Call For Papers
The IEEE/ACM International Conference on Codesign of Embedded Systems (CODES) is the premier conference in system-level design, hardware/software co-design, modeling, analysis, and implementation of modern embedded systems, cyber-physical systems, and internet-of-things, from system-level specification and optimization to synthesis of system-on-chip hardware/software implementations. CODES is part of Embedded Systems Week (ESWEEK), the premier event covering all aspects of hardware and software design for smart, intelligent, and connected computing systems.

Journal-Integrated Publication Model: All full papers accepted in EMSOFT’25 will be published in IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems (TCAD). All late-breaking papers accepted in one of the three conferences will be published in IEEE Embedded Systems Letters (ESL).
See details at http://esweek.org/author-information

In-Person Presentation Requirement: An accepted paper will be removed from the journal (TCAD or ESL) and the technical program unless both of the following conditions are satisfied: (1) One author of the accepted paper must register at the full conference (author registration) rate, and (2) An author of the accepted paper must present (in-person) the paper in the conference.   See details at http://esweek.org/author-information
