The 36th International Symposium on Microarchitecture is the premier
forum for discussing new microarchitecture and software techniques.
The goals of this symposium are to bring together researchers in
fields related to processor architecture, compilers, and systems for
technical interaction on traditional MICRO topics, with a special
emphasis on optimizations to take advantage of application specific
opportunities. In addition, this year's MICRO will be looking for
contributions that will benefit both the microarchitecture and
embedded architecture communities. This year's conference will be held
in sunny San Diego. Novel papers are solicited on a broad range of
topics, including, but not limited to:
Feedback-Directed Hardware/Software Optimization
Dynamic optimization, emulation, and object code translation
Characterizing application behavior and its implication for architecture design and performance
Multiprocessor, multithreaded, superscalar and VLIW processors
Instruction level and thread level parallelism
Speculation, prediction and predication
Application Specific Processors (ASIPs)
Network processor and router architectures
Embedded architecture and software optimizations
Memory system performance
Power and energy optimization
Architecture modeling and simulation methodology
Performance evaluation and measurement of real systems
