CALL FOR PAPERS

====================================================================================

The 21st International Symposium on Applied Reconfigurable Computing (ARC 2025)
April 9 - 10, 2025, Sevilla, Spain (arc2025.org)

====================================================================================

The requirements of electronic systems, in terms of functionality, performance,
costs, consumption, and reliability, make new processing paradigms,
architectures,and technologies necessary. Reconfigurable computing is crucial in
several application domains such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity,
communication, and automotive, among many others. This symposium aims to explore
and advance applications leveraging cutting-edge reconfigurable computing
technologies.

Now in its twenty-first edition, the symposium will be held in the beautiful city
of Seville, the capital of Andalusia in southern Spain. Beyond its academic
significance, this event provides a unique platform for researchers and
professionals to network, collaborate, and share the most advanced topics and
aspects of applied reconfigurable computing. This edition is being organized by the
Institute of Microelectronics of Seville, with the support of the Spanish National
Research Council (CSIC) and the University of Seville.

The ARC 2025 proceedings will be published as a volume in Springer’s Lecture Notes
in Computer Science (LNCS) series and will also be available through the
SpringerLink online service. The authors of the best ARC2025 accepted papers will be
invited to submit extended versions of their papers to a special section of
ACM Transactions on Reconfigurable Technology and Systems (TRETS) dedicated to ARC2025.

====================================================================================
