Scope
of Conference The NASA/ESA Conference on Adaptive Hardware and
Systems (AHS-2010) will be co-located with the 47th Design Automation
Conference (DAC 2010) and held June 15 - 18, 2010, The purpose of the conference is to bring together
leading researchers from the adaptive hardware and systems community to
exchange experiences and share new ideas in the field. The conference expands
the topics addressed by the precursor series of NASA/DoD
Conference on Evolvable Hardware, held between 1999 and 2005. With a broader
scope including a variety of hardware and system adaptation methods and
targeting more industry participation, the NASA/ESA series started with the
AHS 2006 conference held in Istanbul, Turkey, and continued annually with AHS
2007 conference held in Edinburgh, UK, AHS 2008 conference held in Noordwijk, The Netherlands, and AHS 2009 conference held
in San Francisco, USA. Adaptation reflects the capability of a system to
maintain or improve its performance in the context of internal or external
changes, such as uncertainties and variations during fabrication, faults and
degradations, modifications in the operational environment, incidental or
intentional interference, different users and preferences, modifications of
standards and requirements, trade-offs between performance and resources. We welcome original contributions in the areas of
hardware and software adaptation at different system levels, including novel
tools and algorithms for adaptive system design (e.g. adaptation-aware
compilers), novel applications of adaptive hardware and systems (e.g.
intelligent agent machines), and novel enabling hardware
technologies for such systems (e.g. instrumentation platforms, novel
reconfigurable and multi-core architectures). We particularly welcome novel
contributions in the areas of adaptive data transmission for
telecommunications (e.g. adapting to power limitations, changing environment, and
interferences), novel data compression techniques (e.g. new image compression
techniques for space applications), and novel software/hardware architectures
for unmanned autonomous vehicles (e.g. adapting to extreme environments and
mission unknowns). While the focus of this conference is on
communications and space applications, we welcome original contributions in
other application areas such as consumer, medical, defence and security, as
the techniques employed can be disseminated across the board. In view of the above, the topics to be covered in
this conference include, but are not limited to: Built-in tuneable structures and automated tuning Automatic/self-calibration Built-in self-test and self-repair Design and test of integrated system in nano scale On-chip learning and adaptation Adaptive circuits and configurable IP cores Reconfigurable and morphable
hardware Reconfigurable hardware for space applications Embryonic hardware, morphogenesis Evolvable hardware Design for adaptive systems Adaptive embedded system Adaptive control circuits and adaptive flight
hardware Search and optimization algorithms for adaptive
hardware Hardware implementations of optimization engines Learning and evolutionary algorithms for adaptive
hardware Algorithms for exploring design space of adaptive
hardware Adaptive computing and run-time reconfiguration Adaptation with hardware in the loop Adaptive optics Adaptive antennas Adaptive sensing Adaptive MEM/NEMS devices Adaptive interfaces Hardware for adaptive signal processing Adaptive medical and prosthetic devices Adaptive wired and wireless networks Adaptive hardware/software for autonomous systems Adaptive flight hardware Space applications Communications applications MEMS/NEMS energy scavenging devices Emerging technologies-Nanoelectronics Reconfigurable computing incl. multi core
architectures Adaptive wireless for space Secure data and information systems Adaptive image and data compression Instrumentation platforms Prospective authors are invited to submit the
electronic version of their full paper (i.e. PS, PDF, MSWord)
on the conference web site. Papers are limited to 8 pages and should be
submitted in single-spaced, double column, 10 point type on a 8.5" X 11" or equivalent paper with 1"
margins on all sides. Each submission should contain the following items: (1)
title of paper, (2) author name(s), (3) first author physical address, (4)
first author e-mail address, (5) first author phone number, (6) a maximum 200
words abstract (7) the text of the paper, and (8) references. Accepted papers
will be published in the conference proceedings published by IEEE Computer
Society Conference Publishing Services (CPS) and made available through the
IEEE Xplore. |
