                         Call for Posters


This workshop will bring together women and under-represented
minorities at different levels in academia, industry, research,
government and students to promote the recruitment, retention and
progression of women and minorities who are focusing on the technical field of computer architecture.

The workshop will highlight emerging and hot topics in computer
architecture, but also provide career mentoring advice, opportunities
for cross-disciplinary research, networking, finding internships and
career opportunities in computer architecture.

There will be no charge for the workshop. (We have partial funding and are seeking donations for the remainder.)
Students will be reimbursed for reasonable travel expenses.

Posters are solicited for research related to any aspect of
computer architecture. All researchers in the computer architecture fields are welcome to submit their work for presentation at this workshop. Each poster abstract will be reviewed by members of the TPC. Posters will not be published and hence can be under submission for other conferences or workshops.


Important Dates:
* Abstract Submission: November 14, 2014
* Notification: November 21, 2014
* Workshop: December 14, 2014


Submission Guidelines:
Each submission should be formatted as an extended abstract,
describing the research to be presented in the poster. The length
of the extended abstract should be at most TWO single-column pages (formatted into the US letter size of 8.5 × 11 inches with fonts no smaller than 10 point size), including all figures and references. The extended abstract must include the names, affiliations and email addresses of all authors and should be submitted as a single PDF file to EasyChair:
