===================
Purpose And Scope
===================
Computer  systems  are   becoming  ubiquitous  and   provide  enormous
computational potential for  science, engineering, medicine,  finance,
and  entertainment.  The  ACSAC   conference  provides  a  forum   for
presenting research on most  aspects of computer system  architecture,
with   a  focus   on  parallel   architectures,  computation   models,
reconfigurable  systems,  high  performance  architectures, compilers,
power aware  techniques, ubiquitous  computing architectures  and next
-generation computing technologies. ACSAC has been held annually since
1996  to  allow  leading  research  groups  to  present  their current
research activities and their latest results.

====================
Topics of Interest
====================
 -Instruction-level parallelism (ILP)
   and thread-level parallelism (TLP)
 -Processor architectures and microarchitectures
 -Parallel architectures and computation models
 -Reconfigurable computing systems
 -Memory systems
 -OS for emerging architectures
 -High-performance I/O architectures
 -Compilers and tools for all of the above
 -Benchmarking and measurement of real systems
 -OS and architecture support for secure computing
 -Architectures for high-productivity embedded systems
 -Simulation and performance evaluation
 -Hardware support for OS and compilers
 -Energy efficient and power aware techniques
 -Interconnect networks and network interfaces
 -Methodologies and architectures for application-specific systems
 -Impact of VLSI scaling and advanced submicron design
 -High-availability, high-reliability
   and fault tolerant architectures
 -Hardware/software partitioning, co-design and co-verification
 -Self-timed/globally asynchronous locally synchronous designs
 -Mobile system designs and implementations
 -Ubiquitous computing and architectures
 -Next-generation computing technologies


===========
Workshops
===========
Workshop on  Urban Networks  and Applications  (UNA '08),  Workshop on
Zero-configuration  Application  Systems (ZCAS  '08)  and Workshop  on
Concurrent Programming Environment (CoPE  '08) will be co-hosted  with
ACSAC '08.

=============================
Paper Submission Guidelines
=============================
 Both research  and industry  papers are  solicited.  All  the accepted
 papers will appear in  the Proceedings of ACSAC  2008, which is to  be
 published by the IEEE Computer Society Press.

 Selected best  papers presented  at ACSAC'08  will be  published in  a
 special issue of the Journal  of Supercomputing (SCI Indexed) and  the
 Future Generation Computer Science (SCI Indexed).

 Papers are  limited to  8 pages  including figures  and references and
 they  must  follow  the  IEEE  8.5"x11"  two-column  format guidelines
 described at
http://www.computer.org/portal/pages/cscps/cps/cps_forms.html.

 Papers  should  be  submitted  electronically  in  PDF  format through
 https://www.softconf.com/starts/acsac2008/.

 The publication of  a paper requires  at least one  of the authors  to
 register and present at the conference.

 Manuscripts that are previously published or are being considered  for
 publication  elsewhere   are  not   eligible  to   be  considered  for
 publication.
