CfP: SPECIAL SESSION on On-chip Communication Architectures for Multi-Core and Many-Core Systems in IEEE MCSoC Symposium
On-chip Communication Architectures for Multi-Core and Many-Core Systems (OCA-MC)
Special session in IEEE 9th International Symposium on Embedded Multicore/Many-core Systems-on-Chip (MCSoC-15)
http://mcsoc-forum.org/2015/?page_id=14
23-25 September 2015, Turin, Italy
This special session addresses all aspects of on-chip communication architecture design and test for multi-core and many-core systems. It presents new ideas in the on-chip communication field such as theory and modeling, scalable and fault tolerant design approaches and frameworks, tools and applications, analysis and comparison, design techniques and emerging implementations.
All accepted papers will be included in the proceedings of IEEE MCSoC-15 symposium, which are available worldwide through the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. An extended version of the best papers of the OCA-MC be invited to submit extended article versions to one of the ISI-indexed high-quality journals.
Authors are invited to submit high quality papers representing original work from both the academia and industry in (but not limited to) the following topics:
- Design space exploration and tradeoff analysis
- Novel bus and networks-on-chip architectures, including cluster interconnects
- Switching, buffering, topology, routing, and mapping algorithms
- Flow control and congestion management
- Virtualization, QoS, guaranteed throughput and on-chip real time communication
- Router microarchitecture
