It is the continuation of the previous High-Level Synthesis workshop and symposium events. The symposium is oriented towards design automation professionals and presents the latest results in emerging synthesis and system design technologies. This includes: System-level synthesis, programmable processor based design and software synthesis, hardware-software co-design and behavioral synthesis. The program committee has selected 25 out of 79 submissions. Regular papers will be presented in five sessions of two hours, starting with a 10 minutes verbal presentation and followed by a poster session during which refreshments will be served. In addition there will be two invited presentations in the emerging areas of multi-media system design and state-of-the-art real time system technology. An original element of the symposium is a series of workgroup focus discussion periods that will involve all attendees. Finally two panels will address power issues at the system level and the convergence of industry expectation and system synthesis research. *WWW and Inquiries* All the latest information on ISSS'95, can now be accessed via a WWW page at URL: http://www.imec.be/isss/isss95.html For all other inquiries send email to jerraya@imag.fr or call (+33) 76 57 47 59 during office hours (GMT+2)
