Call for Papers ARCS 2008 21st International Conference on Architecture of Computing Systems - System Architecture and Adaptivity February 25-28, 2008, Dresden, Germany http://arcs08.inf.tu-dresden.de/

*Submission Deadline: September 17, 2007*

***********************************************************************

The ARCS series of conferences has over 30 years of tradition reporting top notch results in computer architecture and operating systems research. This year's special focus is set on adaptivity and adaptive system architectures. We intend to cover a wide spectrum reaching from pre-fabrication adaptation of architectural templates to dynamic run-time adaptation of deployed systems. Like the previous conferences in this series, it continues to be an important forum for computer architecture research. In 2008 ARCS will be hosted by University of Dresden, which has one of the leading information technology schools in Europe. The proceedings of ARCS 2008 is planned to be published by Lecture Notes on Computer Science (LNCS).

*Paper submission* Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers on one of the following topics: - Computer architecture topics such as CPU architectures, multi-cores, memory systems, and parallel computing. - Adaptivity and adaptive system architectures such as reconfigurable systems in hardware and software. - Operating Systems including but not limited to scheduling, memory management, power management, and RTOS. - System aspects of ubiquitous and pervasive computing such as sensor nodes, novel input/output devices, novel computing platforms, special purpose devices, architecture modelling, middleware, and localization technology. - Organic and Autonomic Computing including both theoretical and practical results on self-organization, self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing, and self-protection techniques. - Embedded systems including but not limited to architecture, communication, design methodologies, and applications. - Network Centric and Grid Computing issues with a focus on middleware.

Submissions should be done through the link provided at the conference website http://arcs08.inf.tu-dresden.de/. Papers should be submitted in pdf or postscript format. They should be formatted according to Springer LNCS style and not exceed 12 pages.

*Workshop and Tutorial Proposals* Proposals for workshops and tutorials within the technical scope of the conference are solicited. Submissions should be done through email directly to the workshops and tutorials chair (Andreas Koch, koch@esa.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de).
