== Overview of DATE 2020

The 23rd DATE conference and exhibition is the main European event
bringing together designers and design automation users, researchers
and vendors, as well as specialists in the hardware and software
design, test and manufacturing of electronic circuits and
systems. DATE puts a strong emphasis on both technology and systems,
covering ICs/ SoCs, reconfigurable hardware and embedded systems, and
embedded software.

The five-day event consists of a conference with plenary invited
papers, regular papers, panels, hot-topic sessions, tutorials and
workshops, two special focus days and a track for executives. The
scientific conference is complemented by a commercial exhibition
showing the state-of-the-art in design and test tools, methodologies,
IP and design services, reconfigurable and other hardware platforms,
embedded software, and (industrial) design experiences from different
application domains, e.g. automotive, IoT, wireless, telecom and
multimedia applications. The organisation of user group meetings,
fringe meetings, a university booth, a PhD forum, vendor presentations
and social events offers a wide variety of extra opportunities to meet
and exchange information on relevant issues for the design and test
community. Special space will also be allocated for EU-funded projects
to show their results.

== Track E: Embedded and Cyber-Physical Systems

The track is devoted to the modelling, analysis, design and deployment
of embedded software or embedded/cyber-physical systems. Areas of
interest include methods, tools, methodologies and development
environments. Emphasis will also be on model-based design and
verification, embedded software platforms, software compilation and
integration, real-time systems, cyber-physical systems, networked
systems, and dependable systems.

== Topic E3: E3 Model-Based Design, Verification and Security for
   Embedded Systems

The topic is devoted to verification techniques for embedded systems
ranging from simulation, testing, model-checking, SAT and SMT-based
reasoning, compositional analysis and analytical methods. Modeling,
analysis and optimization of non-functional and performance aspects
such as security, timing, memory usage, QoS and
reliability. Model-based design of software architectures and
deployment. Theories, languages and tools supporting model-based
design flows covering software, control and physical
components. Monitoring and run-time verification of embedded
systems. Security attacks, protection and analysis of embedded
systems' hardware and software.
