ACM SIGMICRO new membership offered at half-price to MICRO-34 registrants
(Free for students)


About ACM SIGMICRO:

The ACM Special Interest Group on Microarchitectural Research, SIGMICRO, specializes in computer microarchitecture, and especially in features permitting instruction-level parallelism and their related implications on compiler design. For the past 34 years, the annual MICRO conference (co-sponsored by SIGMICRO) has been a key forum for presenting major breakthroughs in computing architecture, and has established itself as the premier conference on instruction level parallelism. The SIGMICRO newsletter publishes once a year as the conference proceedings and is included as a benefit of membership in the SIG (i.e. SIGMICRO members get an extra copy of the MICRO proceedings in the mail).

ACM SIGMICRO has also recently been making progress toward new, exciting additional project goals beyond the MICRO conference, including:

• A new ACM SIGMICRO Web site to serve as a resource for computer micro-architecture teaching and research



• Various industry machine resources to be provided worldwide over the internet, for micro-architecture and architecture research purposes



• New awards for graduate students in the micro-architecture research areas



• Participation in a computer architecture CD-ROM anthology project, that will bring together many historical architecture conference proceedings.

ACM SIGMICRO is the right professional organization to belong to, if you are a microarchitect, microprogrammer, advanced compiler designer, or a researcher/developer of superscalar, pipelined, or fine-grain parallel computer architectures, or if you are interested in learning more about such microarchitecture topics.




Special new SIGMICRO membership offer to MICRO-34 registrants:

ACM SIGMICRO membership fees are normally $21/year for non-students and $8/year for students. However, for registrants of MICRO-34, we are making the following special offer, to those who are not already members of SIGMICRO and wish to become new members:

• If you are not a student: SIGMICRO membership is available to you at about half price ($10) for the first year.



• If you are a student, you can become a SIGMICRO member for free for the first year.

We are looking forward to seeing you as part of the ACM SIGMICRO community.
