A reminder that nominations are being accepted now through June 30 for the 2024 Phil Kaufman Award and the Phil Kaufman Hall of Fame co-sponsored by the ESD Alliance and the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA). The awards, determined by a committee of volunteers from both organizations, recognize individuals whose contributions made an impact within electronic system design in business, industry direction, promotion, technology and engineering, educational or mentoring. The Phil Kaufman Award honors EDA pioneer Phil Kaufman who turned innovative technologies such as silicon compilation and emulation into businesses that have benefited electronic designers. The Phil Kaufman Hall of Fame posthumously recognizes individuals who made significant and noteworthy contributions through creativity, entrepreneurism and innovation to the electronic system design industry and were not recipients of the Phil Kaufman Award. Nomination forms are found on the ESD Alliance website.
