The Integrated Circuits and Devices in Vietnam (ICDV) is an international forum for presenting chips and circuit designs in solid-state and semiconductor fields. Continuous scaling of the CMOS devices increases the number of transistors on a VLSI chip. It will soon reach the level of 10 giga transistors on a single chip, which is equivalent to the total neuron numbers in the human brain. This would certainly provide us a great opportunity for new applications and information processing. On the other hands, the small feature size causes new problems such as leakage current and process variation. To discuss utilizing the scaling advantages and coping with the new problems, we call for contributions about new proposal of application system, VLSI architecture, and design methodology as well as the technologies in the integrated circuit and device field. We expect to this workshop explores and stimulates the contributed researches to those subjects. The papers are solicited from prospective authors interested in the related fields. The conference is supported by the IEICE ICD technical group and will be held in Hanoi, Vietnam. Further details on the workshop, paper submission guidelines, and templates will be updated on the ICDV website at: http://www.uet.vnu.edu.vn/icdv2011/
