rather than papers, and will encourage interaction with speakers. Design,
system performance, and implementation details as well as technology will be
covered, which relate to the following topics:

	* Microprocessors
	* Floating Point Engines
	* Graphics Engines
	* Embedded Controllers
	* I/O Processors
	* Special Purpose Processors
	* New Process Technology Methods
	* Performance Measures

Those interested in discussing the results of their work at the Symposium
should submit a presentation proposal to either of the Program Co-Chairs:
