Description

This workshop aims to bring together researchers and designers from academia and industry to discuss directions in the development of high-performance, parallel, and distributed processors and systems. The main goal of the workshop is to discuss future trends in the development of architecture and software systems and to explore the assumptions made by the architects about software systems and by software writers about architecture. The increased complexity in each of these areas calls for increased interaction with researchers from all of the other disciplines to accurately assess the potential directions and future trends in architecture and systems. The topics of interest include, but are not limited, to the following:

• Processor design
• Memory technology and system organization
• Software- and technology-driven and constrained new architectures
• Applications and their performance
• Power managementCompiler/architecture interaction and co-design
• 3D architectures and technologies
• Single-chip multiprocessors, multi-chip servers
• Large-scale multiprocessors
• Thermal and reliability issues
• Novel implementation technologies and devices

The workshop will consist of sessions combining individual presentations with discussion. Presentations will be limited to ~20 min to provide sufficient time for discussion. An ideal presentation will concentrate on trends and future directions in addition to recently obtained results. Speculation is encouraged.

Submission and Publication

Abstract Submission: January 4th, 2012

Post-Conference Full Paper Submission: August 1st, 2012

The submission of an extended abstract, up to 3 pages, is due by  January 4th 2012. Submissions should be electronic in PDF format. The abstracts will be reviewed and printed in the on-site proceedings. The final proceedings containing the full papers will be submitted to Xplore and CSDL after the meeting. The full papers will undergo additional review and be selected for publication in the post-proceedings. The full papers will be due by August 1st, 2012. Publication instructions will be distributed by Conference Publishing Services (CPS) at a later date
