Congratulations to Jason Cong and coauthors Jie Wei and Yan Zhang. Their 2004 paper, A Thermal-Driven Floorplanning Algorithm for 3D ICs, has received this year's ICCAD Ten-Year Retrospective Most Influential Paper Award. ICCAD (International Conference on Computer-Aided Design) judged this paper to be the "most influential on research and industrial practice in computer-aided design of integrated circuits over the ten years since its original appearance at ICCAD."

About ICCAD
The International Conference on Computer-Aided Design, or ICCAD, is a yearly conference about electronic design automation. It is normally held in early November in San Jose, California. It is sponsored by IEEE Circuits and Systems Society, Computer-Aided Design Technical Committee (CANDE), the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA), SIGDA, and in cooperation with the IEEE Electron Devices Society, and the IEEE Solid State Circuits Society.
Unlike the Design Automation Conference, Design Automation and Test in Europe (DATE), and Asia and South Pacific Design Automation Conference (ASP-DAC), ICCAD is primarily a technical conference, with only a small trade show component.
