SPECIAL SESSION SCOPE
This special session addresses all aspects of monitoring and reconfiguration of parallel and distributed systems,such as theory and modeling, scalable design approach and framework, algorithms, analysis and comparison,design techniques and practical implementations.

Papers on any of the following and related topics can be submitted to this special session:
• Monitoring and reconfiguration for NoCs and SoCs
• Scalable monitoring architectures for multicore systems
• Low-power monitors and sensors circuits
• Reconfiguration algorithms
• Reconfigurable and fault tolerant monitoring approaches
• Monitoring techniques for FPGA based designs
• Reconfiguration for fault tolerance and diagnostics
• Analysis, design and implementation of monitoring communication
• Design space exploration and tradeoff analysis
• Applications demonstrating monitoring and/or reconfiguration implementation
• Methods for distributed parallel system monitoring and reconfiguration
• Monitoring and reconfiguration in Cyber physical systems
• Formal methods for modeling, design and verification of monitoring and reconfiguration

The Proceedings will be published by IEEE Conference Publishing Services (CPS), which are available worldwide through the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. An extended version of the best papers will be published in a special issue of the ISI-indexed “Microprocessors and Microsystems: Embedded Hardware Design” journal, printed by Elsevier Ltd.
