The 25th IEEE International Conference on Application-specific Systems, Architectures and Processors 2014 takes place June 18-20, 2014 in Zurich, Switzerland. The 2014 edition of the conference is organized by IBM Research - Zurich and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH). 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. The 2014 conference will build upon traditional strengths in areas such as computer arithmetic, cryptography, compression, signal and image processing, network processing, reconfigurable computing, application-specific instruction-set processors, and hardware accelerators.
