Call for Paper ACM conference Computing Frontier 2012
We are Glad to invite you to participate in the upcoming conference, IEEE
computing Frontier 2012
The 9th ACM International Conference on Computing Frontiers
May 15-17, 2012, Cagliari, Italy
Sponsored by ACM SIGMICRO
http://www.computingfrontiers.org
The increasing complexity, performance, cost and energy efficiency needs of
current and future applications require novel and innovative approaches for
the design of computing systems. Boundaries between state of the art and
revolutionary innovation constitute the computing frontiers that must be
pushed forward to provide the support required for the advancement of
science, engineering and information technology. The Computing Frontiers
conference focuses on a wide spectrum of advanced technologies and
radically new solutions relevant to the development of the whole spectrum
of computer systems, from embedded to high-performance computing.
Authors are invited to submit full papers to the main conference and Ph.D.
students are invited to submit an extended abstract for a special Ph.D.
forum and poster session We seek contributions on novel computing
paradigms, computational models, application paradigms, computer
architecture, development environments, compilers, or operating
environments. Papers are solicited in, but not limited to, the following
areas:
? Applications, programming and performance analysis of advanced
architectures
? Next-generation high performance computing and systems
? Accelerators: many-core, GPU, custom, reconfigurable, embedded, and hybrid
? Defect- and variability-tolerant designs, dependable computing
? Power and energy efficiency: architectures, compilers and algorithms
? Virtualization and virtual machines
? Cloud-, internet-scale, service-oriented and smart infrastructure
computing
? Compilers and operating systems: adaptive, run-time, and auto-tuning
? System management and security
? Impact of novel technology (e.g. NV memory, silicon photonics) on
computing
? Computational neuroscience, neuromorphic and biologically-inspired
architectures
? Computational aspects of intelligent systems and robotics
? Reconfigurable, autonomic, organic, and self-organizing computation and
systems
? Interfaces and visualization for emerging applications and systems
? Novel frontiers in computational science and scientific data repositories
? Storing, managing, analysing, and searching large data sets (" big data ")
? Sensors and sensor networks.
