HEART2024:
International Symposium on
Highly Efficient Accelerators and Reconfigurable Technologies
June 19-21, 2024 @ Faculty of Engineering of the University of
Porto (FEUP), Porto, Portugal (in-person symposium)
https://www.fe.up.pt/heart2024
/****************************************************************/
HEART2024 is a forum to present and discuss new research on all
aspects of accelerator technologies that improve the performance, power- or
energy-efficiency of computing systems. This year, the conference will be
held in Porto, Portugal (Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto –
FEUP, Campus) in an in-person format. The submission deadline is the
following, and as in previous years, accepted papers will be published by the
ACM International Conference Proceedings Series (ICPS) and will appear in the
ACM digital library.

Main Research Track
Following HEART tradition, HEART’2024 will continue to focus on
high efficiency as a cross-cutting issue and seeks contributions for the main
research track in, but not limited to, the following areas:
Architectures for Efficient Acceleration
– Novel systems/platforms based on FPGA, GPU, and other devices
– Heterogeneous processor architectures and systems for
high-performance and/or low-power
– Domain-specific architectures
Design Methods and Tools for Efficient Acceleration
– Programming paradigms, languages, and frameworks
– High-level synthesis and compilers
– Runtime methodologies for heterogeneous systems
– Performance evaluation and analysis
Applications and Systems
– Application examples that benefit from efficient acceleration to
a great extent
– Complete systems demonstrating increased energy efficiency
and/or performance
– Comparisons between accelerator technologies
Ph.D. Forum
The Ph.D. Forum is intended as a platform for Ph.D. students
working in areas relevant to HEART’2024 to interact with peers and experienced
researchers.
The form of Ph.D. forum will consist of pitch and poster
presentations.
Submission Guidelines
HEART’2024 adopts a double-blind review process; authors should
not identify themselves, so author names, affiliations, e-mail addresses, and
self-references should be blanked out.
Regular papers: Prospective authors are invited to submit original
contributions as single-column, 12-page papers (not counting references) to be
considered regular papers.
Ph.D. Forum papers: Ph.D. students working in areas relevant to
HEART’2024 are solicited to submit single-column, 4-page extended abstracts
(not counting references) to be considered as Ph.D. Forum papers comprising a
summary of their research findings, work in progress, and/or planned research.
The Ph.D. student should be the first author; thesis advisors may be
co-authors. The technical program committee will review submissions to ensure
quality and relevance.
All contributions (regular papers and Ph.D. Forum papers) must be
submitted electronically in PDF format according to the ACM Primary Article
Templates as follows. Please check the following ACM page, especially “2.
The Workflow and Templates”, for more information.
– Submitting Articles to ACM: https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions
– Word template: https://www.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/taps/acm_submission_template.docx
– LaTeX template: https://portalparts.acm.org/hippo/latex_templates/acmart-primary.zip
– Overleaf template: https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/acm-conference-proceedings-primary-article-template/wbvnghjbzwpc
Each accepted paper MUST have at least one exclusive associated
regular registration for the manuscript to be included and published in the
proceedings. Authors are also expected to present their paper(s) at the
HEART2024 symposium.
