CGO-2008 Call For Papers

April 6-9, 2008  –  Boston, Massachusetts

Co-sponsored by IEEE Computer Society TC-uARCH   and ACM SIGMICRO  in cooperation with ACM SIGPLAN

The International Symposium on Code Generation and Optimization (CGO) provides a premier venue to bring together researchers and practitioners working on feedback-directed optimization and back-end compilation techniques. The conference covers static, dynamic, adaptive or continuous optimization. Original research contributions are solicited in areas including but not limited to the following:

•         Compilers, back-end code generators, translators, and binary optimization tools

•         Profiling and feedback-directed methodologies

•         Intermediate representations to support optimization

•         Thread extraction and thread-level speculation

•         Techniques for optimizing for parallelism, especially for multi-core systems

•         Power and energy efficiency optimizations

•         Optimization techniques for security and reliability

•         Optimizations for transactional memory

•         Memory management, including data distribution and synchronization

•         Program characterization and phase analysis techniques

•         Interaction of optimizations with modern hardware

•         Architectural and system support for optimizations

•         Experiences with real compilation and optimization systems, particularly with large, complex applications

IMPORTANT DATES: Abstract deadline is September 7, 2007. Submission deadline is September 14, 2007.  There will be NO EXTENSIONS.  Notification of acceptance will occur by November 9, 2007.
