****************************************************************************
IEEE/ACM CGO-2020 Call for submissions to Student Research Competition (SRC)
****************************************************************************

The ACM Student Research Competition (SRC) offers a unique forum for 
undergraduate and graduate students to present their original research 
before a panel of judges and attendees at CGO. Participants must be 
undergraduates or graduate students pursuing an academic degree at the 
time of initial submission. Participants must be current student members 
of the ACM. The abstracts will be examined by a selection committee and 
selected abstracts will be invited to present as posters at the 
conference. SRC poster submissions are, in addition, evaluated by a jury 
during the poster session at the conference. The best three posters are 
then invited to give a short presentation (10 minutes + 5 minutes 
questions) on the next day. Based on the submitted abstract, the poster, 
and the presentation, the winner of CGO's Student Research Competition 
will be selected, who will receive an award. In addition, the winner 
will be invited to participate in the grand 2020 ACM SRC competition. 
Further information on the ACM SRC is available at: https://src.acm.org

SRC Chair: Changhee Jung (Purdue University)

Submission Information:

Submission must be about unpublished work that is not under review 
anywhere. Extended abstracts of up to 500 words should be submitted by 
email to chjung at purdue.edu on or before December 15, 2019. All 
submissions will be reviewed by a selection committee. Notifications 
will be sent out by January 2, 2020.

Please format your submission using the SIGPLAN format found at 
http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/. Use one 8.5″x11″ single 
spaced, double-column page, with 10pt or larger font. Include your name 
and the name of your advisor(s). Optionally, send a pdf of the poster 
you plan to present (this does not have to be the final version of the 
poster).

Timeline:

Submission: December 15th, 2019 (AoE)
Notification: Jan 2nd, 2020

Submission Topics:

As in previous years, CGO will host a Student Research Competition (SRC) 
session. Submissions in the form of an extended abstract (details above) 
are solicited in any topics relevant to the main conference, including:

** Code Generation, Translation, Transformation, and Optimization for 
performance, energy, virtualization, portability, security, or 
reliability concerns, and architectural support
** Efficient execution of dynamically typed and higher-level languages 
Optimization and code generation for emerging programming models, 
platforms, domain-specific languages
** Dynamic/static, profile-guided, feedback-directed, and machine 
learning based optimization
** Static, Dynamic, and Hybrid Analysis for performance, energy, memory 
locality, throughput or latency, security, reliability, or functional 
debugging
** Program characterization methods
** Efficient profiling and instrumentation techniques; architectural support
** Novel and efficient tools
** Compiler design, practice and experience
** Compiler abstraction and intermediate representations
** Vertical integration of language features, representations, 
optimizations, and runtime support for parallelism
** Solutions that involve cross-layer (HW/OS/VM/SW) design and integration
** Deployed dynamic/static compiler and runtime systems for general 
purpose, embedded system and Cloud/HPC platforms
** Parallelism, heterogeneity, and reconfigurable architectures
** Optimizations for heterogeneous or specialized targets, GPUs, SoCs, CGRA
** Compiler-support for vectorization, thread extraction, task 
scheduling, speculation, transaction, memory management, data 
distribution and synchronization
