ACM International Symposium on Physical Design with a tribute to Professor Malgorzata Marek-Sadowska
March 26-29, 2023, Virtual https://www.ispd.cc/
Sponsored by ACM SIGDA with technical co-sponsorship from IEEE CEDA
The International Symposium on Physical Design (ISPD) provides a premier forum to exchange ideas and promote innovative research in all aspects of physical design ranging from traditional topics for ASIC and FPGA designs to emerging technologies that impact physical design of integrated circuits (ICs). In 2023, ISPD will be online with virtual participation, with both live video and recorded sessions. The 32nd symposium will highlight key new directions and leading-edge theoretical and experimental contributions to the field.

All papers must be submitted electronically via https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ispd2023. Details will be posted on the ISPD website, https://www.ispd.cc. Authors must submit full-length, original papers, with a maximum of 8 pages using the ACM template, https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template, in PDF format. Failure to comply with the page length limit, format, or the requirements below will result in the paper being rejected. Previously published papers or papers currently submitted for publication elsewhere will not be considered. If related papers have been published or submitted elsewhere, clearly state the differences in the current submission. All submitted papers will be under blind review. They must not include the names or affiliations of the authors in the paper, abstract, or in the embedded PDF data. References to the authors’ works must be in the third person. Papers with open-source software (e.g., on GitHub) are highly encouraged, but please do not include a direct link to the non-anonymized software in your submission, instead indicate the open-source contribution in the text.
The symposium proceedings will be published in the ACM Digital Library. ISPD recognizes excellent contributions with a Best Paper Award, selected from among the submitted papers. There is a US $1,000 award for the best paper and a US $500 award for best paper nominees. One speaker per accepted paper must register for ISPD 2023, provide slides and videos of their presentation, and attend live discussions in the online session. The slides will be published on the ISPD website. The authors will retain the copyright for the slides and videos, which will be posted on a private YouTube channel for ISPD 2023.

By submitting your article to an ACM Publication, you acknowledge that you and your co-authors are subject to all ACM Publications Policies, including Research Involving Human Participants and Subjects. Violations will be investigated by ACM and may result in a full retraction of a paper, in addition to other potential penalties.
For an accepted paper, authors must obtain an ORCID ID to publish it. ACM is rolling this out as a requirement in 2022 – please see the frequently asked questions for more details. This is to improve author discoverability, ensure proper attribution and help community efforts around name normalization.
