Workshop on Artificial Intelligence and Computer Architecture (WAICA)
Co-located with the 15th HiPEAC Conference on High Performance and Embedded Architectures and Compilation
Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly transforming industries, services, jobs, and even whole societies. Thanks to powerful algorithms, today's information systems are able to solve complex problems in areas as varied as structural engineering, medicine, genetics, environment, and transportation, while machine learning is even improving how computers themselves are developed. Meanwhile, new hardware developments, such as heterogeneous architectures which deliver energy savings without compromising performance gains, offer AI exciting opportunities for development. Linking both software and hardware, from embedded systems to high-performance computing (HPC) platforms, can inspire creative solutions which can improve both individuals' quality of life and society as a whole.
The Workshop will feature presentations on how novel computer architectures are powering artificial intelligence applications, or conversely how artificial intelligence is helping develop innovative computer architectures.
Submission Guidelines
WAICA will not publish workshop proceedings. Papers should be 4 to 8 pages long, and submitted in PDF format. Authors are free to publish in other venues subsequently. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Domain-specific architectures for machine learning applications
- Self-learning/self-improving computing systems
- AI-based solutions for computer architecture problems such as design/optimization of components in computer architecture and systems, such as branch predictor, cache, memory, I/O, interconnects, etc. performance/reliability/energy/security prediction
- Compiler optimizations
- Architecture-aware code optimizations for machine learning applications
- Architecture-specific implementations of machine learning algorithms
