	  Recent Removals from SIGARCH Mailing List

		            Mark D. Hill

About August 25th, dozens of names were removed from the SIGARCH
mailing list.  ACM has not yet told me whether this was an attack or they
were removing names of those who had not renewed their SIGARCH membership.
For this reason, I will also forward this message to all I can determine
were removed.

                  We apologize if you receive multiple copies.

         4th Workshop on Feedback-Directed and Dynamic Optimization
                                FDDO-4
                        In conjunction with MICRO-34
                       http://www.microarch.org/micro34
                       In cooperation with ACM SIGPLAN
                             Austin, Texas
                            December 2, 2001
                        http://www.microarch.org/fddo4
                Sponsored by IEEE TC-MARCH and ACM SIGMICRO

This workshop provides a forum for the burgeoning fields of feedback-directed
and dynamic optimization. The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers,
developers, and practitioners to encourage collaboration and the exchange of
ideas on recent progress and future directions. Contributions are sought on a
diversity of hardware and software topics including, but not limited to:
* Systems for dynamic compilation, binary translation, and continuous profiling
* New and innovative analyses, transformations, and intermediate
  representations for dynamic and feedback-directed optimization
* Architectural and system support for dynamic and feedback-directed optimization
* Language extensions for dynamic and adaptive compilation
* Novel approaches to dynamic partial evaluation and program specialization
* Hardware and software mechanisms for low-cost performance monitoring
* Methods for supporting garbage collection, multithreading, and exceptions in
  dynamic and feedback-directed systems
* Techniques for increasing the flow of information between hardware and software
* Performance evaluation of dynamic or feedback-directed optimization systems
* Experience with real feedback-directed systems and large, complex applications

Deadlines:
Paper submission:            October  12, 2001
Notification of acceptance:  November  5, 2001
Final version of papers due: November 23, 2001

Submission: Talks will be accepted on the basis of a short paper that will be
published within the workshop proceedings. Complete information on how to submit
papers will be provided at the workshop web site (http://www.microarch.org/fddo4).
Other questions should be directed to the workshop chairs.

                   Held in conjuction with HPCA 8
 8th International Symposium on High Performance Computer Architecture
                        February 2-6, 2002

Peter  Z. Onufryk, IDT (peter.onufryk@idt.com)


Topics:
-------
A new distinct class of processors often referred to as network
processors, but also called communications processors, or packet
processors are emerging.  They are fundamentally different from
those for general purpose computing.  These processors are targeted at
communications applications such as routing, protocol analysis, voice and
data convergence, firewalls, VPNs, and QoS.   The goal of this workshop is
to provide a forum for engineers and scientists from academia and industry
to discuss their latest research in the architecture, design, programming,
and use of these devices.  We are especially interested in attracting new
or experimental techniques and approaches. Topics of particular interest
include, but are not limited to:

       Architectures for network, communications, or packet processors
       Packet classification
       Search engines
       Encryption and security
       Compression
       QoS
       Voice processing and packet telephony
       Software aspects of programming processors for networking
       Benchmarking and performance analysis
       Coprocessors such as CAMs and other support devices
       Interfaces to high speed packet buses and switch fabrics
       Techniques for accelerating network services
       Novel applications

The workshop will consist of invited talks, paper presentations and a
panel session.  A proceedings of the workshop will be provided to all
attendees and select papers will be published after the workshop.


Submissions:
------------
Please submit a one-page abstract in the pdf format for review to
haldun@photon.poly.edu.


Important Dates:

Abstracts due : October 26, 2001
Notification to authors : November 30, 2001
Final papers due: January 7, 2002
