Multi-Core and Many-Core systems for EMbedded Computing (MC)3
Special session in PDP 2016
Crete, Greece
17-19 Feb. 2016
This special session addresses all aspects of multi-core and many-core embedded
systems design. It presents new ideas in the multi-core field such as theory
and modeling, scalable and fault tolerant design approaches and frameworks,
algorithms, software, tools and applications, analysis and comparison, design
techniques and emerging implementations.

The proceedings of the special session will be published together with the
proceedings of PDP 2016 by the IEEE Computer Society, which are available
worldwide through the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. An extended version of the
best papers of the MC3 be invited to submit extended article versions to one of
the ISI-indexed high-quality journals.

Authors are invited to submit high quality papers representing original work
from both the academia and industry in (but not limited to) the following
topics:
– Design space exploration and design methodology for embedded multi-core and
many-core systems
– Specification and Formal modeling of embedded multi-core and many-core systems
– Multi-core/many-core embedded system design challenges
– Parallel programming and software for embedded multi- and many-core systems
– Memory management
– 3D architectures, integration and synthesis for embedded multi-core and many-
core systems
– On-chip communication architectures and networks-on-chip for embedded systems
– Heterogeneous multi-core and many-core architectures
– Hardware/software co-design
– Simulation, validation and verification
– Test and Fault Tolerance
– QoS management and performance analysis
– Multi-core and many-core cyber-physical systems
– Programming languages and compilers
– Thermal-, energy-, and power-aware architectures
– Monitoring and reconfiguration
– System prototyping
– Industrial practices and case studies
