GROW '10 2010 - 2nd Workshop on GCC Research Opportunities (GROW '10)

2nd Workshop on
GCC Research Opportunities
(GROW '10)

http://ctuning.org/workshop-grow10

January 23, 2010, Pisa, Italy

(co-located with HiPEAC 2010 Conference)
****************************************************************************

GROW workshop focuses on current challenges in research and
development of compiler analyses and optimizations based on the free
GNU Compiler Collection (GCC). The goal of this workshop is to bring
together people from industry and academia that are interested in
conducting research based on GCC and enhancing this compiler suite for
research needs. The workshop will promote and disseminate compiler
research (recent, ongoing or planned) with GCC, as a robust
industrial-strength vehicle that supports free and collaborative
research. The program will include an invited talk and a discussion
panel on future research and development directions of GCC.

**** Topics of interest ****

Any issue related to innovative program analysis, optimizations and
run-time adaptation with GCC including but not limited to:

* Classical compiler analyses, transformations and optimizations
* Power-aware analyses and optimizations
* Language/Compiler/HW cooperation
* Optimizing compilation tools for heterogeneous/reconfigurable/
multicore systems
* Tools to improve compiler configurability and retargetability
* Profiling, program instrumentation and dynamic analysis
* Iterative and collective feedback-directed optimization
* Case studies and performance evaluations
* Techniques and tools to improve usability and quality of GCC
* Plugins to enhance research capabilities of GCC

**** Paper Submission Guidelines ****

Submitted papers should be original and not published or submitted for
publication elsewhere; papers similar to published or submitted work
must include an explicit explanation. Papers should use the LNCS
format and should be 12 pages maximum. Please, submit via the
easychair system at the GROW'10 website.

Papers will be refereed by the Program Committee and if accepted, and
if the authors wish, will be made available on the workshop web
site. Authors of the best papers from the workshop may be invited to
revise their submission for the journal "Transactions on HiPEAC", if
the work is in sufficiently mature form.

**** Important Dates ****

Deadline for submission: November 13, 2009
Decision notification: December 14, 2009
Workshop: January 23, 2010 half-day
