------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ODES-6: 6th Workshop on Optimizations for DSP and Embedded Systems
April 6, 2008 Boston, Massachusetts
in conjunction with IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Code Generation and Optimization (CGO)
First call for papers
Optimizations are crucial to meet the performance, power and cost requirements that DSP and embedded systems have. The aim of the ODES workshop is to give the opportunity to researchers and practitioners working on this, to share their findings and get feedback. We think interacting with the community is crucial to do relevant research, and therefore ODES tries to maximize the interaction by i) carefully selecting the program committee members that review the submissions and ii) at the workshop itself, having both a formal presentation of the work as well as a poster session.
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 + Optimization techniques for algorihms and systems for video compression, pre and post 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 trade-offs with ASICs, FPGA's, DSPs, general- purpose processors, microcontrollers, etc as building blocks + Retargetable compilers and reconfigurable architectures
Important dates and deadlines
- Submission: January 14, 2008 + Acceptance: February 18, 2008 + Final version: March 3, 2008
Submission guidelines
To encourage submissions of early work and more mature work, we are allowing two submission formats:
- Either a full paper, not exceeding 10 pages in length, two- column formatting preferred.
- Or a set of slides, along with a brief description (1-2 pages) of the main theme of the talk.
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: Tom Vander Aa and Jagadeesh Sankaran via email at snipped-for-privacy@imec.be and snipped-for-privacy@ti.com
