Call for Papers<br>
Workshop on The Influence of I/O on Microprocessor Architecture<br>
(IOM-2009) Co-located with HPCA-15 in Raleigh, North Carolina - February<br>
14-18, 2009.<br>
<br>
Increasing dependency of applications on I/O, emergence of new I/O<br>
technologies and integration lead us to believe that I/O will have a<br>
profound influence on future microprocessor architecture.<br>
The workshop solicits original papers on completed work, future<br>
directions, position papers, and/or work-in progress papers in the<br>
following areas. We encourage all to submit papers that bring out new<br>
and interesting approaches even if they are in early stages of<br>
development. The main goal is to have leading researchers in academia<br>
and industry to meet and put their ideas on the table.<br>
<br>
- Historical perspectives on how I/O subsystems have evolved<br>
- Evaluation of existing I/O subsystems and implications<br>
- Microprocessor core/cache architecture enhancements for<br>
efficient I/O processing, I/O related data movement and<br>
power management<br>
- Relationships between typical programmable cores,<br>
accelerators and I/O (tightly coupled communications and<br>
computational accelerators)<br>
- Software-Hardware partitioning of I/O processing<br>
- Influence of I/O subsystem virtualization<br>
- Architectural trade-offs when integrating various forms of I/O<br>
(wireless or wired networking, storage, USB and high<br>
performance interconnects)<br>
- Integration styles - monolithic integration of existing discrete<br>
designs or infusion of I/O into microprocessor cores<br>
- Measurement, modeling and simulation paradigms to improve<br>
the evaluation of processor-I/O interaction<br>

Submission Instructions<br>
The document format of your submission should be in the same format used<br>
for the HPCA conference. All submissions must be in PDF format and are<br>
strictly limited to 10 pages. Shorter papers that clearly articulate a<br>
position or set a fundamental direction are welcome. Please see workshop<br>
website for further instructions.</p>
