Publications

For those not familiar with the field of computer architecture, publication in top international conferences is the preferred means of disseminating research results in this area. Papers in proceedings of top conferences, often with acceptance rates below 20%, are more important than journals. The top computer architecture conferences are ISCA, MICRO, HPCA, and ASPLOS. Added together, the four conferences above publish only 120 to 160 papers per year. Due to their impact, these conferences are very well attended. Given their importance, papers published in the proceedings of these conferences are read and cited by active researchers in the area even if those researchers did not attend the conference.
