Technology Aware Design (TAD) is a research program that started in 2001 at imec, Leuven, Belgium.^[1] It anticipates the end of the traditional "happy scaling" paradigm, where CMOS technology and CMOS design evolved on formally separate tracks, the interface between the two being standard cell, or SPICE compact models (see transistor models for circuit design).^{[citation needed]}

Today, both sides (design and technology) are confronted with the need to understand the other in order to overcome new scaling induced issues. The TAD program pursues analysis and solutions for these scaling induced problems.^{[citation needed]}
