IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Code Generation and OptimizationCall for Student Research Competition (SRC)The ACM Student Research Competition (SRC) offers a unique forum forundergraduate and graduate students to present their original researchbefore a panel of judges and attendees at CGO. Participants must beundergraduates or graduate students pursuing an academic degree at thetime of initial submission. Participants must be current studentmembers of the ACM. The abstracts will be examined by a selectioncommittee and selected abstracts will be invited to present as postersat the conference. SRC poster submissions are, in addition, evaluatedby a jury during the poster session at the conference. The best threeposters are then invited to give a short presentation (10 minutes + 5minutes questions) on the next day. Based on the submitted abstract,the poster, and the presentation, the winner of CGO’s Student ResearchCompetition will be selected, who will receive an award. In additionthe winner will be invited to participate in the grand 2017 ACM SRCcompetition. Further information on the ACM SRC is available at:src.acm.orgSubmission InformationExtended abstracts of up to 500 words should be submitted by email toramesh.v.peri@intel.com before November 25, 2016. All submissions willbe reviewed by a selection committee. Notifications will be sent out byDecember 2, 2016. Selected submissions will have their abstractincluded in the CGO 2017 proceedings and will be invited to CGO toparticipate in the ACM SRC competition.TimelineSubmission: November 25, 2016Notification: December 2, 2016Poster Session: February 6, 2017Best Student Poster Presentations: February 7, 2017ACM SRC Award (SRC): February 8, 2017Submission TopicsAs in previous years, CGO will host a Student Research Competition(SRC) session. Submissions in the form of an extended abstract (detailsbelow) are solicited in any topics relevant to the main conference,including:- Code Generation, Translation, Transformation, and Optimization forperformance, energy, virtualization, portability, security, orreliability concerns, and architectural support- Efficient execution of dynamically typed and higher-level languages- Optimization and code generation for emerging programming models,platforms, domain-specific languages- Dynamic/static, profile-guided, feedback-directed, and machinelearning based optimization- Static, Dynamic, and Hybrid Analysis for performance, energy, memorylocality, throughput or latency, security, reliability, or functionaldebugging- Program characterization methods- Efficient profiling and instrumentation techniques; architecturalsupport- Novel and efficient tools- Compiler design, practice and experience- Compiler abstraction and intermediate representations- Vertical integration of language features, representations,optimizations, and runtime support for parallelism- Solutions that involve cross-layer (HW/OS/VM/SW) design andintegration- Deployed dynamic/static compiler and runtime systems for generalpurpose, embedded system and Cloud/HPC platforms- Parallelism, heterogeneity, and reconfigurable architectures- Optimizations for heterogeneous or specialized targets, GPUs, SoCs,CGRA- Compiler-support for vectorization, thread extraction, taskscheduling, speculation, transaction, memory management, datadistribution and synchronizationSelection CommitteeRamesh Peri (Chair, Intel Corporation)Naveen Kumar (Google)Evelyn Duesterwald (IBM)Fabrice Rastello (INRIA)Simone Campanoni (Northwestern University)
