Health <o:p></o:p> and safety are a primary concern to us and no unnecessary<o:p></o:p> risks will be imposed on authors.<o:p></o:p> *************************************************************<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> SAMOS is a unique conference. It deals with embedded systems <o:p></o:p> (sort of) but that is not what makes it different. It brings <o:p></o:p> together every year researchers from both academia and <o:p></o:p> industry on the quiet and inspiring coast of the Mediterranean <o:p></o:p> island of Samos, which in itself is different. <o:p></o:p> But more importantly, it really fosters collaboration rather <o:p></o:p> than competition. Formal and intensive technical sessions are <o:p></o:p> only held in the mornings. A lively panel or distinguished <o:p></o:p> keynote speaker ends the formal part of the day, and leads <o:p></o:p> nicely into the afternoons and evenings -- reserved for <o:p></o:p> informal discussions, good food, and the inviting Aegean Sea. <o:p></o:p> The conference papers will be published by Springer's Lecture <o:p></o:p> Notes in Computer Science - LNCS and will be included in the <o:p></o:p> DBLP Database. Authors are invited to submit technical papers <o:p></o:p> in accordance to the author's instructions describing original <o:p></o:p> work.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> IMPORTANT DATES<o:p></o:p> ---------------<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> - Submission deadline: March 11, 2022<o:p></o:p> - Notification of acceptance: May 6, 2022<o:p></o:p> - Camera-ready submission deadline: May 27, 2022<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> TOPICS OF INTEREST<o:p></o:p> ------------------<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> The SAMOS conference seeks paper contributions in two main areas:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> 1) Applications, Systems, Architectures, and Processors:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> This topic area focuses on advances in systems efficiency in <o:p></o:p> various domains. We seek original contributions describing <o:p></o:p> new architectural and micro architectural techniques aiming <o:p></o:p> to improve performance (e.g. processing throughput or real-time <o:p></o:p> latency), energy and power efficiency, reliability and <o:p></o:p> dependability of embedded systems. We solicit novel architectures <o:p></o:p> and computing methodologies and solutions for accelerating <o:p></o:p> applications in various embedded domains such as next generation <o:p></o:p> life sciences and medicine, next generation automotive and avionics, <o:p></o:p> next generation (machine) learning systems for surveillance and <o:p></o:p> recognition, immersive virtual reality. <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):<o:p></o:p> - Novel Architectures for Accelerators in High Performance Embedded <o:p></o:p> Systems;<o:p></o:p> - Application-specific and Domain-specific Embedded Heterogeneous <o:p></o:p> Multicore Systems;<o:p></o:p> - Embedded Reconfigurable Processors;<o:p></o:p> - Software tools, Compilation techniques and optimizations, and <o:p></o:p> Code generation for Reconfigurable Architectures;<o:p></o:p> - Architecture synthesis from Functional Languages Descriptions;<o:p></o:p> - Virtualization and Energy-aware Secure, Reliable, and High <o:p></o:p> Availability Multi-core Architectures;<o:p></o:p> - Embedded Parallel Systems and Multiprocessor Systems-On-Chip;<o:p></o:p> - Application level Resource Management of Multi-core Architectures;<o:p></o:p> - Memory Systems and Management for big data;<o:p></o:p> - In-/near-memory processing;<o:p></o:p> - Approximate Computing;<o:p></o:p> - Network-on-Chip, Software Defined Network-on-Chips.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> 2) Modeling, Design, and Design Space Exploration:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> This topic area focuses on all design processes for embedded systems <o:p></o:p> ranging from system-level specification, design languages, modeling <o:p></o:p> and simulation, performance, power, reliability and thermal estimation <o:p></o:p> and analysis, hardware/software and system synthesis, design and design <o:p></o:p> space exploration methodologies down to hardware and software synthesis <o:p></o:p> and compilation strategies. <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):<o:p></o:p> - Hardware/Software and Algorithm/Architecture Co-design;<o:p></o:p> - Design Space Exploration Strategies, Algorithms and CAD Tools;<o:p></o:p> - Specification Languages and Models;<o:p></o:p> - System-Level Design, Simulation, and Verification;<o:p></o:p> - Hardware, Software and System Synthesis Techniques and CAD Tools;<o:p></o:p> - MP-SoC and Platform Based Design Methodologies;<o:p></o:p> - MP-SoC Programming, Compilers, Simulation and Mapping Technologies;<o:p></o:p> - Profiling, Measurement and Analysis Techniques and CAD Tools;<o:p></o:p> - (Design for) System Adaptivity;<o:p></o:p> - Testing and Debugging.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> SPECIAL SESSION ON NEGATIVE RESULTS<o:p></o:p> -----------------------------------<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Like in previous editions, SAMOS XXII will again organize a special session <o:p></o:p> dedicated to the presentation of ideas that lead to negative results. <o:p></o:p> Contributions are expected to present the original idea, to explain why this <o:p></o:p> idea was expected to provide good results, to present how and why it failed, <o:p></o:p> and to discuss the presence (or absence) of solutions to solve encountered issues<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> JOURNAL SPECIAL ISSUE<o:p></o:p> ---------------------<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended <o:p></o:p> version of their work to contribute to a special issue of the Journal of <o:p></o:p> Parallel Programming (IJPP). <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Regards<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Dr. Anuj Pathania<o:p></o:p> Publicity Chair <o:p></o:p> SAMOS 2022<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> </div> </body> </html>
