IISWC-2005 October 6-8, 2005 Crowne Plaza Austin Hotel Austin, Texas

The meeting that began as Workshop on Workload Characterization (WWC) in 1998 is becoming a Symposium. New computer applications and programming paradigms are constantly emerging to complement new and improving technology. The design of next generation microprocessors and computer systems should be based on an understanding of today's emerging workloads. This 3-day symposium, sponsored by IEEE Computer Society and the Technical Committee on Computer Architecture, will focus on characterizing and understanding modern computer applications commercial and scientific computing.

Topics of Interest

Papers are solicited in all areas related to characterization of workloads  (system and/or application behavior) in a variety of environments. Topics of interest include (but not limited to):

• Workload characterization or related studies focusing on the following types of applications:
  • E-commerce, Web server, Database
  • Embedded, Mobile, Multimedia
  • Life Sciences, Drug Discovery
  • Java, Object-oriented
  • Learning and Discovery, Graphics
  • Multiprocessor
  • Scientific and technical
  • Security, Biometrics
  • Operating system intensive
  • Multi-threaded
• Effects of architectural features on workload behavior
• Machine independent characterization of workloads
• Memory and I/O access patterns
• Power and reliability issues related to workload
• Benchmark creation and validation
• Representative trace generation
