The conference is held once a year in August on the Stanford University campus in the center of the world's electronics capital, Silicon Valley. The emphasis this year, as in previous years, is on real products and realizable technology. Topics of interest for this year's conference include but are not limited to: * Microprocessors * Systems-on-chip * Embedded processors * Digital signal processors * Application-specific processors * Network/security processors * Graphics/Multimedia/Game processors * Communication/networking chips * Wireless LAN/Wireless WAN chips * Reconfigurable chips/processors * Low-power chips/dynamic power management * Novel chips: quantum computing, microarray * Reliability and design for test * Compiler technology * Operating system/chip interaction * Advanced semiconductor process technology * Advanced packaging technology Presentations at HOT Chips are in the form of 30-minute talks. Presentation slides will be published in the HOT Chips Proceedings. Participants are not required to submit written papers, but a select group will be invited to submit a paper for inclusion in a special issue of IEEE Micro. Submissions must consist of a title, extended abstract (two pages maximum), and the presenter's contact information (name, affiliation, job title, address, phone, fax, and email). Please indicate whether you have submitted, intend to submit or have already presented or published a similar or overlapping submission to another conference or journal. Also indicate if you would like the submission to be held confidential; we do our best to maintain confidentiality. Submissions are evaluated by the Program Committee on the basis of the performance of the device (or devices), degree of innovation, use of advanced technology, potential market significance, and anticipated interest to the audience. Research and software contributions will be evaluated with similar criteria. Authors will be notified of the status of their submission by the end of April, 2004. Don't miss this chance to present your work to an audience of engineers, computer architects, and computer system and device researchers. Submissions must be received no later than March 25, 2004. Please make your submissions in plain ascii text (in the message, not as an attachment) to: program@hotchips.org (Submissions containing figures may be submitted in pdf, but plain ascii is preferred.) For more information, see the Hot Chips 16 Web site at: http://www.hotchips.org Send questions to program@hotchips.org The program co-chairs are Prof. Bill Dally of Stanford and Keith Diefendorff. Sponsored by the Technical Committee on Microprocessors and Microcomputers of the IEEE Computer Society -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Call for papers: Temperature-Aware Computer Systems (submission deadline Apr. 5) This workshop will be held in conjunction with ISCA-31 in Munich, June 19-23. It will serve as a forum to explore a broad spectrum of topics pertaining to temperature-aware computer architecture, for researchers to exchange ideas and initiate collaborations, and will help to establish temperature-aware computing as an important research topic in its own right.
