Call for paper PDF version

The HiPEAC Workshop on Reconfigurable Computing provides a forum for researchers active in domains within the reconfigurable computing area. Its main focus is on reconfigurable architectures, tools that facilitate such architectures, and applications tailored for reconfigurable platforms. The workshop intends to bring together both hardware designers and software developers that make extensive use of reconfigurable computing. Moreover, it aims at enabling scientific discussions regarding future challenging issues.

Topics of interest

The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Reconfigurable Architectures:
    • Novel architectures (logic blocks, interconnects, I/O);
    • Reconfigurable fabrics combined with dedicated system blocks (DSP, processors, memory etc.);
    • Low power reconfigurable architectures;
    • Networks on Chip tailored for reconfigurable architectures;
    • Dynamic and run-time reconfiguration;
    • Defect and Fault tolerance.
  • Reconfigurable Tools and Technologies:
    • System level design and HW/SW co-design;
    • Static and dynamic power efficiency;
    • Modeling, optimization, technology mapping and design verification;
    • Design and debug of reconfigurable systems;
    • Testing, verification and benchmarking;
    • Dedicated compilers and high-level languages.
  • Reconfigurable Applications and Algorithms:
    • Adaptive and bio inspired applications;
    • Application domain specific, e.g. multimedia, bioinformatics, cryptography and more;
    • High-performance, high reliability and/or power efficient application acceleration;
    • Rapid prototyping.

Submission instructions

Authors are invited to electronically submit papers of up to 10 pages in Springer LNCS format in the following website: http://www.easychair.org/HiPEACRC-WS-2008/.

Important dates

  • Paper Submission Deadline EXTENDED : November 12, 2007
  • Notification of acceptance: December 10, 2007
  • Final version due: December 24, 2007

There will be informal workshop proceedings for the participants, while selected papers will be extented for a special issue journal publication in Transactions on HiPEAC.

This workshop is co-located and organized in the framework of HiPEAC 2008 : 2008 International Conference on High Performance Embedded Architectures & Compilers .
