==================================================================
3rd Workshop on Advanced Interconnect Solutions and Technologies for Emerging Computing Systems Monday January 22nd, 2018, Manchester, UK Held in conjunction with HiPEAC 2018 CALL FOR PAPERS http://mpsoc.unife.it/~aistecs/ ================================================================== The AISTECS workshop promotes research and knowledge exchange on evolutionary as well as revolutionary interconnect technologies, in the perspective of interconnects adoption at all scales: from high-performance computing systems and datacenters down to embedded devices and the Internet of Things. Interconnects are subject to growing expectations in terms of performance and Quality of Service while being tied to shrinking power and cost budget, as well as thermal envelopes. To this end, the exploration of emerging interconnect technologies along with the design of disruptive/novel ideas at the microarchitectural network level are necessary. Both approaches lead to crucial challenges and interesting design tradeoffs that must be identified to enable widespread adoption of emerging technologies in next-generation computing platforms. Novel interconnect features may also disrupt the expected shape of future computer systems from the design point of view and also from the programmability and/or runtime management perspectives. The AISTECS workshop aims to foster development of advanced interconnect solutions, for emerging computing systems, and using emerging technologies. To this aims, the workshop gathers a complete range of perspectives, spanning from raw technology issues and solutions up to studies at the overall system level of modern multi-/many-core systems. This encompasses novel network solutions from both academic and industrial researchers.
