Regular Sessions

The ATS ’21 Organizing Committee invites original, unpublished paper submissions on the above topics. Paper submission shall be complete manuscripts, not exceeding six pages in a standard IEEE two-column format. The submission will be considered evidence that upon acceptance the author(s) will submit a final camera-ready version of the paper for inclusion in the proceedings, and will present the paper at the symposium. Each accepted contribution must have at least one full paid registration by the time the camera ready paper is submitted for inclusion in the proceedings. ATS reserves the right to remove from IEEE Xplore papers not presented at the symposium.

Industry Session

This session will address a wide range of practical problems in LSI test, board and system test, diagnosis, failure analysis, design verification, and so on. A one-page abstract is required for submission. Each submission should also include the complete address and designate a contact person and a presenter. Abstract submissions should be emailed to Industry Chair (e-mail: ats2021ic [at] aries30.cse.kyutech.ac.jp)

Paper Submission

All submission should be made electronically in PDF format at (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ats2021). A submission should contain a complete manuscript within a limit of 6 pages in 10-point single-spaced double-column format, and an abstract of 50–200 words. The paper must be submitted for a single blind review process. Once a submission is accepted, the author(s) must prepare the final camera-ready manuscript in time for inclusion in the proceedings, and present the paper at the symposium. In case of any difficulty in submission, authors may contact
ats2021ogmember [at] aries30.cse.kyutech.ac.jp.
