6 INTRODUCTIONS AND MEETING QUORUM Michael Mirmak declared that a quorum was reached and the meeting could begin. Curtis Clark introduced himself. He works on SI products and support for traditional IBIS and AMI models at ANSYS. He has attended IBIS ATM task group meetings for several years and has worked on BIRDs and BUGs. CALL FOR PATENTS Michael Mirmak called for any patents or pending patents related to the IBIS 3.2, IBIS 4.2, IBIS 5.1, IBIS 6.0, Touchstone 2.0, IBIS-ISS 1.0 or ICM 1.1 specifications. No patents were declared. REVIEW OF MINUTES AND ARS Randy Wolff called for comments regarding the minutes of the October 24, 2014 IBIS Open Forum teleconference. The minutes were approved without changes. He then called for comments regarding the minutes of the November 14, 2014 Asian IBIS Summit in Shanghai. The minutes were approved without changes. He then called for comments regarding the minutes of the November 17, 2014 Asian IBIS Summit in Taipei. The minutes were approved without changes. ANNOUNCEMENTS None. CALL FOR ADDITIONAL AGENDA ITEMS Bob Ross requested time to discuss social media. MEMBERSHIP STATUS AND TREASURER'S REPORT Bob Ross reported no change in membership with 22 paid members. The treasury sits at $41,185. The growth is due to Asian Summit expenses for China being paid from the account Lance Wang holds instead of from SAE. $21,600 is the accumulation of dues, $5,400 is from parser sales and $14,185 is from Summit accumulation. We are still waiting on the Taipei Summit hotel balance from Michael Mirmak. Bob is also working on parser license issues holding up some potential parser payments. He noted that he does not know how we settle with SAE for any yearly dues. Michael asked if SAE is expecting the same payment required from TechAmerica. Bob responded that Chris Denham of SAE has not given a specific assessment. WEB PAGE AND MAILING LIST ADMINISTRATION Mike LaBonte reported that he has a standing item to investigate what platform we might 2014 IBIS Open Forum 6

7 migrate our web pages to. He has had some conversations with SAE. We actually have a web page at SAE, but it only offers a few basic things such as the ability to upload documents. We will have to look elsewhere for a more professional website platform. Some people in Asia at the Summits commented that they would like more use of social media for IBIS. Michael Mirmak said that the assumption that and the web as the primary source for IBIS announcements and discussions are not enough. Using social media for events announcements and real time discussion of issues was thought to be better. Michael noted that we d need to support several social media platforms to be effective worldwide. Mike has looked into services such as LinkedIn, Sina Weibo, Twitter, WhatsApp and others. Our current s would need to be posted as web pages with links posted to social media. Lance Wang reported that he heard in Asia that a lot of engineers use mobile platforms and use social media for announcements. in China, even from freelists usually goes into junk folders in company filters. Social media could be used a lot for meeting announcements, BIRDs, officer voting, etc. This could be more effective for Asia. Which social media platform to pick is another discussion. Mike reported that a yahoo-based sent to the IBIS list did not go to about 10% of the list recipients. Mike has looked into freelists services for our IBIS s. Our task groups already use freelists. Also, freelists allows messages to get manually cross-posted to social media sites. LIBRARY UPDATE No update. INTERNATIONAL/EXTERNAL ACTIVITIES - Conferences Michael Mirmak mentioned the China Semiconductor Industry Association ICCAD conference in Hong Kong December The EDA Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is involved in the conference and has a lot of EDA and IBIS info on its website. More information is available at: Press Update None. ORGANIZATIONAL ACTIVITIES Bob Ross noted we need to decide on our dues for next year. Bob moved to keep the dues at $900 for This is for membership only and does not include a parser license. Radek Biernacki seconded the motion. There were no objections. Michael Mirmak noted that our current charter goes back about 20 years. There has been work 2014 IBIS Open Forum 7

