-renowned experts in their field will be offered on Monday September 18th, 2006, as part of the conference program. Conference participants are strongly advised to register for the tutorial of their choice as soon as possible since seating is limited.

Please note that it is also possible to register for the tutorials only, even if you do not register for the full conference. In this case, please contact the conference secretariat by e-mail, directly.


Tutorial registration covers admission to the selected tutorial, the coffee breaks, the sandwich lunch, and one printed version of the course notes.

Tutorial 1 :
Bridging the Gaps Between Giga-Scale Systems and Nano-Scale Technology
Hugo DeMan (IMEC), Wim Dehaene (KU Leuven), Paul Marchal (IMEC)

Tutorial 2 :
CMOS Meets Bio
Roland Thewes


Tutorial 3 :
Advanced Circuit Modeling Techniques for Design of Complex Analog and Mixed-Signal Integrated Systems
Georges Gielen (KU Leuven), Jaijeet Roychowdhury (University of Minnesota)


Tutorial 4 :
RF MEMS: Micromechanical Circuits for Wireless Transceiver Front-Ends
Clark T.-C. Nguyen (University of Michigan)


Please note that each tutorial will start at 9:00 in the morning, and continue until 16:00 in the afternoon, with a lunch break at noon. Detailed course programs will be posted on this website, in a few weeks.




Six parallel full-day workshops will take place on Friday September 22nd, 2006, as part of the conference program. Conference participants are strongly advised to register for the workshop of their choice as soon as possible since seating is limited.
