ODES-6: 6th Workshop on Optimizations for DSP and Embedded Systems - Call for papers (Boston, Apr 08)

              ODES-6: 6th Workshop on Optimizations for DSP and Embedded
Systems


                                                        http://www.imec.be/odes


                                                                  April 6, 2008
                                                          Boston, Massachusetts


        in conjunction with IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Code
Generation
                                                          and Optimization (CGO)


                                                            http://www.cgo.org/


                                                          First call for papers


      Optimizations are crucial to meet the performance, power and cost
      requirements that DSP and embedded systems have. The aim of the
ODES
      workshop is to give the opportunity to researchers and
practitioners
      working on this, to share their findings and get feedback. We think
      interacting with the community is crucial to do relevant research,
and
      therefore ODES tries to maximize the interaction by i) carefully
selecting
      the program committee members that review the submissions and ii)
at the
      workshop itself, having both a formal presentation of the work as
well as
      a poster session.


    Topics of Interest


      Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:


          + Algorithmic transformations and code/software optimization
          + Hardware and software optimizations for low-power consumption
and/or
              code density
          + Coprocessor and hardware accelerators
          + Compiler techniques and code generation for media processing
          + Optimization techniques for algorihms and systems for video
              compression, pre and post processing
          + Frameworks for profiling and scheduling tasks (multiple/
concurrent) on
              various hardware resources (single-core + hardware
accelerators,
              dual-core, system-on-a-chip, etc)
          + Hardware/software trade-offs with ASICs, FPGA's, DSPs, general-
purpose
              processors, microcontrollers, etc as building blocks
          + Retargetable compilers and reconfigurable architectures


    Important dates and deadlines


          + Submission: January 14, 2008
          + Acceptance: February 18, 2008
          + Final version: March 3, 2008


    Submission guidelines


      To encourage submissions of early work and more mature work, we are
      allowing two submission formats:


          * Either a full paper, not exceeding 10 pages in length, two-
column
              formatting preferred.


          * Or a set of slides, along with a brief description (1-2 pages)
of the
              main theme of the talk.


      Include the list of authors and their affiliations, addresses,
telephone
      and fax numbers, email addresses and the name of the corresponding
author.
      Please send the submission/s by the deadline to: Tom Vander Aa and
      Jagadeesh Sankaran via email at vanderaa@imec.be and
