Preliminary call for papers

Optimizations are crucial to meet the performance, power and cost
requirements that DSP and embedded systems have. The aim of the ODES
workshop is to give the opportunity to researchers and practitioners
working on this, to share their findings and get feedback. We think
interacting with the community is crucial to do relevant research,and
therefore ODES tries to maximize the interaction by carefully selecting
the program committee members that review the submissions and at the
workshop itself, reserving enough time for discussion.

Topics of Interest

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

+ Algorithmic transformations and code/software optimization
+ Hardware and software optimizations for low-power consumptionand/or
code density
+ Coprocessor and hardware accelerators
+ Compiler techniques and code generation for media processing
+ Optimization techniques for algorithms and systems for video
compression, pre and post processing
+ Frameworks for profiling and scheduling tasks(multiple/concurrent) on
various hardware resources (single-core + hardware accelerators,
dual-core, system-on-a-chip, etc)
+ Hardware/software trade-offs with ASICs, FPGA's, DSPs,general-purpose
processors, microcontrollers, etc as building blocks
+ Retargetable compilers and reconfigurable architectures
