Funds are requested to provide limted support to US based students to participate in CADathlon contest. CADathlon is an annual graduate student programming contest held in conjunction with the ICCAD (International Conference on Computer-Aided Design) conference held annually in SanJose, California. The contest problems are chosen from the Electronic Design Automation (EDA) field and are posed by EDA experts from academia and industry. The contest is open to all graduate students pursuing their degrees in EDA.CADathlon was started in 2002 and every year attracts 15-20 teams from universities all over the world. In the eight CADathlon contests held so far, one or more graduate student teams from 26 US and 10 foreign universities have competed. The winning and runner-up teams are awarded cash prizes. In this proposal, we seek NSF support to partially cover the expenses of 2010 CADathlon contest.CADathlon is a vehicle to attract students who are good at problem solving to the EDA area. CADathlon directly encourages a deeper study and understanding of critical problems in the EDA/CAD field for the participants. As such, it is an invaluable resource for encouraging young researchers to pursue graduate degrees and for laying the foundations of a career in research in these areas.

资金要求提供有限的支持，以美国为基地的学生参加CADathlon比赛。CADathlon是与每年在加州圣何塞举行的ICCAD（计算机辅助设计国际会议）联合举办的年度研究生编程竞赛。竞赛问题选自电子设计自动化（EDA）领域，由学术界和工业界的EDA专家提出。该竞赛向所有攻读EDA学位的研究生开放。CADathlon始于2002年，每年吸引来自世界各地大学的15-20支队伍参加。在迄今为止举办的八届CADathlon比赛中，有来自26所美国大学和10所外国大学的一个或多个研究生队参加了比赛。优胜和亚军队伍将获得现金奖励。在此提案中，我们寻求NSF的支持，以部分支付2010年CADathlon比赛的费用。CADathlon是一种吸引擅长解决问题的学生进入EDA领域的工具。CADathlon直接鼓励参与者对EDA/CAD领域的关键问题进行更深入的研究和理解。因此，它是鼓励年轻研究人员攻读研究生学位和为在这些领域的研究奠定职业基础的宝贵资源。
