Workshop: April 11, 2016
*** CALL FOR PAPERS ***
The dataflow model of computation (with SDF, CSDF, and DDF as primary
representatives) offers a powerful perspective on parallel computations
that may be conditioned in terms of data dependencies. It dates back to
the nineteen sixties and has applications in the design of real-time
stream-processing systems, especially in the area of digital signal
processing. The dataflow model of computation fits the characteristics
of embedded and cyber-physical systems, with a strong emphasis on both
the functional and temporal aspects of data processing systems. Dataflow
is gaining renewed popularity, stimulated by the trend towards multi-core
and multi-processor architectures, with an influx of work ranging from
using dataflow as a programming paradigm, for performance analysis, or
for design optimization. Topics of interest for IDEA 2016 include, but are
not limited to:
– Dataflow architectures and dataflow as a programming paradigm for multi-core
and multi-processor systems, for embedded systems and for cyber-physical
systems.
– Tools for compilation, evaluation, optimization or synthesis of applications
for heterogeneous and homogeneous multi-processor systems.
– Real-time scheduling, analysis, response time modeling, schedule synthesis.
– Variants of the dataflow model of computation, capturing e.g. dynamic
execution behavior, stochastic dataflow.
– Dataflow theory, relations between dataflow and other models of computation,
relations between dataflow variants.
– Dataflow in multi-disciplinary design, applications of dataflow in control,
integrating dataflow and control theory.
– Case studies of general interest describing the application of dataflow in
embedded computing and cyber-physical systems, ranging from automotive
systems, and avionics, to high-tech systems, smart buildings and smart grids.
*** Submission guidelines ***
IDEA 2016 invites two types of submissions: full papers and interactive
presentations.
– Full paper submissions will be considered for publication in a special section
of ACM ToDAES and should follow the guidelines of the journal; see below.
– Interactive presentations can be anything from a poster to a demonstration of
software or a prototype. Interactive presentation proposals should be submitted
in the form of a 2-page abstract.
Submissions should be made electronically, via EasyChair:
https://easychair.org/
Detailed submission guidelines can be found at the IDEA 2016 homepage.
*** PUBLICATION IN A SPECIAL SECTION OF ACM ToDAES ***
All accepted full paper submissions will be considered for publication in a
SPECIAL SECTION of ACM Transactions on Design Automation of Embedded Systems,
ACM ToDAES, todaes.acm.org. Full paper submissions for IDEA 2016 should follow
the ACM ToDAES author guidelines. Authors of papers accepted for IDEA 2016 are
expected to present their work at the workshop. After the workshop, revised
versions of the accepted workshop papers will undergo a second review round to
decide upon acceptance for the special section of ACM ToDAES.
