CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

12th ACM/IEEE International Conference on Methods and Models for System Design 
(MEMOCODE'14)
Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, October 19-21, 
2014
Collocated with FMCAD 2014

WEBSITE http://www.memocode-conference.com

OVERVIEW

The 12th ACM-IEEE International Conference on Methods and Models for System 
Design (MEMOCODE’14) will be held in Lausanne, Switzerland on October 19-21, 
2014. This year, for the second time, MEMOCODE will be collocated with the 
FMCAD conference, providing attendees the opportunity to attend joint tutorial 
sessions and keynotes. It will provide an excellent venue for researchers 
working on formal methods for CAD, and methodologies and models for embedded 
hardware and/or software design.

In the past, MEMOCODE emphasized co-design as its primary focus, but over the 
last decade, the clear boundaries between system components implemented in 
hardware, firmware, software, middleware or applications have blurred. This 
evolution in system design practices has necessitated a change in the title of 
the conference to cater to the needs of today's industry and research 
practices. 

MEMOCODE's main agenda is to bring together researchers in software design, 
hardware design, as well as hardware/software co-design, and exchange ideas, 
research results, lessons learned from each other and apply them to each 
other's areas. We want to emphasize the importance of models and methodologies 
in correct system design, and provide a platform for researchers and industry 
practitioners who work in any or all components of the system stack - hardware, 
firmware, middleware, software, architecture and applications.

KEYNOTES

This year, MEMOCODE’14 features three exciting keynote talks on

* “Proving (and revisiting) what programs do not”, by Bertrand Meyer, ETH 
Zurich and Eiffel
* “Security and privacy in implantable medical devices: an ongoing concern”, by 
Wayne Burleson, University of Massachusetts at Amherst
* “A framework for modeling architectures and their properties”, by Joseph 
Sifakis, EPFL


TUTORIALS

MEMOCODE’14 tutorial day is jointly organized with FMCAD’14 and comprises the 
following lectures

* “Efficient symbolic execution for software testing”, by Johannes Kinder, 
Royal Holloway, University of London
* “Challenges in Bit-Precise Reasoning”, by Armin Biere, Johannes Kepler 
University, Linz
* “Challenging Problems in Industrial Formal Verification”, by Ziyad 
Hanna,Cadence Design Systems       
* “A Tour of CVC4: How it works, and how to use it”, by Morgan Deters et al.

DESIGN CONTEST

MEMOCODE has a long history of a successful co-design contest section. Even 
within this design contest, we have seen an evolving trend. Initially the 
challenge problem started to be implemented as synthesis of co-processors for 
co-designing a specific computation intensive system.  Today, with GPUs, FPGA 
boards and other flexible hardware add-ons, we often find even software 
solutions that compete well with the purely co-processor based co-design 
solutions. This year, we introduce a software tool contest along with our 
traditional design contest to interest more software developers in taking part 
in MEMOCODE and showcase their skills in making software tools that instantiate 
methodologies and model-based approaches to system design.
