         Architecture” in Communications of the ACM 62.2 (2019), pp. 48-60)

=========================================================================
Overview:

The ARCS conferences series has over 30 years of tradition reporting
leading edge research in computer architecture and operating systems.
The focus of the 2021 conference will be on novel computer architectures
to overcome the inefficiencies in general-purpose processors. This includes
hardware architectures, programming models, runtime environments, cross-
sectional topics, and real-world use cases.
The proceedings of ARCS 2021 will be published in the Springer Lecture
Notes on Computer Science (LNCS) series. A best paper and best presentation
award will be presented at the conference. Facing the ongoing COVID-19
pandemic, ARCS 2021 will be a virtual conference with live presentations,
live Q&A, and up-to-date opportunities for virtual socializing.

* Emerging memory technologies

Programming Models and Runtime Environments
* Domain-specific languages and programming models
* Operating systems, hypervisors and middleware for homogeneous
      and heterogeneous multi-/many-core computing platforms
* System management including but not limited to scheduling,
      memory management, power/thermal management, and RTOS

Cross-sectional Topics
* Adaptive systems (energy aware, self-x technologies)
* Pervasive systems
* Autonomous systems
* Mixed-criticality systems
* Organic Computing
* Approximate Computing
* Support for safety and security

=========================================================================
Submission guidelines:

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers
via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=arcs2021
ARCS 2021 uses a double-blind reviewing system. Manuscripts must
not identify authors or their affiliation. When citing own work,
it must be done in a neutral form (i.e. avoiding ‘our’, ‘we’,
‘previous work’ etc.). Papers must be submitted in PDF format,
formatted according to Springer LNCS style (see:
https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines)
and must not exceed 15 pages, including references and figures.
