General Information
The International Conference on Hardware-Software Codesign and System Synthesis is the premier event in design of embedded systems hardware, software and tools. The conference proudly continues the tradition of being a high-quality forum for active discussion on current and innovative topics. The program will bring together the latest in academic and industrial research and development. High-quality original papers will be accepted for oral presentation followed by interactive poster sessions. Selected papers from the conference proceedings will be targeted for journal publication.
Areas of Interest
The Conference invites papers on all aspects of the design and architecture of embedded computing systems, from application specific to heterogeneous systems, from custom to FPGA implementations, from handheld to high-performance systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- High-level, architectural and system-level synthesis
Specification and refinement, design representation, synthesis, partitioning, estimation, design space exploration
- Hardware-software co-design
Co-design methodologies, interaction
between architecture and software design, HW/SW partitioning, design space exploration, HW/SW interface.
- Specification languages and models
