Abstract

<p>SAMOS is a premier and well&#8211;established conference on embedded systems organized annually since 2001&#046; The conference brings together researchers from academia and industry on the quiet and inspiring northern mountainside of the Mediterranean island of Samos&#046; It provides an environment where collaboration rather than competition is fostered&#046; The conference considers new state&#8211;of&#8211;the&#8211;art mature research papers on all aspects of embedded processor hardware/software design and integration&#046; SAMOS X has IEEE technical co&#8211;sponsorship (also by the IEEE CAS Society and the IEEE SSCS Germany Chapter) and the conference proceedings will be published in the IEEE Xplore&#046; Authors are invited to submit technical papers in accordance to the author&#8242;s instructions describing original work in one of the following tracks: </p> <p> <b>The Applications, Systems, Architectures, and Processors Track</b> of SAMOS X focuses on issues related to the efficient execution of code across many platform domains&#046; Architectures for Instruction Set Processors including Low Power, Vector, Reconfigurable, Multimedia, Graphics, Real&#8211;time, Embedded, Multithreading, and SDR are targeted&#046; Contributions are welcome on new microarchitectural techniques to improve performance and efficiency including parallel execution, memory hierarchies, cache design&#046; Moreover this Track covers efficient execution of Applications and System implementations using novel architectural and microarchitectural techniques&#046; Topics of Interest include (but are not limited to): </p> <ul><li>Novel Architectures and Micro&#8211;architectures for Embedded Systems </li><li>Application&#8211;specific and Domain&#8211;specific Embedded Systems </li><li>Embedded Reconfigurable Processors </li><li>Multimedia and Graphics Architectures and Processors </li><li>Energy&#8211;Aware and Low&#8211;Power Processors </li><li>Embedded Parallel Systems and Multiprocessor Systems&#8211;On&#8211;Chip </li><li>Memory Management and Smart Caches </li><li>Network&#8211;on&#8211;Chip Interconnects </li><li>Digital Signal Processors </li><li>Software Defined Radios </li></ul> <p> <b>The Modeling, Design, and Design Space Exploration Track</b> of SAMOS X focuses on all aspects related to the design process of embedded systems: specification, modeling and simulation approaches, design methodologies, programming, synthesis and compilation techniques, performance and power analysis, and design space exploration&#046; Topics of Interest include (but are not limited to): </p> <ul><li>Hardware/Software Co&#8211;design </li><li>Design Space Exploration </li><li>System&#8211;Level Design, Simulation, and Verification </li><li>Design, Specification and Synthesis of Embedded Systems </li><li>Compilers and Mapping Technologies </li><li>Specification Languages and Models </li><li>Processor Simulation Technologies </li><li>MP&#8211;SoC Design Methodologies </li><li>Programming and programming models for MP&#8211;SoCs </li><li>Profiling, Measurement and Analysis Techniques for Embedded Systems </li><li>Computer Aided Design </li><li>(Design for) System Adaptivity </li><li>Testing and Debugging </li></ul>
