ISVLSI covers a range of topics: from VLSI circuits, systems, and design methods to system level design and system-on-chip issues, to bringing VLSI experience to new areas and technologies like nano- and molecular devices, and bio-inspired computing. Future design methodologies are also one of the key topics at ISVLSI 2005, as well as new CAD tools and techniques acting as catalysts. Over almost two decades this has been a unique forum promoting multidisciplinary research and new visionary research approaches in the area of VLSI. The proceedings brings together leading scientists and researchers from academia and industry. The papers from this symposium have been published as the special issues of top archival journals.

VLSI 2010 Annual Symposium will present extended versions of the best papers presented in ISVLSI 2010 conference. The areas covered by the papers will include among others: Emerging Trends in VLSI, Nanoelectronics, Molecular, Biological and Quantum Computing. MEMS, VLSI Circuits and Systems, Field-programmable and Reconfigurable Systems, System Level Design, System-on-a-Chip Design, Application-Specific Low Power, VLSI System Design, System Issues in Complexity, Low Power, Heat Dissipation, Power Awareness in VLSI Design, Test and Verification, Mixed-Signal Design and Analysis, Electrical/Packaging Co-Design, Physical Design, Intellectual property creating and sharing.
