Hot Interconnects is the premier international forum for researchers and
developers of state-of-the-art hardware and software architectures and
implementations for interconnection networks of all scales, ranging from
multi-core on-chip interconnects to those within systems, clusters, data
centers, and cloud facilities. This yearly conference is attended by
leaders in industry and academia. The atmosphere provides for a wealth
of opportunities to interact with individuals at the forefront of this
field. Themes include cross-cutting issues spanning computer systems,
networking technologies, and communication protocols for
high-performance interconnection networks. This conference is directed
particularly at new and exciting technology and product innovations in
these areas. Contributions should focus on real experimental systems,
prototypes, or leading-edge products and their performance evaluation.
In addition to those subscribing to the main theme of the conference,
contributions are also solicited in the topics listed below.
