Technical Committees


To assure grounding in the major technology activities of the electronic design automation field, the Council has Member Technology Organizations from specific conferences, publications, and organizations. The Organizations bring information on the activities and directions of the EDA/CAD field.

Design Automation Technical Committee

The Design Automation Technical Committee (DATC) mission is to provide a forum for discussion of strategic and topical issues in design automation, including coordinating efforts to produce publicly available design flows and test cases and to arrange workshops, meetings, activities, and publications on related topics.

Technical Committee on Cyber-Physical Systems

The IEEE Technical Committee (TC) on Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) is an IEEE constituency overseeing all technical activities related to designs, implementations, and operations of CPSs. CPS addresses the close interactions and feedback loop between the cyber sensing components and the dynamic physical components, using big data analytics.
