This book describes advanced flows and methodologies for the design and implementation of system-on-chip (SoC). It is written by a mixture of industrial experts and key academic professors and researchers. The intended audience is not only students but also engineers with system-on-chip and semiconductor background currently working in the semiconductor industry.

Integrated Circuits are available in every electronic product, especially in emerging market segments such as 5G mobile communications, autonomous driving, fully electrified vehicles, and artificial intelligence. These product types require real-time processing at billions of operations per second. The development design cycle time is driving costs and time to market more than ever before. The traditional design methodologies have reached their limits and innovative solutions are essential to serve the emerging SoC design challenges. In the framework of the Circuit and System Society (CASS) Outreach Initiative 2022 call, the SMART Integrated Circuits design methodology – named SMARTIC – Seasonal School was performed in November 2022, in Thessaloniki (Greece).
