CALL FOR PAPERS

It is our pleasure to invite you to participate in the 2008
International Conference on Reconfigurable Computing and FPGAs
(ReConFig?08), which will be held at Cancun, Mexico on
December 3-5, 2008. Cancun, a world class tourist resort, is located on
the Mexican Caribbean. Main attractions include fabulous beaches, sea
activities, ecotourism, and the nearby ancient Mayan city of
Chichen-Itza, a UNESCO World Heritage Centre and recently
named one of the new 7 wonders of the world.

Reconfigurable computing and FPGA technology have become major subjects
of research in computing and electrical engineering as they have been
identified as powerful alternatives for creating highly efficient
computing systems. Reconfigurable computing offers substantial
performance improvements when compared against traditional
processing architectures via custom design and reconfiguration
capabilities. Reconfiguration is characterized by the ability of
hardware architectures or devices to rapidly alter the functionalities
of its components and the interconnection between them as needed.
Existing theoretical models and algorithms combined with commercially
available devices, such as FPGAs, make Reconfigurable Computing a very
powerful computing paradigm.

As the fourth in a successful series, ReConFig?08 will provide a leading
edge forum for researchers and engineers from across the world to
present their latest research and to discuss future research and
applications. The conference seeks to promote the use of
reconfigurable computing and FPGA technology for research, education,
and applications, covering from hardware architectures and devices to
custom computers and high performance systems.

ReConFig?08 covers a broad spectrum of topics including, but not limited to:

* Models, methods, tools, and architectures for reconfigurable computing
* Compilation, simulation, debugging, synthesis, verification, and test
of reconfigurable systems
* Field programmable gate arrays and other reconfigurable technologies
* Evolvable hardware and dynamic reconfiguration
* Algorithms implemented on reconfigurable hardware
* Reconfigurable computing education
* Reconfigurable computing applications

In addition to the general session, submissions are invited for the
following tracks on reconfigurable computing applications.

* High Performance Reconfigurable Computing
* Bioinspired Reconfigurable Computing Systems
* Reconfigurable Computing for Data Security and Cryptography
* Reconfigurable Computing for DSP and Communications
* Self-adaptive Computing

Conference Proceedings will be edited by the IEEE Computer Society Press
and will appear at the IEEE Digital Library. Authors of selected papers
will be invited to submit an extended version for a Special Issue of the
International Journal of Reconfigurable Computing (IJRC). Instructions
for electronic submission and paper formatting are available in the
conference web page.

Important dates:
* Paper Submission: July 18, 2008
* Acceptance Notification: September 1, 2008
* Camera-Ready Papers: September 22, 2008
* Conference: December 3-5, 2008
