Demand for high performance embedded computing and increases in complexity
of embedded software require leveraging diverse architecture, microarchitecture
and compiler research. Application-specific solutions are needed in embedded
areas, such as digital audio/video, imaging, game consoles, graphics, mobile
and web appliances, and automotive systems. There are new challenges for embedded
systems, such as time-to-market, cost, code size, weight, power, and real-time
behavior.
The CASES conference provides a forum for emerging technology in embedded
computing systems, with an emphasis on compilers and architectures for embedded
systems. CASES is a common forum for researchers with an interest in embedded
systems to reach across vertically integrated communities and to promote synergies.
As evident from the past CASES meetings, several emerging applications are
critically dependent on these interactions for their sustained growth and
evolution.
This year, the seventh in the CASES series, the conference will focus
on the complexity of system-level design and its associated challenges and
requirements for compilers and architectures.

THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS Monday May 10, 2004. There is
an automatic one-week extension for late papers. There will be no other extensions.
Please submit one electronic copy of the paper in PDF format, using our website.
Notification of acceptance will occur by June 28, 2004.
Papers submissions should
contain significant novel ideas and technical results, and should represent
original work not previously published nor currently being considered for
publication in other forums.
Submission Instructions
Papers
should be submitted electronically through the conference web site, in PDF
format. Submissions should be no more than 6000 words and 22 double spaced
pages, with 1 inch margins and 11 pt font or larger. The paper must be single-column. Include a 200 word single spaced
abstract in the first page of the paper.
Please make sure you paper prints satisfactorily on 8.5"x11" paper, this is especially important from countries where A4 paper is standard.
Authors may choose whether they would
like to expose their identity to the reviewers, in which case authors' affiliations
should also be included on the first page.
Submissions not adhering to these guidelines may be outright rejected at the discretion of the program chairs.
If you have any paper submission problem, please contact our paper submission chair
Kevin Fan via Email [email protected].
Invitation Letter 
For international travelers who require Visa, a request for invitation letter should be sent to Prof. Scott Mahlke via Email [email protected]. Your request must include the following information: Your first name, last name, title, affiliation, research area, postal address, email address, phone number, and fax number. Also a briefly statement about the relationship with the conference is required. If you have already registered, please provide us your registration information.
Note that for the author of a paper in CASES, acceptance letter sent earlier by email can be used as an invitation letter.