8 by the board to turn the charter into an updated policies and procedures document. A major change is to allow online voting for officers elections. Some details are still being worked out. A vote to change the charter will be difficult to hold since it requires significant member company participation, but it should happen early next year. Bob requested that the officers meet soon to finalize the proposed charter changes. SUMMIT PLANNING AND STATUS - Asian IBIS Summit Reports Michael Mirmak thanked Lance Wang, Bob Ross and Anders Ekholm for their help organizing and running the events. Bob noted that the Shanghai Summit had 11 presentations and 98 people, the Taipei Summit had 8 presentations and 59 attendees, and the Yokohama Summit had 9 presentations and 111 people attending. Bob thanked the sponsors again. Lance commented that Yokohama was only a half day Summit but had 9 presentations. Lance added that Lanbing Chen noted at the Shanghai Summit that we have a vendor neutral presentations requirement, but Lanbing asked if we could allow presentations of test cases that had more vendor-specific content. This would be more like DesignCon. Bob noted that this could be useful for attendees, but we need to see if it is allowed by SAE rules. He had concerns about vendors becoming too competitive with their presentations. Michael asked Bob to take an AR to see what is allowed by SAE rules. Arpad Muranyi wondered if this could lead to inclusion of vendor-specific language in the IBIS specification, such as HSPICE compatibility in the [External Model]. Michael asked if there were any discussions in the ATM task group about a BSS element. Arpad noted that this hasn t been discussed in awhile. Michael asked Lance to take an AR to find out about preferences for including vendor material such as having breakout sessions or a second day of a Summit to cover vendor specific material. - DesignCon Planning Michael reported that an IBIS Summit is tentatively scheduled for Friday, January 30, Colocation with DesignCon is not currently finalized. Arpad asked if Monday could be a possibility, since late Friday travel is difficult for East Coast attendees. Michael responded that DesignCon would not be running on Monday. Tuesday would conflict with tutorials. Bob moved to schedule the Summit for Friday, January 30, Brad Brim seconded the motion. There were no objections. - DAC Summit and Poll Bob noted there was a question of whether or not to hold a Summit at DAC. He sent out a poll. It had limited response but showed there was little interest in a Summit at DAC. DAC located in San Francisco is also not convenient for the San Jose community. Bob moved to not hold a Summit at DAC in Mike LaBonte seconded the motion. There were no objections. - EPEPS Summit Bob sent out a poll in the last week to see if there was any interest in holding a Summit at EPEPS in He noted that several IBIS participants attended EPEPS in IBIS was specifically invited to attend and hold a Summit in Lance Wang noted that the date at the end of October is too close to the Asian IBIS Summits, so that might limit attendance from those traveling to Asia. Sponsorship opportunities for all upcoming IBIS summits are available, with sponsors receiving free mentions in the minutes, agenda, and other announcements.

9 further details. QUALITY TASK GROUP Mike LaBonte reported that the group is meeting on Tuesdays at 8:00 a.m. PT. They are continuing to look at IBISCHK issues. Work on documenting the IBISCHK6 messages continues. The work in progress can be reviewed at: The Quality Task Group checklist and other documentation can be found at: ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY MODELING TASK GROUP Arpad Muranyi reported that the group is meeting regularly on Tuesdays at 12:00 p.m. PT. The last meeting for this year is on December 9. Enhancement to the C_comp model is the main discussion topic. Next Tuesday the group will resume discussion of backchannel modeling with a presentation from SiSoft on industry needs. Task group material can be found at: INTERCONNECT TASK GROUP Michael Mirmak reported that the group is also discussing C_comp enhanced modeling and looking at boundaries of buffers, on-die interconnect and packages. The group is meeting regularly on Wednesdays at 8:00 a.m. PT. Task group material can be found at: NEW ADMINISTRATIVE ISSUES None. BIRD174: QUOTE CHARACTER CLARIFICATIONS Arpad Muranyi introduced the BIRD. It is a clarification of the use of quote characters in IBIS. This BIRD clearly states that only the baseline ASCII character set is allowed, so this will specifically prohibit certain double quote characters. Radek Biernacki thought that the parser checked for this already, so this clarification would follow the parser. Radek noted that the 2014 IBIS Open Forum 9

10 Editorial task group will need to make sure all examples in the specification are consistent with this BIRD requirement. Bob Ross responded to a question Arpad posed in the BIRD that, yes, file extensions are fixed in IBIS. He noted that file extensions are mentioned specifically in the BIRD, so that list may need to be updated in the future. Radek noted that the sentence could be changed to not include a specific list of IBIS file types to be more generic. Arpad thought that taking the list out from this part of the text may not help much in terms of not having to update the list when new file types are added, since it would have to be defined at least once somewhere in the specification. Bob moved to schedule a vote on a modified BID174.1 at the next IBIS Open Forum meeting. Radek Biernacki seconded the motion. There were no objections. Ted Mido noted that use of the back-quote ` character is troublesome and suggested that Arpad check for use of this.
