Announcing MTV 2020
The 21th annual workshop on Microprocessor and SOC Test and Verification will be held in Austin, TX on Dec 7-8, 2020. Please consult the Call-for Papers for important information and deadlines. The submission deadline is expected to be around Sept 1, 2020. Please mark your calendar.
Scope
The purpose of MTV is to bring researchers and practitioners from the fields of verification, security and test together to exchange innovative ideas and to develop new methodologies to solve the difficult challenges facing us today in various processor and SOC design environments. In the past few years, some work has been done on exploiting techniques from test to solve problems in security and verification and vice versa. This is the 20th edition of the MTV Workshop, a testament to its success in providing an ideal environment for cross- examination of test, security and verification experiences and innovative solutions.

MTV 2019 Recap
The 20th MTV was held on December 9-10, 2019 and it was very successful and well attended by experts from around the globe. The full two-day program featured two keynote speeches, invited talks by verification and security experts, technical paper sessions and two panels. There were also several special sessions on the hot topics of security, machine learning, and functional safety. To encourage and promote technical exchange among the attendees continental breakfast and lunch were provided on both days. As customary, MTV attendees enjoyed a lavish banquet dinner at Fogo De Chao Brazilian restaurant in downtown Austin.
