15^th International Workshop on
Compilers for Parallel Computers
(http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/cpc10/)

Call for Participation (by invitation only)

Please note the extended abstracts deadline of March 1, 2010!

We cordially invite you to participate in the 15^th International Workshop on Compilers for Parallel Computers (CPC), organized by Vienna University of Technology's Compilers and Languages group (http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at). The workshop will be held from the 7^th to the 9^th of July, 2010, at Vienna University of Technology, in Vienna, Austria.

CPC 2010 is the fifteenth workshop in a series that started in 1989 in Oxford, England. It has been organized every one and a half years since and the other workshops have been located in Paris (1990), Vienna (1992), Delft (1993), Malaga (1995), Aachen (1996), Linköping (1998), Aussois (2000), Edinburgh (2001), Amsterdam (2003), Chiemsee (2004), Coruña (2006), Lisbon (2007), and Zürich (2009).

The main goal of the workshop is to bring researchers in compilation and associated areas together in an informal setting and a relaxed atmosphere in order to exchange ideas and to foster collaboration. This workshop covers all areas of parallelism and optimization; from embedded systems through to large scale parallel systems and computational grids. Thus, topics of interest include, but are not limited to,

• Parallel programming models and languages
• Parallelization techniques: user-directed, semi-automatic and automatic
• Optimizations for exploiting the memory hierarchy
• Optimizations for exploiting instruction level parallelism
• Optimizations for power consumption
• Profile directed and feedback assisted compilation
• Program analysis and program understanding tools
• High level specification and domain-specific languages compilation
• Architectural models and performance prediction
• Just-in-time compilation
• Static and dynamic optimisation techniques for performance and scalability
• Parallel runtime systems
• Continuous program optimization
• Program analysis frameworks and tools
• Backend code generation and optimization
• Compilation and optimization for multi-core systems
• Performance modeling and tools for performance tuning
• Architectural support for productive parallelization
• Any other idea that can affect programmability, language development and performance optimisation

We encourage submission on new and emerging topics and reports on work that is still under development. To enable participation by as wide a range of research groups as possible, we will restrict contributions to a maximum of two papers per group.

Proceedings and Journal Special Issue:

In accordance with the previous events, papers need not be unpublished but should reflect your current research and interests. Local proceedings will be printed and distributed to the participants. Selected original papers presented in the workshop will be published either as a special issue of "Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience", or as a volume in Springer "Lecture Notes in Computer Science", pending arrangements with the publishers.

Important dates:

February 15, 2010 March 1, 2010	Submission of presentation titles and abstracts (extended)
March 29, 2010	Notification of acceptance (extended)
May 31, 2010	Final paper submission
June 14, 2010	Registration deadline

Instructions for Authors

Authors should submit a one-page abstract and title for consideration to CPC10 (cpc10 at complang.tuwien.ac.at) by March 1^st, 2010. This should be followed by submission of the complete paper by May 31^st, 2010 (firm deadline!).

Camera ready papers not exceeding 15 pages will be published in local proceedings. Authors may chose to except their papers from publication by explicitly notifying the organizers. Selected articles will be published either as a special issue of "Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience", or as a volume in Springer "Lecture Notes in Computer Science", pending arrangements with the publishers. Please format your papers according to the Lecture Notes in Computer Science template. The necessary files for LaTeX2e can be found at Springer.

Authors should submit camera ready papers in PDF format of the final paper by sending an email to CPC10 (cpc10 at complang.tuwien.ac.at) by May 31^st, 2010 (firm deadline!).

To facilitate the edition of local proceedings, please send also a compressed file (zip, gzip, bzip2) including all source files (LaTeX code, figures, etc) needed to generate the PDF camera ready paper.

At least one author of each accepted paper is expected to register and present the paper at the Workshop.
