 Call for Workshop Proposal
 

 The 21st International Symposium on Computer Architecture and High Performance  Computing is looking for high quality workshops, to be co-hosted with the conference. Proposed workshops can be on any topic related to the Symposium, but we are particularly seeking for workshops in emerging new areas.

 The purpose of workshops is to create a forum for discussing themes that not only are associated with the conference topics, but also promote the integration with other research areas. The workshops may also serve as a platform for presenting novel ideas in a less formal and possibly more focused way than the symposium itself. As such, they also offer a good opportunity for young researchers to present their work and to obtain feedback from an interested community. The format of each workshop is to be determined by the organizers, but it is expected that they contain significant time for general discussion.

 Workshops may be held in Portuguese or English and may have a duration of half day or full day. The number of attendees per workshop is subject to the availability of meeting rooms. All workshop attendees must be registered to SBAC-PAD.

 The SBAC-PAD organizers will be responsible for the logistics of the workshops, including projection and computational resources. The meeting rooms capacity range from 60 to 200 persons. The workshop organizers will be responsible for publishing the electronic proceedings in a workshop Web page that contains all accepted paper in PDF format. The SBAC-PAD organization will also publish the electronic proceedings in CD. Any additional costs, such as travel and lodging for invited speakers are workshop organizers responsibility. The workshops will be held in Sao Paulo, SP, Brazil.
