Abstract

The 23nd Reconfigurable Architectures Workshop (RAW 2016) will be held in Chicago, Illinois USA in May 2016. RAW 2016 is associated with the 30th Annual International Parallel & Distributed Processing Symposium (IPDPS 2016) and is sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Parallel Processing. The workshop is one of the major meetings for researchers to present ideas, results, and on–going research on both theoretical and practical advances in Reconfigurable Computing. A reconfigurable computing environment is characterized by the ability of underlying hardware architectures or devices to rapidly alter (often on the fly) the functionalities of their components and the interconnection between them to suit the problem at hand. The area has a rich theoretical tradition and wide practical applicability. There are several commercially available reconfigurable platforms (FPGAs and coarse–grained devices) and many modern applications (including embedded systems and HPC) use reconfigurable subsystems. An appropriate mix of theoretical foundations and practical considerations, including algorithms architectures, applications, technologies and tools, is essential to fully exploit the possibilities offered by reconfigurable computing. The Reconfigurable Architectures Workshop aims to provide a forum for creative and productive interaction for researchers and practitioners in the area.
