Sponsored by
HiPEAC Compilation & Architecture
Seventh Framework Programme

Conference organized by
Universiteit Gent
Technische Universitaet Wien

The HiPEAC conference is the premier European forum for experts in
computer architecture, programming models, compilers and operating
systems for embedded and general-purpose systems.  Emphasis is given
on either cross-cutting research (embedded/high performance,
architecture/software stack, etc.) or innovative ideas (new
programming models, novel architecture approaches to cope with
technology constraints or new technologies, etc.).

The 9th HiPEAC conference will take place in Vienna, Austria from
Monday, January 20 to Wednesday, January 22, 2014. Associated
workshops, tutorials, special sessions, a large poster session and an
exhibition hall will run in parallel with the conference.

Paper selection will happen through the review process for ACM TACO,
the ACM Transactions on Architecture and Code
Optimization. Prospective authors submit their original papers to TACO
at any time before the paper deadline of June 14, 2013 to benefit from
two rounds of reviews before the conference paper track cut-off date
which is November 15, 2013.

See below for more information about the new ACM TACO 2.0 publication model
ACM TACO 2.0.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Processor, memory, and storage systems architecture
* Parallel, multi-core and heterogeneous systems
* Interconnection networks
* Architectural support for programming productivity
* Power, performance and implementation efficient designs
* Reliability and real-time support in processors, compilers and
   run-time systems
* Application-specific processors, accelerators and reconfigurable
processors
* Architecture and programming environments for GPU-based computing
* Simulation and methodology
* Architectural and run-time support for programming languages
* Operating Systems and virtualization for efficient platform usage
* Programming models, frameworks and environments for exploiting
parallelism
* Compiler techniques
* Feedback-directed optimization
* Program characterization and analysis techniques
* Dynamic compilation, adaptive execution, and continuous
   profiling/optimization
* Binary translation/optimization
* Code size/memory footprint optimizations


GENERAL CHAIRS
Jens Knoop, TU Vienna, Austria
Valentina Salapura, IBM, USA

About the ACM TACO 2.0 publication model
----------------------------------------

Over the last two years ACM TACO has optimized its internal
processes. Today, the average turnaround time from submission to first
response is 55 days which is less than two months. For revised
manuscripts, the review process goes even faster. In 2012, most
accepted manuscripts went through two rounds of reviews to reach a
final decision only 5 months after submission. Accepted manuscripts
are printed in the next ACM TACO issue   which means an extra delay of
at most 3 months. Hence, excellent manuscripts can make it from
submission to print in 6 months; papers needing a major revision will
make it to print in at most 9 months. The ACM TACO acceptance rate
after two review rounds was 24% in 2011; it is 26% in 2012. We call
this  ACM TACO 2.0.


ACM TACO 2.0 now has a review cycle and an acceptance rate which is
competitive with the best ACM conferences, but without the
inconvenient non-negotiable submission deadlines, and with the
advantage of being able to revise a paper based on the detailed review
reports by carefully selected reviewers, and of being published as
soon as it is accepted. On top of that, authors of original work
papers get an open invitation to present their paper at the yearly
HiPEAC conference, which is the premier European network event on
topics central to ACM TACO, attended by more than 500 scientists.
