Like its predecessors, ASPLOS 2016 invites papers on ground-breaking
research at the intersection of at least two ASPLOS disciplines:
architecture, programming languages, operating systems, and related
areas. Non-traditional topics are especially encouraged. The
importance of cross-cutting research continues to grow as we grapple
with the end of Dennard scaling, the explosion of big data, scales
ranging from ultra-low power wearable devices to exascale parallel and
cloud computers, the need for sustainability, and increasingly
human-centered applications. ASPLOS embraces systems research that
directly targets these new problems in innovative ways. The research
may target diverse goals such as performance, energy and thermal
efficiency, resiliency, security, and sustainability. The review
process will be sensitive to the challenges of multidisciplinary work
in emerging areas.
