Call For Papers - AMAS-DO - Architectural and Microarchitectural Support for Dynamic Optimization, joint with CGO'2016 (Barcelona, March 2016)

                                      AMAS-DO
Workshop On Architectural and Microarchitectural Support for Dynamic Optimization
Joint with CGO-2016


                                              Call for Papers


Long employed by industry, large-scale use of binary translation and
on-the-fly code generation and optimization is becoming pervasive both as an
enabler for virtualization, processor migration and also as processor
implementation technology. The emergence and expected growth of just-in-time
compilation, virtualization and Web 2.0 scripting languages brings to the
forefront a need for efficient execution of this class of applications. The
availability of multiple execution threads brings new challenges and
opportunities, as existing binaries need to be transformed to benefit from
multiple processors, and extra processing resources enable continuous
optimizations and translation.


The main goal of this half-day workshop is to bring together researchers and
practitioners with the aim of stimulating the exchange of ideas and
experiences on the potential and limits of Architectural and
MicroArchitectural Support for Binary Translation and Dynamic Optimization
(hence the acronym AMAS-DO, reflecting a change from previous editions). The
key focus is on the challenges and opportunities for such assistance and
opening new avenues of research. A secondary goal is to enable dissemination
of hitherto unpublished techniques from commercial projects.


The workshop scope includes support for decoding/translation, support for
execution optimization and runtime support. It will set a high scientific
standard for such experiments, and requires insightful analysis to justify all
conclusions. The workshop will favor submissions that provide meaningful
insights, and identify underlying root causes for the failure or success of
the investigated technique. Acceptable work must thoroughly investigate and
communicate why the proposed technique performs as the results indicate.
