Call for Papers

The 2010 International Workshop on Multicore and Multithreaded 
Architectures and Algorithms (M2A2 2010)
May 21-23, 2010, Busan, Korea

http://cse.stfx.ca/~ica3pp2010/CFP-M2A2-10.pdf

In conjunction with:

The 10th International Conference on Algorithms and Architectures for 
Parallel Processing (ICA3PP 2010)
http://cse.stfx.ca/~ica3pp2010/


Multicore systems are already dominating the processor market, and it is 
expected that the number of cores will continue increasing in most of 
the commercial systems, ranging from embedded to high-performance 
systems. This trend is driven by the need to increase the efficiency of 
the major system components: the cores, the memory hierarchy, and the 
interconnection network.

To take advantage of the increasing number of cores efficient load 
balancing and scheduling policies or strategies are required. In 
addition, it remains a challenge to identify and productively program 
applications for these systems with a resulting substantial performance 
improvement.

On the other hand, the system designer must trade off performance versus 
power consumption, which is a major concern in current microprocessors. 
Therefore current design must focus on new architectures or 
architectural mechanisms addressing this trade off.

Finally, most real-time embedded applications are requiring 
high-performance computing and multicore and multithreaded processors 
are becoming the typical design choice.

The aim of this workshop is to provide a forum for engineers and 
scientists to address the resulting challenge and to present new ideas, 
applications, and experience on all aspects of multicore and 
multithreaded systems.

Authors are invited to submit high quality papers representing their 
original work in (but not limited to) the following topics targeting 
muticore multithreaded processors:
• Multicore and multithreaded architectures.
• Scheduling and load balancing.
• Multicore programming
• Parallel algorithms
• Power-aware architectures and computing.
• Embedded multicore real-time systems

Paper Submission and Publication:
Submit original unpublished papers in PDF formats at the workshop 
submission system: http://www.editorialsystem.net/M2A2-2010. All 
submitted manuscripts will be reviewed at least by three expert 
reviewers. Submissions will be judged on originality, technical 
strength, quality of presentation, and relevance to the workshop scope.
All accepted papers will be included in the ICA3PP-10 workshop 
proceeding published by IEEE (Our proceedings will be included in EI and 
other index). Final author manuscripts will be 8.5" x 11" (two columns 
IEEE format), not exceeding 8 pages; max 2 extra pages are allowed at 
additional cost. Helpful information for paper formatting can be found 
in the website. Moreover, after author’s notification, the Online Author 
Kit will be given on this website. Please format your camera-ready 
version according to this kit finally. Authors of accepted papers, or at 
least one of them, are requested to register and present their work at 
the conference, otherwise their papers will not be published.
Distinguished papers accepted and presented in M2A2 2010, after further 
revisions, could be considered for publication in special issues of SCI 
international journals.
