The International Symposium on Physical Design (ISPD) provides a premier forum to exchange ideas and promote innovative research in all aspects of physical design ranging from traditional topics for ASIC and FPGA designs to emerging technologies that impact physical design of integrated circuits (ICs). In 2025, ISPD will be held at Holiday Inn Midtown Austin in Austin, Texas. The 34th symposium will highlight key new directions and leading-edge theoretical and experimental contributions to the field.

Sponsored by ACM SIGDA with technical co-sponsorship from IEEE CEDA
