Theme
This special issue attempts to create a platform to foster new ideas
and technical insights in the fields of energy-efficient and
sustainable processor architectures and systems and their scientific,
engineering, biomedical, and commercial applications. In particular,
we would like to focus on issues on sustainable multi/many-core
computing and programming, cloud computing, system-on-chip
architectures/systems, application-specific multiprocessor
architectures/systems, and application support. We invite submissions
of regular papers with unpublished original results and, by
invitation, the revised and extended version of the papers presented
in the High-Performance Computing Architectures (HPCA) Track at the
12th International Conference on Information Technology: New
Generation (ITNG) and Euromicro DSD'2015 Conference.
Specific Topics
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Power- and thermal-aware multi/many-core processor architectures
* Low-power system-on-chip (SoC) and network-on-chip (NoC)
architectures
* Energy-efficient application-specific multiprocessor
architectures/systems
* Power- and thermal-aware algorithms and software for on-chip
applications
* Power and temperature modeling and monitoring mechanisms for on-chip
systems
* Energy-efficient application modeling and mapping schemes for
on-chip systems
* Energy-efficient parallelization and scheduling methodologies for
multi/many-core systems
* Parallel programming models and compiler design for multi/many-core
systems
* High performance computing and its scientific, engineering,
biomedical, and commercial applications
* MapReduce and cloud computing for data-intensive processing
* System/application support for power and thermal management
* System/application support for multithreading, synchronization, and
parallelism
* Debugger and performance analysis tools for multi/many-core
processors
