Michael:
I am concerned about the reduction in time for the conference. I had
planned on attending this year, but how do I go to my manager and ask for
funding this year when it is two less days for (I presume) about the same
money? Can you give me any ammunition to justify what will be perceived as
a 40% jump in dollars/hour?
Also, what does "which we believe will provide a more comprehensive user
group structure" mean? Was there a problem with the group structure before
:)
Thanks!

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Cadence Designer Network - Call for Papers
Importance: High
Greetings ICU member,
I am pleased to announce that the Cadence Designer Network is now accepting
abstracts for its inaugural conference called CDNLive! This conference
will continue to build upon the stable foundation set forth but by the
International Cadence Usergroup. As previously announced on the ICU web site
(http://www.cadenceusers.org), the Board of the ICU has voted to join forces
with Cadence to form this new organization, which we believe will provide a
more comprehensive user group structure. I am writing now to encourage you
to join me in supporting this new program and to invite you to participate.
The ICU has always been focused on high quality technical content that users
need to be more productive in this changing engineering environment. I
expect the technical focus will continue with this new organization, and
welcome the opportunity to bring more content, more technical papers, and a
larger visibility to the annual September event.
For more information about the Cadence Designer Network and to submit an
abstract please visit us at our web site: http://www.cadence.com/cdnlive
At this site you will have information regarding the CDNLive! Silicon Valley
conference which is being held at the Westin Santa Clara on September 12 -
14, 2005.
This technical conference provides users of Cadence products with a forum
for information exchange. These forums occur at both formal presentations
and during informal networking with other attendees. You will have the
opportunity to talk with other designers using Cadence technology-and with
the Cadence people who develop the technologies to help you face design
challenges. Presentations from users of Cadence products has always been a
large part of what the ICU was all about and this will continue with
CDNLive!. If you have a topic that you would like to present at this years
conference please submit an abstract today.
All submitted abstracts will be entered in a drawing for an iPod Mini
(http://www.apple.com/ipodmini). Also a trip for two to Cabo San Lucas will
be awarded by the Cadence Designer Network Steering Committee to the top
paper presented at the CDNLive! Silicon Valley Conference, as judged by
Steering Committee members.
Presenters of accepted papers, who submit their final papers by July 22,
2005, will receive a complimentary full-conference pass. All accepted
presenters will also receive an invitation to an exclusive dinner with
Cadence technologists on Wednesday, September 14.
Summary of important dates
Abstract submittal deadline: May 17, 2005
Notification of acceptance: June 20-24, 2005
Paper submittal deadline: June 22, 2005
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me directly.
