IMPORTANT DATES
---------------
Paper Submission Deadline: December  4, 2015
Author Notification:       December 14, 2015
Camera-Ready Material:     February 22, 2016


SCOPE
-----
Memory manufacturing, architectures, design and test were deeply investigated
to face issues linked to technology scaling such as increasing static power,
maximum operating frequency and the gap between logic and memory minimum
voltages. Various emerging memories solutions have appeared in recent years to
replace either partially or totally already existing memories with an aim to
overcome both technology and design related limitations in order to answer the
requirements of many different applications. The goal of this Workshop is to
bring together researchers, practitioners, and others interested in this
exciting and rapidly evolving field, in order to update each other on the
latest state-of-the-art, exchange ideas, and discuss future challenges.


TOPICS OF INTEREST
------------------
You are invited to participate and submit your contributions to DATE 
2016 Friday Workshop on Emerging Memory Solutions. The areas of interest
include (but are not limited to) the following topics:

* Volatile memory design (SRAM, DRAM, CAM or TCAM, etc.)
* Non-Volatile memory design (ReRAM, Flash, PCM, STT-RAM, etc.)
* Applications of emerging devices in memories (TFETs, nanowires, etc.)
* 3D memories (volatile and non-volatile)
* Processing in Memory
* Application specific memory solutions for emerging markets
* Test, design-for-test, and debug techniques
* Application, product, or test chip case studies

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
-----------------------
Submissions are invited in the form of (extended) abstracts not exceeding two
pages and must be sent as PDF file to <bastien.giraud at cea.fr> with
“DATE16-EMS-WS” as subject. All submissions will be evaluated for selection
with respect to their suitability for the workshop, originality, and technical
quality. Selected submissions will be accepted for oral or poster presentation.
At the workshop, an Electronic Workshop Digest will be made available to all
workshop participants, which will include all material that authors are willing
to provide: abstract, paper, slides, poster, etc.
