Call for Papers
The 21st IEEE/ACM International Workshop on System-Level Interconnect Prediction (SLIP 2019)
Las Vegas Convention Center, Nevada, United States, June 2, 2019
Co-located with DAC 2019
Co-sponsored by the ACM SIGDA and the IEEE Computer Society
http://www.sliponline.org/
Overview: The ever-increasing complexity of modern networks shifts the design focus towards the interconnect driven challenges across all the levels of design abstraction. Advancements in design and prediction of highly interconnected systems are critical to markets such as intelligent autonomous transportation, innovative health care, sophisticated security systems, artificial bio-inspired networks, Internet of Things, and high-performance computing. The IEEE/ACM International Workshop on System-Level Interconnect Prediction (SLIP) is a unique opportunity to engage with experts from academia, industry, and government, specializing in a broad scope of interconnect prediction techniques, from applications to architectural and micro-architectural exploration to physical design, interconnect technology planning, and communication networks. Keynote talk will be given by Prof. Andrew B. Kahng, UC San Diego. In addition to the presentation of state-of-the-art papers in these fields, invited talks and panels by leading researchers will aim to encourage dialogue between the architecture, physical design, and interconnect technology communities.
SLIP 2019 is the 21st IEEE/ACM International Workshop on System-Level Interconnect Prediction. The workshop is collocated with the Design Automation Conference (DAC) 2019 in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Manuscripts that contain late-breaking results, works-in-progress, design frameworks, and conceptual papers are all will be considered. All accepted papers are expected to be included in both ACM and IEEE Xplore libraries. In addition, we highly encourage researchers and developers to submit proposals for tutorials. SLIP 2019 is co-sponsored by ACM SIGDA and the IEEE Computer Society.
Workshop Scope: Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Learning and predictive models for optimizing interconnect at various IC/system design stages
• System-level design for FPGAs, NoCs, reconfigurable systems
• Design, analysis, and (co)optimization of power and clock networks
• Topologies and fabrics of multi- and many-core architectures
• Power consumption of interconnects
• System level reliability, aging, and thermal issues
• Security-aware power/clock delivery and interconnect design
• Design-for-manufacturing (DFM) and yield techniques for interconnects
• High speed chip-to-chip interconnect
• Design and analysis of chip-package interfaces
• 3D interconnect design and prediction
• Applications of interconnects to social, genetic, and biological systems
• Bio-inspired connectionist systems, such as artificial neural networks
• Other complex networks and high-performance computing
• Emerging interconnect technologies in machine learning platforms & chips
Paper Submission Guidelines
Submissions should contain significant novel ideas and technical results that have not been published or concurrently submitted to any other venue.
