The 20th Reconfigurable Architectures
Workshop (RAW 2013) will be held in Boston, USA in May 2013. RAW 2013 is associated with the 27th Annual
International Parallel & Distributed Processing Symposium (IPDPS 2013) and is
sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society's Technical Committee on Parallel Processing. The workshop is one of the major
meetings for researchers to present ideas, results, and on-going research on
both theoretical and practical advances in Reconfigurable Computing.
A reconfigurable computing environment is characterized
by the ability of underlying hardware architectures or devices to rapidly alter
(often on the fly) the functionalities of their components and the
interconnection between them to suit the problem at hand. The area has a rich theoretical
tradition and wide practical applicability. There are several commercially
available reconfigurable platforms (FPGAs and coarse-grained devices) and many
modern applications (including embedded systems and HPC) use reconfigurable
subsystems. An appropriate mix of theoretical foundations and practical
considerations, including algorithms architectures, applications, technologies
and tools, is essential to fully exploit the possibilities offered by
reconfigurable computing. The Reconfigurable Architectures Workshop aims to
provide a forum for creative and productive interaction for researchers and
practitioners in the area.
Authors are invited to submit manuscripts of original
unpublished research in all areas of reconfigurable systems, including
architectures, algorithms, applications, software and cross-cutting areas. Topics
of interest include, but are not limited to:
Architectures & Algorithms · Theoretical
Interconnect and Computation Models · Algorithmic
Techniques and Mapping · Run-Time
Reconfiguration Models and Architectures ·
Emerging Technologies (optical models, 3D
Interconnects, devices) ·
Bounds and Complexity Issues ·
Analog Arrays |
Reconfigurable Systems &
Applications · Reconfigurable
accelerators (HPC, Bioinformatics, Multicore environments) · Embedded systems
and Domain-Specific solutions (Digital Media, Gaming, Automotive
applications) · Distributed
Systems & Networks · Wireless
and Mobile Systems · Emerging applications (Organic
Computing, Biology-Inspired
Solutions) · Critical issues
(Security, Energy efficiency, Fault-Tolerance) |
Software & Tools ·
High-Level Design Methods (Hardware/Software
co-design, Compilers) ·
System Support (Soft processor programming) ·
Runtime Support ·
Reconfiguration Techniques (reusable artifacts) ·
Simulations and Prototyping (performance analysis,
verification tools) |
Submission Guidelines:
All
manuscripts will be reviewed by at least three members of the program
committee. Submissions should be a complete manuscript (not to exceed 10 pages
of single spaced text, including figures and tables) or, in special cases, may
be a summary of relevant work. Submissions should be in pdf-format
(preferred), or alternatively in Postscript (level 2) format.

IEEE CS Press will publish the IPDPS
symposium and workshop abstracts as a printed volume. The complete symposium
and workshop proceedings will also be published by IEEE CS Press as a CD-ROM
disk.
