Final call for papers:
=====================
*****************************************************************5th Workshop on Optimizations for DSP and Embedded Systems (ODES)
*****************************************************************
March 11, 2007
==============
San Jose, Ca
in conjunction with IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Code Generation and Optimization (CGO)
New submission deadline: January 19, 2007 (1 week extension!) =============================================================
The performance requirements of digital signal processing and embedded applications are rapidly increasing, but the power and cost budgets are decreasing. Optimization plays a very important role in managing the conflicting demands. The focus of this workshop is similar to its predecessors - understand the various optimization strategies applicable to the design of DSP and embedded systems for performance,power, and cost.
Topics of Interest
==================
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Algorithmic transformations and code/software optimization
Hardware and software optimizations for low-power consumption
and/or code density
Coprocessor and hardware accelerators
Compiler techniques and code generation for media processing
Frameworks for profiling and scheduling tasks (multiple/concurrent)
on various hardware resources (single-core + hardware
accelerators, dual-core, system-on-a-chip, etc)
Hardware/software tradeoffs with ASICs, FPGA's, DSPs,
general-purpose processors, microcontrollers, etc as building
blocks
Retargetable compilers and reconfigurable architectures
Important dates and deadlines
=============================
Submission: January 19, 2007
Acceptance: February 22, 2007
Final version: March 2, 2007
Submission guidelines
=====================
To encourage participation from both academia and industry, we are requesting submissions in either of two formats:
A full paper, not exceeding 10 pages in length, two-column formatting
preferred. It is expected that an accepted submission of this type
will result in a final paper appearing in the workshop's proceedings
OR
A set of slides, along with a brief description (1-2 pages) of the
main theme of the talk. It is expected that an accepted submission of
this type will result in a talk abstract and a set of slides
appearing in the workshop's proceedings
Include the list of authors and their affiliations, addresses, telephone and fax numbers, email addresses and the name of the corresponding author. Please send the submission/s by the deadline to:
Deepu Talla and Tom Vander Aa via email at deeputicom and vanderaaimecbe
