ICFPT 2013

CALL FOR PAPERS [pdf version is here].

ICFPT is the premier conference in the Asia-Pacific region on field-programmable technologies including reconfigurable computing devices and systems containing such components. Field-programmable devices promise the flexibility of software with the performance of hardware. The development and application of field-programmable technology have become important topics of research and development. Field-programmable technology is widely applied, in high-performance computing systems, embedded and low-power control instruments, mobile communications, rapid prototyping and product emulation, among other areas.

Submissions are solicited on new research results and detailed tutorial expositions related to FPT, including but not limited to:

Tools and Design techniques for FPT including placement, routing, synthesis, verification, debugging, run-time support, technology mapping, partitioning, parallelization, timing optimization, design and run-time environments, languages and modeling techniques, provably-correct development, intellectual property core-based design, domain-specific development, hardware/software co-design.
Architectures for FPT including field-programmable gate arrays, complex programmable logic devices, coarse-grained reconfigurable arrays, field-programmable interconnect, field-programmable analogue arrays, field-programmable arithmetic arrays, memory architectures, interface technologies, low-power techniques, adaptive devices, reconfigurable computing systems, high-performance reconfigurable systems, evolvable hardware and adaptive computing, fault tolerance and avoidance.
Device technology for FPT including programmable memories such as non-volatile, dynamic and static memory cells and arrays, interconnect devices, circuits and switches, and emerging VLSI device technologies.
Applications of FPT including biomedical and scientific computation accelerators, network processors, real-time systems, rapid prototyping, hardware emulation, digital signal processing, interactive multimedia, machine vision, computer graphics, cryptography, robotics, manufacturing systems, embedded applications, evolvable and biologically-inspired hardware, financial application, big data management, aerospace and extreme environment applications
Education for FPT including courses, teaching and training experience, experiment equipment, design and applications.

Submission Guidelines

The program committee solicits papers describing original research or high quality tutorial expositions in field programmable technology, including, but not limited to, the areas of interest indicated above. High quality posters are also solicited. Current postgraduate research students are invited to submit a short paper detailing their proposed research to be presented in a poster based Ph.D. forum. Papers should be submitted electronically via the conference website in PDF format, following the IEEE style. Full papers should not exceed 8 pages in length, while posters should not exceed 4 pages in length. Ph.D. forum papers are limited to 2 pages. FPT2013 uses a blind reviewing system. Manuscripts must not identify authors or their affiliations. Self reference should be blanked out. Papers that identify authors will NOT be considered. Proposal for half and full day tutorials in the areas of interest are also sought. Tutorials are likely to be scheduled for 8, 11 or 12 December.

Paper Submission Details

The program committee solicits papers describing original research or high quality tutorial expositions in field programmable technology, including, but not limited to, the areas of interest indicated in the CFP. High quality posters are also solicited. Current postgraduate research students are invited to submit a short paper detailing their proposed research to be presented in a poster based Ph.D. forum.

Papers should be submitted electronically via the conference website in PDF format, following the IEEE style. Full papers should not exceed 8 pages in length, while posters should not exceed 4 pages in length. Ph.D. forum papers are limited to 2 pages. FPT2013 uses a blind reviewing system. Manuscripts must not identify authors or their affiliations. Self-references should be blanked out. Papers that identify authors will NOT be considered. Because FPT uses a double blind reviewing process, reviewers do not know the authors of papers.

In order to avoid TPC members providing reviews for papers submitted by close colleagues (e.g., those from the same institution), authors should identify TPC members who would have a conflict of interest from the checkbox list on the submission page.
