ASYNC2016 - 22nd IEEE International Symposium on Asynchronous Circuits and Systems

Porto Alegre, Brazil - May 8 to 11, 2016

Call for Papers

Regular Papers

Authors are invited to submit papers on any aspect of synchronous design topics ranging from design, synthesis, and test, to asynchronous applications in system-level integration and emerging computing technologies. Topics of interest include:

• Mixed-timed circuits, GALS systems, Networks-on-Chip, and multi-chip interconnects;
• Elastic and latency-tolerant synchronous design;
• Asynchronous pipelines, architectures, CPUs, and memories;
• Asynchronous ultra-low power systems, energy harvesting, and mixed-signal/analogue;
• Asynchronous logic in power-constrained applications;
• Asynchronous techniques for 3D integration;
• Asynchrony in emerging technologies, including bio, neural, nano, and quantum computing;
• CAD tools for asynchronous design, synthesis, analysis, and optimization;
• Formal methods for verification and performance/power analysis;
• Test, security, and fault tolerance;
• Asynchronous variability-tolerant design and design for manufacturing;
• Circuit designs, case studies, comparisons, and applications.

Submissions must report original scientific work, in 6-8 pages IEEE double-column conference format, with author information concealed. Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE digital library IEEEXplore and symposium proceedings.

Industrial Papers

ASYNC 2016 will include a special industrial workshop with papers and tutorials from industry and research on the state-of-the-art application of asynchronous designs to both existing and emerging technologies. The topics are specifically targeted at industry and include:

• Synchronizers and clock domain crossing techniques;
• Techniques for combining asynchronous and clocked designs;
• CAD tools for integrating asynchronous circuits with clocked designs;
• Circuit designs, case studies, comparisons, and applications.

We solicit 1-page to 2-page submissions for the workshop, IEEE double-column conference format. These papers will go through a separate light-weight review process. Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE digital library IEEEXplore and symposium proceedings.

A 1-day registration will be offered for the day of this industrial workshop.

Fresh Ideas Workshop / Tools and Demos

ASYNC2016 will accommodate a special workshop to present “fresh ideas” in asynchronous design, that are not yet ready for publication. We solicit 1-to-2-page submissions for the workshop, which will go through a separate light-weight review process. Accepted submissions will be assembled in a binder and handed out at the workshop.

We also solicit tools and other demos for presentation at the conference.
