The International Symposium on Code Generation and Optimization (CGO) provides a premier venue to bring together researchers and practitioners working on feedback-directed optimization and back-end compilation techniques. The conference covers static, dynamic, adaptive or continuous optimization. Original research contributions are solicited in areas including but not limited to the following:

â?¢ Compilers, back-end code generators, translators, and binary optimization tools
â?¢ Profiling and feedback-directed methodologies
â?¢ Intermediate representations to support optimization
â?¢ Thread extraction and thread-level speculation
â?¢ Techniques for optimizing for parallelism, especially for multi-core systems
â?¢ Power and energy efficiency optimizations
â?¢ Optimization techniques for security and reliability
â?¢ Optimizations for transactional memory
â?¢ Memory management, including data distribution and synchronization
â?¢ Program characterization and phase analysis techniques
â?¢ Interaction of optimizations with modern hardware
â?¢ Architectural and system support for optimizations
â?¢ Experiences with real compilation and optimization systems, particularly with large, complex applications
