In recent years, traditional processors have not been able to directly translate chip fabrication technology advances intro performance gains. To keep satisfying the demand for computing power, there is a shift from homogeneous machines to heterogeneous architectures combining different kinds of processors (CPUs, GPUs, DSPs, FPGAs, and other accelerators). While this approach has allowed significant performance and energy efficiency benefits, heterogeneous systems are often highly difficult to program with existing tools. To reduce the cost of system development, reengineering techniques emerge as a solution which may help to balance ease-of-development with better performance, better reliability, and lower maintenance costs.
The RePara2017 workshop it aims to join experts from related disciplines to share recent advances in different areas contributing to better transformation of new and legacy applications to different programming models for diverse computing devices in the context of parallel heterogeneous architectures.
Submission Guidelines
Papers submitted to the workshop should be written in English conforming to the IOS Press Book format (see templates at IOS Press site). The paper should be submitted through the workshop submission system at EasyChair. The length of the papers should not exceed 10 pages.
Authors of accepted papers, or at least one of them, are requested to register and present their work at the conference. 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 be removed from the proceedings book prior to its publication.
Submitting a paper to the workshop means that, if the paper is accepted, at least one author should attend the workshop and present the paper.
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference.
