	https://date24.date-conference.com/programme#ADC\n\n\nOrganizers:\n	John 
	Darlington, University of Southampton, UK\n	Richard Buttrey, Arm, 
	UK\n	Becky Ellis, Arm, UK\n	Peter Groos, Cadence, DE\n	\n	Arm and the 
	University of Southampton have launched SoC Labs, a global meeting place 
	for academics to learn from one another and identify and collaborate on 
	SoC Design projects based on Arm. In order to foster great SoC design work 
	and research collaboration, SoC labs began a series of design contests. 
	Following their successful 2023 design contest at IEEE SOCC, SoC Labs 
	supported by Arm are here at DATE to present their ‘Understanding Our 
	World SoC Design Contest’ - which will be back at DATE ‘25 to present 
	its project outcomes.\n	SoC Labs, is pleased announce a ‘Understanding 
	Our World’ research and teaching design contest at DATE. There are 
	opportunities for the best entries to be sponsored to attend a special 
	session at DATE 2025. Research groups interested in taping-out their 
	designs have an opportunity to join a shuttle, where there will be a 
	contribution towards the cost.\n	\n	Come and join us to hear more about 
	participating in the design contest, SoC Labs and how to gain access to a 
	wide suite of Arm IP to empower your SoC designs and accelerate your 
	research.\n	\n	There are many challenges to address in the world, not 
	least those encapsulated in the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). 
	Many real-world problems need improved real time understanding of 
	environments of different kinds and our impact upon them. Sustainable 
	monitoring and management of the external environment demands efficient 
	gathering of data for compute to act on as the first stage of unlocking 
	solutions - from climate change, deforestation, pollution to water use and 
	beyond. Gathering various kinds of real-world data has its own challenges 
	in terms of analogue to digital signal conversion and the related design 
	of an efficient SoC.\n	\n	The design contest has two tracks: (1) one based 
	around collaboration/ education where we focus on skills development and 
	working with others, including re-use and repurposing designs. For this 
	track we are more interested to hear about the journey itself rather than 
	unique hardware designs (2) a second based on hardware implementation 
	which includes FPGA and ASIC, looking for mixed signal SoC designs. 
	Analogue/ digital mixed signal designs are important in understanding our 
	world in areas such as energy efficiency, calibration, noise and generally 
	bringing data into the SoC. We are looking for contest submissions from 
	both early career and experienced researchers.
