Ü GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
   • Prospective authors must electronically submit the self-contained paper with figures
     and tables via the conference submission page before December 2, 2024 (23:59 GMT+8).
   • The submitted manuscript must be 2 or 4 pages including reference, double-columned,
     IEEE-style compatible, in PDF format only. Any submissions not adhering to the rules will
     be rejected immediately without review.
   • Before submitting your abstract/paper, please review the information on IEEE Intellectual Property
   • The review process will be double-blind.
      - Please do NOT reveal any authors' information (names, affiliations, email,
         grant information, personal acknowledgment, etc.) anywhere in the initial manuscript.
         You must also ensure that the metadata in the PDF does not include such information.
      - All references, including authors' previous work, should be referred as 3rd-persons'
        works. E.g., you should use "This paper presents a new method to improve
        XXX's approach [1]." instead of "This paper presents a new method to improve our
        previous approach [1]." Do NOT omit or anonymize references for blind review.
      - The initial manuscript violating the double-blind review policy will be rejected.
   • Accepted papers MUST be presented in person by one of the authors at the symposium,
     and the presentation must be conducted in English. All accepted manuscripts in the
     proceeding will be published in IEEE Xplore.
   • Any changes on the title and author list or withdrawal after acceptance must be approved by DAT
       Program Chairs.
   • All paper presenters are required to register for the symposium.
   • No-show papers will not be included in the symposium proceedings and will not be submitted to the
       IEEE Xplore database.
   • Please refer to the detailed information on the conference website for authors:
 
Ü STUDENT SUBSIDY
   • Student Travel Financial support for attending 2025 VLSI TSA is available for full-time
     student presenters living outside of Taiwan.
 
Ü BEST PAPER AWARD
   • Three best papers will be selected this year through a rigorous evaluation process
      conducted by the program committee and session chairs.
