                             CALL FOR PAPERS

                  ADAPT: 3rd International Workshop on
                 Adaptive Self-tuning Computing Systems                            

                  January 22nd, 2013, Berlin, Germany
                     (co-located with HiPEAC 2013)

================================================================================

Computing systems are rapidly evolving into heterogeneous machines featuring
many processor cores. This leads to a tremendous complexity with an
unprecedented number of available design and optimization choices for
architectures, applications, compilers and run-time systems. Using outdated,
non-adaptive technology results in an enormous waste of expensive computing
resources and energy, while slowing down time to market.

The 3rd International Workshop on Adaptive Self-tuning Computing Systems is an
interdisciplinary forum for researchers, practitioners, developers and
application writers to discuss ideas, experience, methodology, applications,
practical techniques and tools to improve or change current and future computing
systems using self-tuning technology. Such systems should be able to
automatically adjust their behaviour to multi-objective usage scenarios at all
levels (hardware and software) based on empirical, dynamic, iterative,
statistical, collective, bio-inspired, machine learning and alternative
techniques while fully utilizing available resources.

All papers will be peer-reviewed including short position papers and should
include ideas on how to simplify, automate and standardize the design,
programming, optimization and adaptation of large-scale computing systems for
multiple objectives to improve performance, power consumption, utilization,
reliability and scalability.
