The workshop will consist of four series of lectures, presented by the following noted researchers.
 

Graham Birtwistle	Leeds University, UK	Specification, Design and Verification of an asynchronous  microprocessor
Al Davis	University of Utah, USA	Parallel computer architectures
John Gray	Xilinx, USA	Reconfigurable engines, Biocomputing, Entrepreneurial opportunities
Robert Suaya	Mentor Graphics Corp., France	Deep Submicron Analysis
John Wawrzynek	University of California at Berkeley, USA	Reconfigurable computing, Neuromorphic Engineering
Mario Munich	Caltech, USA	Computer Vision, Microelectronic Extensions

 

The cost of attendance (for non speakers) is $500 (US) which includes full shared accommodation and meals for the four and a half days at Plaza Hotel Rosario, xeroxing charges, excursions and Banquet.

The schedule for the workshop involves three talks on each of four mornings, and one talk on each of three evenings. The idea, adopted from previous successful workshops is to maximize the opportunities to talk to your favorite lecturer at breakfast, attend lectures in the morning and evening, enjoy join afternoon walks, have dinner with him in the evening. You thus have ample opportunity to make or reinforce varied personal contacts in the field as well as learn current research thrusts.

Notes:

• The workshop attendance will be limited to about 30 people. To avoid disappointment, register your interest with the local organizer (Maria Schiavon) or Mario Munich in CA as soon as possible.
• Due to space restrictions at the hotel, people will have to share rooms. When registering, indicate if there is anyone you would like to share with.
• When registering, make your check or money order in US dollars or Argentine Pesos (The exchange is 1:1) out to Fundacion Universidad Nacional de Rosario and send it to the local organizer (Maria Isabel Schiavon).

When registering, let the local organizer know if you have any special diet (e.g., vegetarian or kosher), and if for any reason you will not be staying for the whole workshop.
