ACACES 2014
Date: Jul 13, 2014 1:00 am – Jul 19, 2014 10:00 am
Location: Fiuggi, Italy
Tenth International Summer School on
Advanced Computer Architecture and Compilation for High-Performance and Embedded Systems
Fiuggi, Italy
Sunday July 13 - Saturday July 19, 2014
Organized by the HiPEAC Network of Excellence sponsored by the 7th European framework programmehttp://www.hipeac.net/summerschool
The ACACES Summer School is a one week summer school for computer architects and tool builders working in the field of high performance computer architecture, compilation and embedded systems. The school aims at the dissemination of advanced scientific knowledge and the promotion of international contacts among scientists from academia and industry.
A distinguishing feature of this Summer School is its broad scope ranging from low level technological issues to advanced compilation techniques. In the design of modern computer systems one has to be knowledgeable about architecture as well as about the quality of the code, and how to improve it. This summer school offers the ideal mix of the two worlds, both at the entry level and at the most advanced level.
The ACACES Summer School is organized by the HiPEAC Network of Excellence (http://www.HiPEAC.net), but it is open to everybody. However, previous training and/or experience in computer science as well as a background in computer architecture or compilation is indispensable.
The Summer School will take place in Fiuggi, a small town near Rome, Italy.
Students and lecturers will be accommodated in private hotel rooms with standard hotel accommodation. There will be lots of opportunities for interaction among the participants, both in and out of the classrooms, during the meals, at the bar or at the swimming pool, in the fitness room, in the spa and in the city. Long after-the-lecture discussions are one of the major assets of this summer school. You will remember this summer school for a long time.
