0451688TanThis award supports a planning visit to enable Professor Xiang-Dong Tan at the University of California in Riverside to meet with Professor Xianglong Hong at Tsinghua University in Beijing, China. The visit will help develop a collaborative plan for the development of computer-aided design (CAD) tools for physical design and verification of low power nanometer VLSI designs. The PI will finalize many details regarding the collaborative research and partnerships by: 1) preparing a number of joint funding proposals based on the research objectives and scopes; 2) holding a number of meetings with some semiconductor and electronic design automation (EDA) companies' technical representatives to discuss the sponsored research projects; and 3) present seminars to the faculty and students in the Design Automation Lab at Tsinghua University in order for the group to brainstorm new ideas.Professor Tan has many years of experience on VLSI circuit verification and optimization and Professor Hong is a world-renowned expert on physical design. The expertise and experience of the two faculty members are complementary for the proposed collaborative project, and they expect to collaborate through a coordinated division of labor. In addition to adding significantly to the core knowledge of simulation and optimization for nanometer billion-transistor VLSI designs, the anticipated research will provide unique training and educational opportunities for U.S. graduate students and undergraduate students by enabling them to obtain a global experience. It is anticipated that these early collaborations between the scientists and students from each country will lead to long-term collaborations that will benefit both institutions.

0451688 Tan该奖项用于资助加州大学滨江分校的Tan Xiang-Dong教授与清华大学的Hong Xianglong Hong教授的计划访问。 这次访问将有助于制定一项合作计划，开发用于物理设计和验证低功耗纳米超大规模集成电路设计的计算机辅助设计（CAD）工具。 主要研究者将透过以下方式落实有关合作研究及伙伴关系的多项细节：1）根据研究目的及范围拟备多项联合拨款建议; 2）与部分半导体及电子设计自动化公司的技术代表举行多次会议，讨论获资助的研究项目;及3）在清华大学设计自动化实验室为师生举办研讨会，让他们集思广益。谭教授在超大规模集成电路验证和优化方面有多年经验，洪教授则是一位世界级的-著名的物理设计专家。 两位教师的专业知识和经验是拟议的合作项目的补充，他们希望通过协调分工合作。 除了显著增加纳米十亿晶体管VLSI设计的模拟和优化的核心知识外，预期的研究还将为美国研究生和本科生提供独特的培训和教育机会，使他们能够获得全球经验。 预计两国科学家和学生之间的这些早期合作将导致长期合作，使两个机构受益。
