Words from symposium chair and co-chair

The International Symposium on VLSI Design, Automation and Test (VLSI-DAT), spun-off from the influential International Symposium on VLSI Technology, Systems, and Applications (VLSI-TSA) in 2006, has stepped into the 4 year. Every year, scientists and engineers discuss and present the state-of-the-art technology and macro development of the industry's future. The VLSI-DAT symposium is becoming more significant, since Taiwan not only occupies a prominent position in the global semiconductor industry, but also is increasingly competitive globally in IC design technology for communication and information products.
