       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/

                             Final call for papers

                               Deadline extended!

   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: Extended: January 24, 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 at imec.be and sankaran at ti.com
