Dear TCCA members, To minimize excessive amount of random emails floating around, the Executive Committee of the TCCA has decided to start Email-Monthly. The purpose of the Email-Monthly is to collect, reorganize and regularly distribute email messages that are of interest to our members. If you have messages such as Calls-for-Papers, Calls-for-Participations, or event announcements, please submit them to tcca@ele.uri.edu Received messages will be organized and distributed among our members on a monthly basis in a format similar to the following. ********************************************************** IEEE TCCA Email-Monthly: 1. Computer Architecture Letters, A refereed forum for technical letters. submitted by: Kevin Skadron, Associate Editor-in-Chief Call for Papers: http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~tcca/ 2. ISCA-2002, The 29th Annual International Symposium on Computer Architecture submitted by: Dan Connors, Daniel.Connors@Colorado.EDU Call for Registration and Participation: http://systems.cs.colorado.edu/ISCA2002/ * Archive: http://www.ele.uri.edu/tcca * To submit an email message to be distributed among TCCA members, send an email to tcca@ele.uri.edu * To subscribe/unsubscribe yourself from this mailing list: email to tcca-request@ele.uri.edu with message body: subscribe/unsubscribe ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Message Details~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Call for Papers ********** Computer Architecture Letters ********* ***** A refereed forum for technical letters ***** http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~tcca/ Computer Architecture Letters is a quarterly forum for fast publication of new, high-quality ideas in the form of short, critically refereed, technical "letters". Accepted letters are published immediately on our website and in the next available paper issue. Submissions are accepted on a continuing basis. The first issue has been mailed to TCCA members, and accepted papers can also be viewed online at the Letters website. All submissions must consist of original work. Submitted letters must be four pages or fewer, including all figures, tables, and references. Submissions exceeding this length will be returned without review. Papers should use 8.5in x 11in (21.55cm x 28cm) paper and the IEEE Computer Society transactions two-column format in 10-pt. font. Templates and full specifications are available on the Letters website. Due to the short format, we expect that publication in Letters should not preclude later publication in top-quality conferences or full-length journals. Please submit electronically in postscript or PDF, and ensure that the submitted file can be viewed in ghostview or Acrobat Reader 3.0. No hard copy is necessary. Authors should direct their submissions to Kevin Skadron at tcca@cs.virginia.edu. Each submission will be assigned to an appropriate member of the Editorial Board to manage the review process. Upon acceptance, authors will have one week to make revisions. A standard IEEE copyright release (also available on the Letters website) will also be required. For questions, please send e-mail to tcca@cs.virginia.edu. Submissions are welcomed on any topic in computer architecture, especially but not limited to: - Microprocessor and multiprocessor systems - Microarchitecture and ILP processors - Workload characterization - Performance evaluation and simulation techniques - Compiler-hardware and operating system-hardware interactions - Interconnect architectures - Memory and cache systems - Power and thermal issues at the architecture level - I/O architectures and techniques - Independent validation of previously published results - Analysis of unsuccessful techniques - Network and embedded-systems processors - Real-time and high-availability architectures - Reconfigurable systems Computer Architecture Letters is published by the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Computer Architecture Editor-in-Chief Yale N.
