         Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society's TCI, TCCA, and TC-uARCH


The IEEE International Symposium on Performance Analysis of Systems  
and Software
provides a forum for sharing advanced academic and industrial research work
focused on performance analysis in the design of computer systems and  
software.
Authors are invited to submit previously unpublished work for possible
presentation at the conference.

Papers are solicited in fields that include the following:

* Performance evaluation methodologies
    o Analytical modeling
    o Statistical approaches
    o Tracing and profiling tools
    o Simulation techniques
    o Hardware (e.g., FPGA) accelerated simulation
    o Hardware performance counter architectures
* Performance analysis
    o Performance metrics
    o Bottleneck identification and analysis
    o Visualization
* Performance analysis of commercial and experimental hardware
    o General-purpose microprocessors
    o Multi-threaded, multi-core and many-core architectures
    o Accelerators and graphics processing units
    o Embedded and mobile systems
    o Enterprise systems and data centers
    o Supercomputers
    o Computer networks
* Performance analysis of emerging workloads and software
    o Software written in managed languages
    o Virtualization and consolidation workloads
    o Internet-sector workloads
    o Embedded, multimedia, games, telepresence
    o Bioinformatics, life sciences, security, biometrics
* Application and system code tuning and optimization
* Confirmations or refutations of important prior results

Next to *research papers*, we also welcome *tool papers* in order to reward
tool-building effort and publicize new tools to the community. Tool  
papers will
be judged more so on their potentially wide impact and use than on their
research contribution. Tools in any of the above fields of interest are
eligible.

See http://www.ispass.org for submission details.
