Motivation

AI IN SEMICONDUCTOR MARKET SIZE, 2025–2034 (USD BILLION)
Source: precedenceresearch.com/artificial-intelligence-in-semiconductor-market

Adoption of AI in semiconductors is accelerating exponentially — from an estimated $65B market in 2025 to a projected $232B by 2034.

IEEE CEDA SWEAT 2026 is built to sit right at that curve: a focused, two-day exploration of how agentic AI is reshaping semiconductor design, verification and validation — and what that means for the engineers building it.

Workshop & Hackathon

Day 1 is built around one continuous arc: learn how AI agents apply to semiconductor workflows in the morning, then spend the afternoon actually building one with mentors in the room.

9:30 AM – 1:00 PM
Workshop on AI Agents for Semiconductors
A hands-on session covering how agentic AI applies across the chip design workflow — the foundation every team will build on in the afternoon.
2:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Hackathon Build Sprint
With mentors circulating and the morning workshop as reference, teams design and build an AI agent for a real semiconductor problem of their choice.
Students compete in teams of 3–4. Academia & Industry participants compete individually.
Suggested Themes
AI Agents for Verification
AI Agents for RTL Design
AI Agents for Physical Design & Layout
AI Agents for DFT & Testing
AI Agents for Silicon Validation
AI Agents for EDA Automation
Open Innovation — AI Agents for any Semiconductor Problem
