Message from the General Chair
Dear IWLS contributors, attendees and enthusiasts,
Due to the current situation, IWLS is also going to embark into the virtual experience. It is the main focus of the organizing committee to provide a way to exchange new ideas and promote logic synthesis in the most engaging way, while accounting for the challenges of having colleagues all over the world. The modalities of the virtual transition will be communicated in due time.IWLS has always been an exemplary workshop for early scientific dissemination and exchange. As such, we would welcome any advices and recommendations that our community might have to make the first virtual IWLS a successful event.
Please feel free to reach out directly to the general chair, Pierre-Emmanuel Gaillardon (pierre-emmanuel.gaillardon@utah.edu) for any ideas.
Best wishes,
Pierre-Emmanuel Gaillardon, on behalf of the IWLS 2020 organizing committee
