International Conference on Computer-Aided Design

The International Conference on Computer-Aided Design (ICCAD) is a yearly conference about electronic design automation. From the start in 1982^[1] until 2014 the conference was held in San Jose, California. It is sponsored by the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society, Computer-Aided Design Technical Committee (CANDE), the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA), and SIGDA, and in cooperation with the IEEE Electron Devices Society and the IEEE Solid State Circuits Society.

ICCAD Student Scholar Program

The ICCAD Scholar Program assists students who lack other support opportunities to attend ICCAD conferences to participate in activities such as:^[2]

• Presenting a paper
• CADathlon
• IC/CAD contest
• SRC
• Joining the job fair

ICCAD's CAD Contest

Since 2012, the CAD Contest at ICCAD has been research and development competition, focusing on advanced, real-world problems in the field of Electronic Design Automation (EDA).^[3]
