“DVCon 2011 was quite a success, continuing on our tradition of bringing a rich technical program to attendees,” said Karen Bartleson, DVCon General Chair. “Attendance and exhibitors increased again this year, and Accellera (who sponsors DVCon) is pleased. New to DVCon this year were poster sessions, online voting for best paper, Birds-of-a-Feather session, a sponsored networking event, fourteen first-time exhibitors, and a preview of DVCon on the online radio show, Conversation Central. As in the past, we’ve asked attendees to provide feedback on how we can make DVCon 2012 even better.”
Accellera, the sponsor of DVCon, celebrates its 11 years of Electronic Design Automation (EDA) and Intellectual Property (IP) standards development at DVCon.
