6th IEEE International Symposium on Embedded Multicore SoCs
The University of Aizu, Aizu-Wakamatsu, Japan
September 21-23, 2011
------------------------------------------------------------

The International Symposium on Embedded Multicore Systems-on-chip (MCSoC-11) aims at providing the world's premier forum of leading researchers in the embedded multicore SoCs software, tools and applications design areas for Academia and industries. Prospective authors are invited to submit paper of their works. Submission of a paper implies that at least one of the authors will have a full registration to the symposium upon acceptance of the paper.
