Interact-13: Workshop on Interaction Between Compilers and Computer
Architecture

Held in conjunction with HPCA-15
Raleigh, North Carolina, February 15, 2009

Technical Program
Effective compilers allow more efficient execution of application
programs on a given computer architecture. On the other hand,
well-conceived architectural features can support more effective
compiler optimization techniques. Good interaction between compilers and
computer architectures is the key to successful design of highly
efficient and effective computer systems. This workshop is to promote
new ideas and present recent developments in compiler techniques and
computer architectures that enhance each others capabilities and
performance. Papers are solicited on any aspect of interaction between
compilers and architectures in the design of microprocessors,
multiprocessors, and other parallel computer systems.

Potential topics, not limited to:
+ Processor reliability enhancement
+ Processor reliability enhancement
+ Improved timing analysis and predictability
+ Secure, dependable computing
+ Managed and unmanaged run-time support
+ Dynamic compilation and optimization
+ Task synchronization and scheduling
+ System virtualization
+ Efficient I/O support
+ Parallelism enhancement and exploitation
+ Memory, cache, and register management
+ Multi-core software and compilation
+ Code optimization and generation
+ Low power architecture and software
+ Debugging, verification and validation
+ Processor variation interactions with software
+ Network on chips
