Abstract

<P class=just>The International Conference on Field Programmable Logic and Applications (FPL) is the first and largest conference covering the rapidly growing area of field&#8211;programmable logic&#046; During the past 20 years, many of the advances achieved in reconfigurable architectures, applications, design methods and tools have been first published in the proceedings of the FPL conference series&#046; Its objective is to bring together researchers and industry from all over the world for a wide ranging discussion on FPGAs, including, but not limited to: applications, advanced electronic design automation (EDA), novel system architectures, embedded processors, arithmetic, and dynamic reconfiguration&#046; </P> <P class=just>FPL is organized yearly in Europe and attended by top&#8211;level scientists and researchers&#046; The 21st FPL continues the tradition of the previous editions and will be hosted by the Technical University of Crete at Chania, Greece, in September 5&#8211;7, 2011&#046;</P> <P class=just>The Program Committee cordially invites you to participate and submit your contribution to FPL 2011&#046; The conference topics include, but are not limited to:</P> <H6>Reconfigurable Architectures</H6> <UL> <LI>Dynamic, partial, run&#8211;time reconfiguration</LI> <LI>Low power architectures</LI> <LI>Defect and fault tolerance</LI> <LI>Self&#8211;aware systems</LI> <LI>Self&#8211;configuration, self&#8211;testing, self&#8211;healing</LI> <LI>Adaptive communication infrastructure</LI> <LI>Reconfigurable embedded systems</LI> <LI>Interconnects and NoC’s</LI> <LI>Field programmable analog arrays</LI> <LI>FPGA’s vs&#046; Multicores/GPU’s </LI></UL> <H6>Applications</H6> <UL> <LI>Bioinformatics</LI> <LI>Communications and networking</LI> <LI>Application acceleration</LI> <LI>Medical solutions</LI> <LI>Experiments for high energy physics</LI> <LI>Astronomy</LI> <LI>Aerospace</LI> <LI>Biologically inspired systems</LI> <LI>Computational fluid dynamics (CFD)</LI></UL> <H6>Design Methods and Tools</H6> <UL> <LI>Dynamic, partial, run&#8211;time reconfiguration</LI> <LI>CAD for reconfigurable architectures</LI> <LI>Logic optimization and technology mapping</LI> <LI>Placement and routing algorithms</LI> <LI>System&#8211;level design tools</LI> <LI>Testing, verification and benchmarking</LI> <LI>Hardware/software co&#8211;design</LI> <LI>Compilers and languages</LI> <LI>Rapid prototyping</LI> <LI>Radiation tolerance and reliability</LI></UL> <H6>Surveys, Trends and Education</H6> <UL> <LI>Roadmap of reconfigurable computing </LI> <LI>Teaching reconfigurable systems </LI> <LI>Open source designs </LI> <LI>History/surveys of reconfigurable logic</LI> <LI>Emerging device technologies</LI> <LI>Tutorials</LI></UL> <P class=just>This year we also encourage papers introducing <U>open&#8211;source Design tools, compilers and/or benchmark circuits</U>&#046; In order for your paper to be considered in this category, submissions must demonstrate that this is a publicly available tool/circuit (e&#046;g&#046; providing relevant web&#8211;links)&#046; These papers will be evaluated mainly in terms of the applicability and usefulness of the presented open&#8211;source approach&#046;</P>
