INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON
   COMPILERS, ARCHITECTURE, AND SYNTHESIS FOR EMBEDDED SYSTEMS

October 23-25, 2006 - Seoul, Korea
Hotel Lotte, Jamsil (www.lottehotel.co.kr/english/grand)

FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS

 

Demand for high performance embedded computing and increases in complexity of embedded software require leveraging diverse architecture, microarchitecture and compiler research. Application-specific solutions are needed in embedded areas, such as digital audio/video, imaging, game consoles, graphics, mobile and web appliances, and automotive systems. There are new challenges for embedded systems, such as time-to-market, cost, code size, weight, power, and real-time behavior.

The CASES conference provides a forum for emerging technology in embedded computing systems, with an emphasis on compilers and architectures for embedded systems. CASES is a common forum for researchers with an interest in embedded systems to reach across vertically integrated communities and to promote synergies.
As evident from the past CASES meetings, several emerging applications are critically dependent on these interactions for their sustained growth and evolution.

Embedded Systems Week - www.esweek.org
BIGGER THIS YEAR!
CASES (www.casesconference.org) will be colocated with EMSOFT (www.emsoft.org), CODES+ISSS (www.codes-isss.org) and other events including workshops and tutorials. Together they will represent an exciting event called Embedded Systems Week from October 22 to 25.
One Registration Three Conferences: registered attendees to either CODES+ISSS, CASES, or EMSOFT will be allowed to attend sessions in the other conference as well for free! (Associated workshops may require separate registration).
CASA Workshop
Compiler Assisted SoC Assembly (CASA) workshop is held in conjunction with the 2006 International Conference on Compilers, Architectures, and Synthesis for Embedded Systems (CASES - www.casesconference.org).

AREAS OF INTEREST

Previously unpublished papers containing significant novel ideas and technical results are solicited. Conference topics include, but are not limited to, the following areas.

  • Application-specific and domain-specific embedded systems
  • Compilation techniques that focus on embedded architectures
  • Customizable processors and digital signal processors
  • Design, specification, and synthesis of embedded systems
  • Dynamic compilation and managed runtime environments for embedded systems
  • Embedded uses of instruction-level parallelism, including VLIW, EPIC and superscalar
  • Embedded system integration and testing
  • Heterogeneous multiprocessing on a chip
  • Memory management, smart caches and compiler controlled memories
  • Novel architectures and micro-architectures for embedded systems
  • Low-power architectures, power vs. performance tradeoffs
  • Profiling, measurement, and analysis techniques of embedded applications
  • Reconfigurable embedded computing systems
  • Software design for multiprocessor embedded systems
  • System-on-a-Chip and System-on-a-Programmable-Chip architectures, compilers and tools
  • Validation, verification, and debugging techniques for embedded software
  • VLSI and circuit techniques for embedded system design
  • Multi-processor system-on-chip (MPSoC)
PAPER SUBMISSION
Papers should be submitted electronically through the conference web site, in PDF format. Submissions should be no more than 6000 words and 22 double spaced pages, with 1 inch margins and 11 pt font or larger. The paper must be single-column. Include a 200 word single spaced abstract in the first page of the paper. Please make sure you paper prints satisfactorily on 8.5"x11" paper, this is especially important from countries where A4 paper is standard. Authors may choose whether they would like to expose their identity to the reviewers, in which case authors' affiliations should also be included on the first page. Submissions not adhering to these guidelines may be outright rejected at the discretion of the program chairs. If you have any paper submission problem, please contact our program chair.
