The IEEE International Symposium on Field-Programmable Custom Computing Machines (FCCM) is the original and premier forum for presenting and discussing new research related to computing that exploits the unique features and capabilities of FPGAs and other reconfigurable hardware. Submissions are solicited on the following topics related to Field Programmable Custom Computing Machines (FCCMs) including, but not limited to:

Architectures

Novel reconfigurable architectures, including overlay architectures
Architectures for high performance and/or low power computing
Security assessment and enhancements for reconfigurable computing
Specialized memory systems including volatile, non-volatile, and hybrid memory subsystems
Emerging technologies with in-field reconfiguration abilities
Clusters, data centers, or large systems of reconfigurable devices
Heterogeneous programmable architectures

Abstractions, Programming Models, and Tools

Abstractions, programming models, interfaces, and runtimes, including virtualization
New languages and design frameworks for spatial or heterogeneous applications
High-level synthesis and designer productivity in general
Software-Defined-systems (e.g. radio, networks, frameworks for new domains)
Customizable soft processors systems

Reconfiguration

Run-time management of reconfigurable hardware
System resilience/fault tolerance for reconfigurable hardware
Evolvable, adaptable, or autonomous reconfigurable computing systems
Security assessment and enhancement of run-time reconfiguration

Applications

Data center or cluster with reconfigurable applications
New uses of run-time reconfiguration in applications-specific systems
Applications that utilize reconfigurable technology for performance and efficiency, and particularly submissions that make comparisons with other highly parallel architectures such as GPUs or DSPs
Novel use of state-of-the-art commercial FPGAs
