Call for Abstracts:
In the First Boston Area Architecture Workshop (BARC), we are trying to bring together computer architecture experts and wannabes in the Greater Boston area. Unlike other architecture conferences, we expect BARC to be informal with numerous 15- and/or 30-minute presentations, and long discussion breaks. We invite short abstracts (with maximum two pages) for consideration for presentation in BARC. As usual, elegant as well as preliminary solutions to architectural problems are welcome. Additionally, we strongly encourage people to submit abstracts on future problems we expect to encounter. Such presentations need not have any proposed solutions in the abstract. Authors can present work they have already published elsewhere or plan to publish in future. Please send your abstract (in plain text email or pdf) to barc2003@cag.lcs.mit.edu.

Topics of interest to this workshop include, but are not limited to: microarchitecture, multiprocessors, memory systems, I/O, networking, and performance evaluation techniques.
