[Hpcresilience] Call for Participation - SELSE 2013 - March 26-27, 2013 - Stanford University

[Robinson, William H]

Workshop on Silicon Errors in Logic - System Effects (SELSE 2013)
March 26-27, 2013 - Stanford University
Website: http://softerrors.info/selse/

Important dates:

    Extended abstract submission: December 14, 2012
    Authors notification: February 2, 2013
    Camera-ready submission: March 4, 2013

The growing complexity and shrinking geometries of modern device technologies are making high-
density, low-voltage devices increasingly susceptible to the influences of electrical noise, process
variation, transistor aging, and the effects of natural radiation. The system-level impact of these errors can
be far-reaching. Growing concern about intermittent errors, unstable storage cells, and the effects of aging
are influencing system design. This workshop provides a forum for discussing current research and
practice in system-level error management. Participants from industry and academia explore both current
technologies and future research directions (including nanotechnology). SELSE is soliciting papers that
address the system-level effects of errors from a variety of perspectives: architectural, logical, circuit-
level, and semiconductor processes. Case studies are also solicited.

Key areas of interest are (but not limited to):
* Technology trends and the impact on error rates.
* New error mitigation techniques.
* Characterizing the overhead and design complexity of error mitigation techniques.
* Case studies describing the engineering tradeoffs necessary to decide what mitigation technique to
   apply.
* Experimental data.
* System-level models: derating factors and validation of error models.
* Error handling protocols (higher-level protocols for robust system design).

Authors are requested to submit extended abstracts for review before December 14, 2012. Extended
abstracts will be considered for both oral and poster presentation. All accepted submissions are included
in the workshop proceedings. Authors will be notified of paper outcome by February 2, 2013. Camera-
ready papers are due on March 4, 2013.

Additional information and guidelines for submission are available at www.selse.org<http://www.selse.org>. Submissions should
be PDF or Microsoft Word files in IEEE format that do not exceed four printed pages. Camera-ready
papers can be up to six pages in length in IEEE format. Papers are not made available through IEEE and
authors retain the copyright of their work. Authors may optionally choose to make their final papers
available online through the SELSE webpage.
