Starting 2009, an Award Committee is formed for the selection of the Best Paper Award each year. The selection criteria of the award include the technical contents and writing quality of the paper as well as the quality of the presentation at the symposium. The award will be presented to the selected paper in the following year's symposium.
2022 VLSI-DAT Best Paper Award Committee
Led by the Technical Program Committee co-chairs, Dr. Shigeki Tomishima, Dr. Racy Cheng and Prof. Chih-Tsun Huang, the award committee members consist of subcommittee co-chairs. The Award Committee will select the 2022 Best Paper Award based on the criteria including the technical contents and depth, quality of the paper as well as the quality of the presentation. The award will be announced after the conference and granted in the VLSI-TSA and VLSI-DAT Opening ceremony in 2023. The winner will be rewarded by a certificate and US$500 . Besides, it will also offer the registration fee waived of 2023 VLSI-DAT.
