CAMS25 – The 3rd Workshop on Computer Architecture Modeling and Simulation

held in conjunction with IEEE/ACM MICRO25.
Seoul, Korea.
October 18/19, 2025

The goal of the workshop is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas and discuss the latest advances in the field of computer architecture modeling and simulation. The focus on modeling and simulation techniques is of vital importance to the ongoing advancements in microarchitecture, as these methods are essential tools for improving system performance, efficiency, and reliability.

The workshop will cover various aspects of computer architecture modeling and simulation, including but not limited to:

 * Simulator Development: Advances in design, theory, implementation, and integration of simulators.

 * Performance Modeling: Strategies for prediction, validation, and the impact of architectural features.

 * Power Modeling and Simulation: Methods for power-efficient design and power-performance trade-offs.

 * Tools and Studies Survey: Review and compare existing simulation tools and applications.

 * Scalable Simulation Techniques: Approaches for improving simulation scalability and efficiency.

 * Modeling and Simulation for Unconventional Architectures: Exploration of unique challenges and approaches for emerging and unconventional architectures.

 * Hardware-in-the-loop Simulation: Performance modeling and simulator validation with hardware.

 * Modeling for Machine Learning (Sim4AI): Architectural considerations and models for hardware accelerators.

 * Validation Techniques: Approaches for validating the accuracy of simulation models.

 * Human-centered simulation methods: Analysis, visualization, and monitoring methods.

The workshop invites submissions of original work in the form of full papers (up to 6 pages, reference not included) covering all aspects of computer architecture modeling and simulation. Submissions will be peer-reviewed, and accepted papers will be included in the workshop proceedings.

The talks will announce new simulators or new releases of existing simulators, highlighting their new features and improvements. We solicit talks from a broader community. Please submit a one-page abstract that includes the simulator, the new version, the new features you wish to present, and the website for your tool (if it exists). The selection will be made based on the relevance to the workshop topics, decided by the workshop chairs.
