CALL FOR PAPERS SBAC-PAD 2008 20th International Symposium on Computer
Architecture and High Performance Computing 
Campo Grande, MS, Brazil
October 29 - November 01, 2008

Sponsors: SBC - Brazilian Computer Society IEEE Computer Society
=====================================================================

SBAC-PAD is an annual international conference series, the first of
which was held 21 years ago, in 1987. Each conference has traditionally
presented new developments and high performance computing, as well as
the latest trends in computer architecture. The conference has strong
international participation, with submissions from over dozen countries,
and is quite competitive, with around 100 submissions and a 30%
acceptance rate in the latest years 
(see http://www.sbc.org.br/sbac/  for program of previous years).

In 2008, the symposium will be held in the beautiful Campo Grande, Mato
Grosso do Sul, Brazil. SBAC-PAD 2008 is sponsored by the SBC (Brazilian
Computer Society), and the IEEE Computer Society through the Technical
Committees on Computer Architecture (TCCA) and Scalable Computing
(TCSC).

Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts that present original
unpublished research in all aspects of high performance computing and
computer architecture, and their applications. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:

- Application-specific Architectures 
- Benchmarking, Performance Measurements and Analysis 
- Cache and Memory Architectures 
- Embedded Systems 
- Fault-Tolerant Architectures and Systems 
- Grid, Cluster, and Peer-to-Peer Computing 
- High Performance Applications and Parallel and Distributed Algorithms 
- Interconnection Networks, Routing, and Communication 
- Languages, Compilers and Tools for Parallel and Distributed Programming 
- Load Balancing and Scheduling 
- Microarchitecture 
- Operating Systems and Virtualization 
- Parallel and Distributed Architectures 
- Pervasive and Heterogeneous Computing 
- Real World Applications and Case Studies 
- Reconfigurable Systems

Paper submission must be performed on-line at
http://www.sbc.org.br/sbac/2008. The deadline is May 19, 2008. The
proceedings are published by IEEE.

The authors of the best selected papers will also be invited to submit
extended versions of their work for possible publication in a special
issue of the International Journal of Parallel Programming.
