Call for Papers: ASAP 2019
The 30th Annual IEEE International Conference on Application-specific Systems, Architectures and Processors

(ASAP 2019)

Cornell Tech, New York, USA, July 15-17, 2019

Website: asap2019.csl.cornell.edu



The 30th IEEE International Conference on Application-specific Systems, Architectures and Processors 2019 will take place in Cornell Tech, New York, United States.



The history of the event traces back to the International Workshop on Systolic Arrays, organized in 1986 in Oxford, UK. It later developed into the International Conference on Application Specific Array Processors. With its current title, it was organized for the first time in Chicago, USA in 1996. Since then it has alternated between Europe and North-America. The conference will cover the theory and practice of application-specific systems, architectures, and processors. The 2019 conference will build upon traditional strengths in areas such as computer arithmetic, cryptography, compression, signal and image processing, network processing, reconfigurable computing, application-specific instruction-set processors, and hardware accelerators.

SUBMISSION OF PAPERS

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

All manuscripts will be reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. Submissions should be a complete manuscript or, in special cases, may be a summary of relevant work. A manuscript for a full paper should not exceed 8 single-space, double-column pages using 10-point size font on 8.5×11 inch pages (IEEE conference style) including references, figures, and tables. A manuscript for short papers should not exceed 4 single-space, double-column pages. Manuscripts for posters should not exceed 2 single-spaced, double-column pages. Submitted papers should not have appeared in or be under submission for a different workshop, conference or journal. It is also expected that all accepted papers (full, short or poster) will be presented at ASAP by one of the authors. Accepted full and short papers will be included in the proceedings and published in IEEE Xplore. Failure to present will result in the removal of the submission from the proceedings before publication. All papers must be submitted electronically in PDF format.
