Amazon.com description: Product Description: Current Issues in Electronic Modeling (CIEM) is a series of volumes publishing high quality, peer-reviewed papers dealing with modeling issues in the electronic domain. The objective is to establish a unique communication channel between academia and industry which will serve the growing needs in the field of modeling.
Electronic hardware modeling is the art of describing a device, or a system, for a given purpose (simulation, synthesis, etc.) by the use of preestablished conventions (charts, languages). Modeling is attractive since it provides for simplification and abstraction of the actual object or process. Using common modeling techniques and conventions facilitates communication and information sharing and helps speed the process of design, fabrication, testing and manufacturing.
Over the last several years there has been a dramatic increase in the development and use of modeling languages, models, and modeling techniques. The overall objective of this series is to provide a platform for dissemination of the basic concepts, techniques, and applications of modeling.
