In this paper a review of development of manpower in VLSI in India is attempted. In the last decade of the 20 Century, rapid strides have been done in Micro-Electronics in India. Both private and public institutions have accelerated the growth of VLSI, Chip design and embedded systems including DSP.

This paper provides lower bounds on the energy consumption and demonstrates an energy-time trade-oo in optical computations. All the lower bounds are shown to have the matching upper bounds for a transitive function { shifting. Since the energy consumption in an optical transmission is a non-linear function of the distance, a new set of techniques was required to derive these lower bounds. We a...

A low-complexity VLSI array of versatile multiplier in normal basis over GF(2n) is presented. The finite field parameters can be changed according to the user’s requirement andmake themultiplier reusable in different applications. It increases the flexibility to use the same multiplier for different applications and reduces the user’s cost. The proposed multiplier has a regular structure and is...

Design validation is essential to ensuring low cost design of reliable systems, and solutions for validation problems are coming from the manufacturing test community. The purpose of this panel is to summarize the current state of design validation research, and to outline important directions for future research in the area. The panel will include people from both industry and academia to give...

Despite the potential of new technologies and the improvements of early-warning systems since the 2004 Tsunami, damage and harm caused by disasters do not stop to increase. There is a clear need for better integrating the fragmented landscape of researchers and practitioners working on different aspects of decision support for disaster risk reduction and response. To demonstrate and discuss the...
