DESCRIPTION:TIE+ represents a new contest challenge under the TIE brand\, f
 ocused on virtual prototyping disciplines that support high-complexity PCB
  design. TIE+ will be implemented as an individual challenge\, managed usi
 ng an online platform\, nevertheless contestants will have to present thei
 r subject solutions in a live face-to-face meeting in front of the technic
 al committee.\n\nFor the upcoming sessions\, including this year’s editi
 on the contest’s disciplinary area will be Signal &amp; Power Integrity.\n\n
 The TIE+ concept emerged as a “natural” step forward in the support an
 d promotion of PCB design competence in the Romanian (mainly\, but not res
 tricted to) electronics professional environment.\n\nAs a response to the 
 highly increasing market demand for PCB design professionals to have also 
 expertise in fields like signal integrity\, thermal management and EMC\, t
 he TIE steering and technical committees decided to add a “plus” to th
 e current TIE event by incorporating also the area of virtual prototyping 
 .\n\nThe brief list of the TIE+ objectives would be:\n\n1. The promotion o
 f simulation based PCB design disciplines in universities and company base
 d R&amp;D centers\n\n2. Stimulating the development of future specialist in th
 e field of interconnect simulations in accordance to best-in-class compani
 es demands\n\n3. Create a collaborative-competitive environment where the 
 candidates presents their technical solutions\, but also exchange ideas on
  simulation approaches and get in touch other PCB design professionals\n\n
