Preface
The 31st International Conference on Computer Architecture (ARCS 2018) was hosted
at the Technische Universit
ät Braunschweig, Braunschweig, Germany, April 9–12,
2018. It was organized by the special interest group on
“Architecture of Computing
Systems
” of the GI (Gesellschaft für Informatik e. V.) and ITG (Informationstechnische
Gesellschaft im VDE).
With a tradition of 31 annual editions, ARCS has always been a conference
attracting leading-edge research outcomes in computer architecture and operating
systems, including a wide spectrum of topics ranging from embedded and real-time
systems all the way to large-scale and parallel systems. ARCS provides a holistic view
of computer architecture as it covers both hardware design aspects as well as a wide
range of software techniques required to exploit and build new hardware systems
ef
ficiently. ARCS is also a platform covering new emerging and cross-cutting topics,
such as autonomous and ubiquitous systems, recon
figurable computing and accelera-
tion, neural networks, and AI as well as outlooks on future topics like post-Moore
architectures and organic computing. The focus of ARCS 2018 was on architectures for
robotics, autonomous vehicles, and automation systems. With this, ARCS is re
flecting
the large interest in intelligent systems that are currently emerging and that have
disruptive character across the entire research and industry landscape.
ARCS 2018 attracted 53 submissions from authors in 17 countries. With 14 authors,
India had more authors submitting papers than the UK (13), China (12), Japan (9), and
France (9). Each paper was reviewed by a diverse and dedicated Program Committee
providing a total of 199 reviews. The Program Committee selected 23 submissions to
be presented at ARCS and published in the proceedings, which corresponds to a 43%
paper acceptance rate. The accepted papers were presented in eight sessions: Embedded
Systems (3 papers), Multicore Systems (2 papers), Analysis and Optimization (2
papers), On-Chip and Off-Chip Networks (4 papers), Memory Models and Systems (4
papers), Energy Ef
ficient Systems (3 papers), Partial Reconfiguration (3 papers) as well
as a session on Large Scale Computing (2 papers). The word
“cloud” in the beginning
of the preface was compiled from all the paper titles of the ARCS 2018 proceedings.
ARCS has a long tradition of hosting associated workshops. The following
five
workshops were held in conjunction with the main conference this year:
– VERFE: 14th Workshop on Dependability and Fault Tolerance
– PASA: 13th Workshop on Parallel Systems and Algorithms
– FORMUS

IC Workshop
– SAOS: 6th International Workshop on Self-Optimization in Autonomic and Organic
Computing Systems
– CompSpace: Second Workshop on Computer Architectures in Space
