                              CALL FOR PAPERS

                           3rd HiPEAC Workshop on
                          Reconfigurable Computing
                                (WRC 2009)

                      January 25, 2009, Paphos, CYPRUS

                    http://ce.et.tudelft.nl/HiPEACRC_WS/

   (this workshop is organized in the framework of the 2009 International
Conference on High Performance Embedded Architectures & Compilers HiPEAC 
2009)

********************************************************************************
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.

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

(1) 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.

(2) 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. 

(3) 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.
