18th IEEE International Conference on
Application-specific Systems, Architectures and Processors
July 9-11, 2007. Montréal (Québec), Canada

The conference will cover the theory and practice of application-specific systems,
architectures and processors. Areas for application-specific computing are many
and varied. Some sample areas include information systems, signal and image
processing, multimedia systems, high-speed networks, compression, graphics, and
cryptography.

Aspects of application-specific computing that are of interest include, but are not
limited to:

Application-specific systems: network computing, special-purpose systems,
performance evaluation, design languages, compilers, operating systems,
nanocomputing systems and applications, hardware/software integration, rapidprototyping.
Application-specific architectures: special-purpose designs, design methodology,
CAD tools, fault tolerance, specifications and interfaces, networks-on-a-chip,
hardware/software codesign, processor arrays, SoC, superscalar, multithreaded,
VLIW, and EPIC architectures.

Application-specific processors: digital signal processing, computer arithmetic,
reconfigurable/custom computing, implementation methodologies, new
technologies, fine-grain parallelism, FPGAs, low-power designs, asynchronous
hardware.

Information for authors:
Your paper should not have more than 6 pages. A PDF version of the complete
paper should be submitted via the conference web page at
http://asap-conference.org. Submitted papers should follow the instructions at
ftp://pubftp.computer.org/press/outgoing/proceedings/instruct.pdf; however the first
submission should be anonymous, i.e., the names and affiliations of the authors
should be omitted. For further information about the conference and paper
formatting instructions, please see the conference web page.
