Call for workshops

The organizers of the 31st International Symposium on Computer Architecture and High Performance Computing, that will be held in October 15-18, 2019 in Campo Grande, Brazil, call for proposals for workshops to be co-located with SBAC-PAD 2019.

Workshops should provide forums for discussion among researchers and practitioners on focused topics or emerging research areas relevant to the community. Organizers may structure workshops as they see fit, including invited talks, panel discussions, presentations of work in progress, fully peer-reviewed papers, or some combination of the above.

Workshops could be scheduled for half a day or a full day, depending on interest, space constraints, and organizer preference. Organizers should design workshops for approximately 20-40 participants, to balance impact and effective discussion.

The peer-reviewed accepted papers of organized workshops will be published in the SBAC-PAD proceedings. Each paper must have at least three reviews for being eligible for publication.
