CALL FOR PAPERS Compiler, Architecture and Tools Conference (CATC) Intel Development Center, Haifa, Israel November 23rd, 2015 http://software.intel.com/compilerconf2015 Endorsed by the HiPEAC Network of Excellence ==================================================================== IMPORTANT DATES * Paper Submission deadline: August 6th, 2015 * Author Notification: September 10th, 2015 * Conference date: November 23rd, 2015 ==================================================================== OVERVIEW The interaction among advanced compilation techniques, modern processor and computing architectures, and associated tools continues to face new challenges and opportunities. Traditional demands to increase performance, reduce power consumption, and reduce time to market now apply to heterogeneous, virtualized and diverse user-experience environments. Extensive data and task parallelism are being exposed by new programming environments such as Halide, Swift, and OpenMP version 4.0, relying on innovative architectures, compilers, binary translation and runtime tools. This conference will focus on these exciting new directions and how they are influencing the architecture and compilation domain. The conference will be held in a format similar to that held last year leaving time for networking and presentations. TOPICS The main focus of this conference is the interaction of compiler technologies, processor and computing architectures and tools to address the latest programming environments and demands. The topics of interest for this conference include, but are not limited to: * Compilers, runtime and tools for modern server, client, mobile and embedded systems * Compiler/hardware support for hiding memory and I/O latencies * Compilation to hardware * Dynamic translation and optimization * Heterogeneous parallel architectures and computational models * GPU, accelerator and coprocessor architectures * Power/Performance/Monitoring tools for application behavior understanding * Parallel programming languages, algorithms and applications * Internet of Things INVITED SPEAKERS We are delighted to have Dr. Youfeng Wu, Principal Research Scientist at Intel and Prof. Mooly (Shmuel) Sagiv from Tel-Aviv University as our keynote speakers. VENUE The conference will take place at Intel Development Center (bldg. IDC9) in Matam Industrial Park, Haifa, Israel. Lunch and light refreshments will be served. Participation in the conference is free of charge, but registration is required. The official language of the conference is English. SUBMISSION Authors should submit an abstract of their contributions by email to Gadi Haber (gadi.haber at intel.com). Submissions must include an abstract of 100-300 words and contact information. The authors are encouraged to provide related documents with additional details on their research work, such as an extended abstract, paper, and/or links. Abstracts and eventually presentations will be provided online at the conference webpage. The conference does not include proceedings, however, with author approval, papers may appear online and extended versions of the best papers may be included in a special issue of IJPP. In addition, authors may submit papers recently presented in (or accepted to) top-tier conferences in the areas of interest.
