Call for Papers
---------------

ASPLOS is the premier forum for multidisciplinary systems research spanning
computer architecture and hardware, programming languages and compilers,
operating systems and security, as well as applications and human-computer
interaction. The importance of such crosscutting systems research has been
growing hand in hand with the amount of parallelism in hardware, the scope
of distribution in internet-scale software, and energy constraints in all
forms of computers, from wearable to exascale.

ASPLOS 2013 invites original submissions on ground-breaking research on
current and future computer systems, from low-power embedded and
wearable devices to large-scale parallel computers. Submissions should
emphasize synergy of at least two ASPLOS communities: architecture;
programming languages; and operating systems. Papers on non-traditional
topics are especially encouraged.

Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Programming and compilation for parallel, distributed, and
heterogeneous systems

* Security, reliability and availability in distributed and cloud
  computing

* Software and hardware support for power, energy, and thermal
management at all scales

* Programming models for existing and emerging platforms

* Emerging computing platforms, including molecular, biological,
and quantum computing

* Virtualization, memory, and storage systems

* Application stacks for embedded and mobile computing

* Applications and systems that address social, educational, and
environmental challenges
