The 36th IEEE International Conference on Application-specific Systems, Architectures, and Processors (ASAP 2025) is organized by Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, BC, Canada, July 28-30, 2025.

The history of the event traces back to the International Workshop on Systolic Arrays, organized in 1986 in Oxford, UK. It later developed into the International Conference on Application Specific Array Processors. With its current title, it was organized for the first time in Chicago, USA in 1996. Since then it has alternated between Europe and North-America. The conference will cover the theory and practice of application-specific systems, architectures, and processors.

For a quick preview of ASAP 2025, we will have a variety of talks across 1) LLMs, Transformers, and Accelerators, 2) Scalable Systems and Secure Acceleration, 3) RISC-V and Custom Architectures, and 4) Design Exploration and Emerging Hardware. Besides regular paper talks, we will have two exciting keynotes, and a few invited sessions on special topics such as 1) Reconfigurable Edge Computing, 2) Architectures for Sustainable Security, and 3) Custom Computing in Canada. One special event this year is a retrospective review of most impactful ASAP papers in the past decades. In addition, we are also planning for a couple of sponsor workshops and/or tutorials, as well as lots of interesting poster presentations.

Prof. Wayne Luk, Imperial College London

Keynote 2: For ML and With ML: The New Normal in Hardware Design
