  INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON PARALLEL ARCHITECTURES AND COMPILATION
TECHNIQUES


OCTOBER 15-19, 2000


Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA


CALL FOR PAPERS


pact2000@ece.orst.edu

CONFERENCE OBJECTIVES


The purpose of this working conference, the ninth in the series, is to
provide an open forum for the parallel architecture and compiler research
communities to debate key issues of common interest, and to further the
state of the art in parallel architectures and compilers. We invite
researchers with interest in both conventional and non-conventional
approaches (MPP, SMP, clustered-SMP, PC-clusters, data-flow, ILP,
multi-threading, and optical) to participate. A new theme in the present
conference will be the role of compiler and compilation to reduce power
consumption. We solicit papers, which contain significant novel ideas and
research results. Conference topics include (but are not limited to):


    - Parallel architectures and computation models;
    - Theoretical foundations of parallel architectures;
    - Cluster computing based on PCs with commodity switches;
    - Cluster computing: Unix (Linux) versus NT;
    - Parallel processing in the context of JAVA;
    - Application-specific parallel architectures;
    - Compilers for parallel computer systems;
    - Compiler/hardware support for hiding memory latencies;
    - Advances in architectures and compilers for ILP (superscalar, VLIW,
        multiscalar architectures...);
    - Parallel programming languages and paradigms;
    - Application studies that demonstrate the performance of parallel
        computer systems;
    - Reconfigurable architectures;
    - Role of compiler and compilation Technology to reduce power
        consumption.
