ASPLOS is the premier forum for multidisciplinary systems research
spanning computer architecture and hardware, programming languages and
compilers, operating systems and networking, as well as applications
and user interfaces. The research may target diverse goals such as
performance, energy and thermal efficiency, resiliency, security, and
sustainability. The importance of such cross-cutting research
continues to grow as we grapple with the end of Dennard scaling, the
explosion of big data, scales ranging from ultra-low power wearable
devices to exascale parallel and cloud computers, the need for
sustainability, and increasingly human-centered applications. ASPLOS
embraces systems research that directly targets these new problems in
new ways.

ASPLOS 2014 invites papers on ground-breaking research on current and
future computer systems. Submissions should emphasize synergy of at
least two ASPLOS disciplines: architecture, programming languages,
operating systems, and related areas. Non-traditional topics are
especially encouraged. The review process will be sensitive to the
challenges of multidisciplinary work in emerging areas.

Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

- emerging platforms at all scales; e.g., networks of embedded
devices, multicore client devices, and cloud systems
- applications and systems that address social, educational, and
environmental challenges
- programming and compilation for existing and emerging platforms
- managing, storing, and computing on big data
- virtualization, memory, and storage technologies and architectures
- power, energy, and thermal management
- security, reliability, and availability
- verification and testing
- heterogeneous architectures and accelerators
- new computing model
