Join the Future of Computing

Description

Applied Reconfigurable Computing focuses on the use of reconfigurable hardware, such as field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), to accelerate and optimize various computational tasks and applications. It involves designing and implementing hardware configurations that can be dynamically adapted to specific workloads, improving performance and efficiency in a wide range of applications. The 20 th edition of the symposium aims to bring together researchers and practitioners of reconfigurable computing with an emphasis on practical applications of this promising technology.

 

The ARC’2024 proceedings will be published as a volume in Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series and will also be available through the SpringerLink online service.
