• VLSI Systems
• Nanoelectronics and Gigascale Systems
• Software Systems
• Grid computing
• Pervasive Computing
• Radiation hardened systems
• Low Power Architectures and Systems
• Low Power Software
• Bioinformatics
• Integrated Security Systems
• Visualization
• Biometrics
• Biomedical
• Data hiding
• Blind Signal and Image Processing
• Wireless ad hoc and sensor networks
• Massively parallel architectures
• Multithreaded architectures
• Fine-grain parallel architectures
• Unique technologies (quantum well, optoelectronic, biologically inspired circuits/systems, RF and high frequency, etc)

Submission Guidelines:

• Prospective authors are invited to submit a full paper not exceeding 8 pages in length in standard IEEE two-column format

• Submissions should be made by attaching the PDF document to an email addressed to ucas5.2009 @ gmail.com (a CC to byeong.lee @ ti.com is recommended) which should include the following information for each author: Name, Affiliation, Address, Phone number and Email address.

• All papers will be reviewed by the technical program committee for quality, originality and relevance. We expect to publish selected papers in a Workshop proceedings. Please include the list of authors and their affiliations, addresses, telephone and email addresses and the name of the corresponding author.

Selected papers from UCAS-1 & UCAS-2 were published in an edited book titled "Unique Chips and Systems". Selected papers from UCAS-3 and UCAS-4 may be published as another edited book.
