Call for Participation

The 2nd Workshop on Intelligent Memory Systems

November 12, 2000
Boston, Massachusetts
In conjunction with ASPLOS-IX 
http://arch.cs.ucdavis.edu/ims00

Increasing chip densities and inter-chip communication costs
continue to fuel interest in intelligent memory systems.  
Since the First Workshop on Mixing Logic and DRAM in 1997, 
technologies and systems for computation in memory have
developed quickly.  The focus of this workshop is to bring
together researchers from academia and industry to discuss
recent progress and future goals.

PROGRAM

Jan Rabaey, Professor EECS UC Berkeley, co-director of the  Berkeley
Wireless Research Center (BWRC

 
Theme

The limits imposed by power consumption are becoming an issue in most
areas of computing.  The need to limit power consumption is readily
apparent in the case of portable and mobile computer platforms — the
laptop and the cell phone being the most common examples.  But the need
to limit power in other computer settings is becoming important too.

This workshop is the third in a series of workshops and tutorials designed
to bring together researchers in the area of architecture-power trade-offs
and provide a forum for them to discuss their preliminary ideas.
The first of these meetings, the Power-Driven Microarchitecture Workshop
was held at ISCA98 in Barcelona, Spain. It helped raise the awareness of
the architecture community to concerns about power issues. This workshop
was followed by a tutorial, the Cool Chips Tutorial at MICRO32 in Haifa,
Israel.  It assembled a group of speakers from leading microprocessor
companies to give presentations on what they consider to be their critical
low power issues now and in the future, and some possible solutions to
these problems.


Topics of Interest:

 
Topics of interest are any subject that addresses power-aware
computing and communications.  The focus will be broad and includes on
microarchitecture, architecture, operating systems and compilers.


Paper submission guidelines:

Authors are requested to submit an abstracts of four 8.5 x 11 pages
or less.  The abstract should contain a title and a contact address.
All submissions must be by email to tnm@eecs.umich.edu.  The preferred
format is pdf, but postscript is also acceptable if it is viewable
by ghostscript.

Important dates:

Paper submission:                  November 7th, 2000 Notification of
acceptance         November 10th, 2000

Camera-ready due                   November 17th, 2000
