		Preliminary Call-for-Papers

	2nd Working Conference on Asynchronous Design Methodologies

	Sponsored by ESPRIT Basic Research Working Group 7225 (ACiD-WG)
		(co-sponsorship by IFIP and IEEE is being sought)

			30 - 31 May 1995

	Abbey Conference Centre, South Bank University, London

	
	This event is the successor of the Working Conference on
	Asynchronous Design Methodologies held in Manchester, 
	April 1993. It is also the final event being organized by
	ACiD-WG, a working group on asynchronous circuit design
	that has been funded by the Commission of the European
	Communities as part of the ESPRIT Third Framework.

	The Working Conference is open to all researchers active
	in the area of asynchronous circuits and systems. Other
	researchers and practitioners in the VLSI community, who
	wish to find out more about recent developments in this
	area (such as the use of asynchronous circuits to reduce
	power consumption), are also welcome to attend --- the
	event will begin with a tutorial session to set the scene.

	The Working Conference  will focus on

		1. current development of, and
		2. experience with,

	methods, techniques and tools for the design of asynchronous
	VLSI circuits. The main topics of interest are

		- cost/performance prediction, measurement and comparison
		- processor architectures 
		- control, data-path and interface circuitry
		- automatic synthesis and verification
		- robustness and testing for fabrication faults
		- theory and formal methods 


	Authors of papers for presentation should submit six copies to

		Dr. M.B. Josephs 
		Centre for Concurrent Systems and VLSI
		South Bank University, School of CISM
		103 Borough Road, London SE1 0AA, UK

	Papers should not exceed 15 pages in 11-point font and must include
	the author's address, phone, FAX and e-mail, and a 60-word abstract.

	Deadline for submission of paper: 1 February 1995
	Completion of the review process: 15 March 1995
	Deadline for final version of accepted paper: 1 May 1995

	Papers should not be submitted concurrently to other conferences
	or journals. The proceedings of this conference will be published.
