SAME 2010 Forum (Sophia Antipolis forum on MicroElectronics) provides an exceptional venue for discussions and demonstrations with the opportunity to meet exhibitors displaying microelectronics related products.

SAME 2010 Forum: A major European microelectronics event where you’ll meet key market players : industrial leaders, start-ups and academics.

Key Success Factor for the SAME 2010 Forum: a unique opportunity to debate key issues and future trends within a high level technical environment :

• New this year :
  • the SAME 2010 Forum will host the SAFA workshop (Sophia Antipolis Formal Analysis).
  • One more day in Rousset : October 8, 2010.
• The University Booth with demonstrations on EDA Software and Working Silicon Hardware.
• Emphasis will be given to the Start-ups, Tutorials and Technical Papers.
• An Executive Panel on “Microelectronics & Smart Energy”
• A Technical Panel on “Advanced Packaging Technology”
• A Key Executive Panel on “Mobile Ecosystem Platform Initiative”
• A Start-ups Panel.

The SAFA workshop provides a venue to exchange up-to-date information on formal description techniques in domains such as electrical and software engineering, and to root synergies between local academic and private researchers.

SAFA’2010 Workshop focuses on techniques around formal analysis, and more precisely :

1. Formal languages: definition, toolkits
2. Model-checking, proofs
3. Simulation, testing
4. Model-driven engineering
5. Embedded systems, distributed systems, security-related systems, service-oriented architecture
6. Industrial and teaching experience
