Design, Automation & Test in Europe, or DATE is a yearly conference on the topic of electronic design automation. It is typically held in March or April of each year, alternating between France and Germany.[1][2] It is sponsored by the SIGDA of the Association for Computing Machinery, the Electronic System Design Alliance, the European Design and Automation Association (EDAA),[3] and the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA). Technical co-sponsors include ACM SIGBED, the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society (SSCS), IFIP, and the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET).

DATE is a combination of a technical conference and a small trade show. It was formed in 1998 as a merger of EDAC, ETC, Euro-ASIC, and Euro-DAC.[4]

Areas of Submission

[edit]

The DATE conference invites research papers in many areas related to electronic design automation. These topics are grouped into four main tracks: design methods, applications, testing, and embedded systems.[5]

Track D:[6] Design Methods and Tools covers research on how to build better design tools and methods. Topics include high-level synthesis, system simulation, formal verification, low-power and secure design, reconfigurable systems, and new ideas like quantum computing and approximate computing.

Track A:[7] Application Designfocuses on real-world examples. It includes designs for smart energy systems, secure and autonomous systems, artificial intelligence, and new technologies used in practical ways.

Track T:[8] Test and Dependability is about testing and reliability. It includes fault detection, circuit testing, secure system validation, and ways to make sure systems work even when there are errors.

Track E:[9] Embedded Systems Design includes software and hardware for embedded and cyber-physical systems. Topics cover real-time systems, secure systems, software tools, and using machine learning in embedded devices.

Each track has several specific topics. Authors can choose the one that fits their work. All papers are peer-reviewed and must present original and useful research.

Young People Programme

[edit]

The DATE conference hosts the Young People Programme, an initiative aimed at supporting early-career researchers and strengthening academic-industry connections. First introduced in 2019, the program offers career development resources for master’s students, PhD candidates, and postdoctoral researchers. It also provides a platform for companies and universities to engage with emerging talent. The programme includes networking events, mentorship opportunities, and recruiting activities to help participants explore career paths and build professional relationships.[10]

Late Breaking Results

[edit]

The DATE conference offers a special track for Late Breaking Results (LBR). This track allows researchers to share new ideas, early-stage findings, or innovative directions that are still in progress. LBR submissions are limited to two pages and must follow the official template. All submissions are reviewed through a blind peer-review process. Selected papers are presented in interactive sessions, where authors can receive feedback and discuss their work with the community.[5]
