<div>The 9th ACM International Conference on Computing Frontiers</div><div>May 15-17, 2012, Cagliari, Italy</div><div>Sponsored by ACM SIGMICRO</div><div><a href="http://www.computingfrontiers.org" target="_blank">http://www.computingfrontiers.org</a></div>
<div> </div><div>The increasing complexity, performance, cost and energy efficiency needs of current and future applications require novel and innovative approaches for the design of computing systems. Boundaries between state of the art and revolutionary innovation constitute the computing frontiers that must be pushed forward to provide the support required for the advancement of science, engineering and information technology. The Computing Frontiers conference focuses on a wide spectrum of advanced technologies and radically new solutions relevant to the development of the whole spectrum of computer systems, from embedded to high-performance computing.</div>
<div> </div><div>Authors are invited to submit full papers to the main conference and Ph.D. students are invited to submit an extended abstract for a special Ph.D. forum and poster session We seek contributions on novel computing paradigms, computational models, application paradigms, computer architecture, development environments, compilers, or operating environments.
