Dear Participant,

The 21st International Conference on VLSI Design and the 7th International Conference on Embedded Systems are being held jointly from 4th to 8th January 2008 in Hyderabad.The conference is celebrating the 21st edition through commemorative issue(s) and events.

At this juncture when our domain is ‘technically’ being ‘redefined’ globally through multiple inflection points, Hyderabad– where it all began and which steered the direction at many a critical juncture, is there again to set the agenda of future for our technical progress through our conference. Coming out of teens couldn’t be more fun, more exciting and more worth experiencing.
