6th Career Workshop for Women and Minorities in Computer Architecture

In conjunction with the

53rd IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Microarchitecture (MICRO-53)

Date: October 17, 2020

Call for Posters:

The MICRO Career Workshop will bring together women and

under-represented minorities at different levels in academia, industry,

research, government and students to promote the recruitment, retention

and progression of women and under-represented groups with research

interests in computer architecture.

The workshop will highlight emerging and hot topics in computer

architecture, but also provide opportunities for cross-disciplinary

research, networking, and career advice and mentoring. The workshop will

contain a mix of technical presentations and panel sessions given by

academic and industry leaders as well as a special session to provide

mentoring for students as they get started in their careers.

The workshop will include a student research poster session, career

panels, advice on careers in academia, industry research, government, or

deciding to start your own company, and a mentoring session.

Keynotes and invited talks will cover the latest research trends in

computer architecture.

To encourage participation, we will reimburse workshop registration

for participants.
