CGO-2007 March 11-14, 2007 San Jose, California (co-located with PPoPP'07)

Welcome to the website for the 2007 International Symposium on Code Generation and Optimization. CGO was held March 11-14, 2007 in San Jose, California.

The conference is now over. Here are the best paper/presentation winners:

• Best paper: On the Complexity of Register Coalescing, Florent Bouchez, Alain Darte, and Fabrice Rastello (LIP UMR CNRS-ENS Lyon-UCB Lyon-Inria)
• Best student presentation: Vijay Janapa Reddi for Persistent Code Caching: Exploiting Code Reuse across Executions and Applications, Vijay Janapa Reddi (Harvard University), Dan Connors (University of Colorado at Boulder), Robert Cohn (Intel), and Michael D. Smith (Harvard University)

The International Symposium on Code Generation and Optimization (CGO) provides a premier venue to bring together researchers and practitioners working on feedback-directed optimization and back-end compilation techniques. The conference covers optimization for parallelism, performance, power, and security, where that optimization occurs in the mapping from an input (including APIs, high-level languages, byte codes such as .NET or Java, or ISAs) to a similar or lower-level target machine representation. Papers are solicited in areas that support such mapping and optimization:

• Compilers, back-end code generators, translators, and binary optimization tools and techniques that may be static, dynamic, adaptive, or continuous
• Profiling and feedback-directed methodologies
• Innovative analysis, transformation, and optimization techniques
• Intermediate representations which enable more powerful or efficient optimization
• Vertical integration of language features, representations, optimizations, and runtime support for parallelism (including support for transactional semantics, efficient message passing, and dynamic thread creation)
• Thread extraction and thread-level speculation, especially for multi-core systems
• Phase detection and analysis techniques
• Mechanisms and optimization techniques supporting the efficient implementation of security protection models, reliability and energy efficiency
• Traditional compiler optimizations
• Hardware mechanisms and systems that implement or assist in any of the above areas
• Experiences with real dynamic optimization and compilation systems, particularly with large, complex applications
• Explorations of trade-offs concerning when (static/dynamic) and where (software/hardware) to optimize
• Particularly novel ideas of interest to this community
