Call For Papers

The purpose of PACT is to bring together researchers from architecture, compilers, applications and languages to present and discuss innovative research of common interest. PACT features cutting-edge research on a broad range of topics, that include, but are not limited to:

  • Parallel architectures and computational models
  • Compilers and tools for parallel computer systems
  • Multi-core, multithreaded, superscalar, and VLIW architectures
  • Compiler/hardware support for hiding memory latencies
  • Support for correctness in hardware and software (esp. with concurrency)
  • Reconfigurable computing
  • Dynamic translation and optimization
  • I/O issues in parallel computing and their relation to applications
  • Parallel programming languages, algorithms and applications
  • Middleware and run-time system support for parallel computing
  • High performance application specific systems
  • Applications and experimental systems studies

Non-traditional computing systems topics.
