FOREWORD

Welcome to the 2001 International Symposium on Low Power Electronics and Design (ISLPED)! This annual symposium provides a forum for the presentation of advances in low power systems and components. All aspects of designing low power products - from fabrication technologies and circuits to systems and software - are within the scope of ISLPED. As in the past, this year’s ISLPED contains a mix of invited talks and contributed papers. All invited talks will be in plenary sessions, and thus can be heard by all attendees. The other sessions consist of two parallel tracks - one focusing on low power architectures, circuits, and technologies and the other on low power design tools, systems design, and software design.

A total of 194 contributed papers were received. Many thanks to all of the authors who submitted their manuscripts for consideration. Even with parallel sessions, we were able to accept only 25 regular papers, 22 short paper, and 26 brief paper for poster presentation. Poster papers are different from regular and short papers in several ways. Poster papers are allocated fewer pages in the published proceedings and are presented during a poster session to the audience in a five minute “sales pitch.” Authors will then be available during a poster display and discussion period to discuss their poster contributions with attendees on an individual basis. The intention is that the author(s) can use the five minute presentation time to encourage attendees to come by and discuss the poster material with the author during the display period.

One keynote speech and two invited talks will be presented during the plenary sessions. The winners of the Design Contest will be recognized during the Monday night banquet. The goal of the Design Contest is to encourage innovation in low power design and to showcase original power-aware designs from both universities and research organizations. An industry-sponsored cash award will be presented to each selected design entry. This year, the symposium will also once again feature a small exhibits area.

Many thanks to the technical program committee for all the hard work in paper review, paper selection, and session organization. Additional experts have also contributed to the review process, and we acknowledge their contribution. The list of technical program committee members and of additional reviewers can be found in the following pages. Many thanks to Stanford University for hosting the technical program committee meeting in March. Thanks also to the invited speakers for graciously donating their time. The symposium has received generous support from Broadcom, BullDAST, Cadence, Compaq, Intel, NEC, and Philips. Finally, we want to thank the ACM SIGDA and the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society for their sponsorship, and the IEEE Electron Devices Society and the IEEE Solid State Circuits Society for their technical co-sponsorship.

We hope you will find the symposium both stimulating and helpful. Please give us your comments and suggestions on any aspects of the symposium and consider volunteering to become involved with the symposium organization next year.
