Abstract

<p class="plain"> The 21st IEEE International Conference on Application&#8211;specific Systems, Architectures and Processors&#046; This year&#8242;s event takes place in Rennes, capital of Brittany in France&#046; </p> <p class="plain">The history of the event traces back to the International Workshop on Systolic Arrays, organized in 1986 in Oxford, UK&#046; It later developed into the International Conference on Application Specific Array Processors&#046; With its current title, it was organized for the first time in Chicago, USA in 1996&#046; Since then it has alternated between Europe and North&#8211;America&#046;</p> <p class="plain"> The conference will cover the theory and practice of application&#8211;specific systems, architectures and processors&#046; Areas for application&#8211;specific computing are many and varied&#046; Some sample application areas include information systems, signal and image processing, multimedia systems, communication, high&#8211;speed networks, sensor networks, compression, graphics, cryptography, and many areas of computational science&#046; Aspects of application&#8211;specific computing that are of interest include, but are not limited to:</p> <p class="plain"> Application&#8211;specific systems: network computing, special&#8211;purpose systems, performance evaluation, design languages, compilers, operating systems, nanocomputing systems and applications, hardware/software integration and rapid prototyping&#046;</p> <p class="plain"> Application&#8211;specific architectures: special&#8211;purpose designs, design methodology, CAD tools, fault tolerance, specifications and interfaces, networks&#8211;on&#8211;a&#8211;chip, hardware/software co&#8211;design, processor arrays, SoC, superscalar, multithreaded, VLIW and EPIC architectures&#046;</p> <p class="plain"> Application&#8211;specific processors: digital signal processing, computer arithmetic, reconfigurable/custom computing, implementation methodologies, new technologies, fine&#8211;grain parallelism, FPGAs,low&#8211;power designs and asynchronous hardware&#046;</p>
