DVCon US is the premier conference on the application of languages, tools, and methodologies for the design and verification of electronic systems and integrated circuits. The focus of the conference is on the usage of specialized design and verification languages such as SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL, SystemC, PSL, and e, as well as general-purpose languages such as C and C++, PERL, Tcl, and Python. Tools and methodologies include the use of testbench automation, hardware-assisted verification, hardware/software co-verification, assertion-based and formal verification, transaction-level system design, high-level synthesis, low-power design and verification techniques, Functional Safety and Security, 3D chip designs, IP-based SoC design methods, reference flows, and AMS design.

Conference attendees are primarily designers of electronic systems, ASICs, and FPGAs, as well as those involved in the research, development, and application of Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools. Presentations are highly technical in nature and reflect real-life experiences in using these languages and tools.

Speaker Policy

All speakers are expected to present in person.

If the presenter can’t present in person, the speaker is responsible for finding an alternative speaker that can present in person (should be a co-author).

  • If no co-authors can present in person and thus an alternative speaker can not be found, then it is up to the committee to determine if the presentation will remain in the program.
  • Pre-recorded videos will NOT be played onsite. The pre-recorded videos are for quality assurance purposes, for the Accellera archives, and/or in the case that DVCon U.S. moves virtual.
  • Pre-recorded videos are required for all authors. 
    Pre-recorded videos are optional for tutorial, workshop, and panel speakers.
