<h2 class="featurette-heading">Call for <span class="text-muted">Papers</span></h2>
<!--<p class="lead">Call for papers will be available in January 2019.</p>-->
<p class="lead">
With the looming end of the “Moore’s Law” era, there is an emerging challenge to “<a href="http://www.nano.gov/grandchallenges">create a new type of computer that can proactively interpret and learn from data, solve unfamiliar problems using what it has learned, and operate with the energy efficiency of the human brain</a>."
</p>
<p class="lead">
Neuromorphic computing will play a major role in this challenge and has the potential to transform the way we use computers through new materials, new brain-inspired chips, greater understanding of neuroscience, and breakthroughs in machine understanding/intelligence. Neuromorphic computing systems have the potential to mimic the functionality of neural systems in the brain, which we believe will lead to more powerful and efficient computing paradigms. The goal of this conference is to bring together leading researchers in neuromorphic computing to present new research, develop new collaborations, and provide a forum to publish work in this area.
</p>
<h3 class="topics-header">Research papers are requested for topics on Neuromorphic Computing, speificially in four focus areas:
</h3>
<ol class="topics-list">
<li><b>Architectures, Models, and Emulation</b>
<ul>
<li>Network, neuron, and synapse models</li>
<li>Non-von Neumann computing architectures and models</li>
<li>Emerging devices and hardware implementations</li>
<li>Event or spike-based systems</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><b>Machine intelligence algorithms for programming or training neuromorphic devices</b>
<ul>
<li>Supervised and unsupervised learning methods</li>
<li>Biologically-inspired algorithms</li>
<li>Adaptations to existing algorithms for use on or with neuromorphic systems</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><b>Applications for and use-cases of neuromorphic systems</b>
<ul>
<li>Applications where neuromorphic systems have the potential to outperform state-of-the-art techniques.</li>
<li>Suggestions for benchmark tasks for neuromorphic computing</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><b>Supporting software and systems for neuromorphic systems</b>
<ul>
<li>Efficient simulation techniques for hardware and large-scale networks</li>
<li>Compilers and programming frameworks</li>
<li>Visualization tools</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<p>
<b>Note:</b> Submissions outside the scope of these areas, including from materials science and neuroscience,
will also be considered (especially for lightning talks and posters), although they are not the focus of this
conference.
</p>
<h3 class="topics-header">We are accepting submissions in the following forms:</h3>
<ol class="topics-list">
<li> <b>Full papers</b> (6-8 pages), which will be considered for full (20 minute) presentations. Full papers should present original research and will be included in the conference proceedings.
</li>
<li><b>Short papers</b> (3-4 pages), which will be considered for full presentations and/or lightning talks. Short papers can be position papers or present preliminary results and will be included in the conference proceedings.
<li> <b>Extended abstracts</b> (1 page) for lightning talks and/or poster presentations. Extended abstracts will not be included in the conference proceedings.
</li>
<li><b>Tutorial submissions</b> (2-3 pages) for 1-2 hour tutorial sessions. Tutorials should include a hands-on component for tutorial attendees to work on or interact with neuromorphic software or hardware. Tutorials should be led by no more than three facilitators. Unlike paper and abstract submissions, tutorial submissions should be submitted via email to Katie Schuman at schumancd [at] ornl.gov. </li>
<li><b>*NEW* Special session submissions</b> (2-3 pages) for 1-2 hour special sessions. Special sessions should include invited presentations on a specific topic. Special session submissions will not be included in the conference proceedings. Unlike paper and abstract submissions, special session submissions should be submitted via email to Katie Schuman at schumancd [at] ornl.gov.
</ol>

Select papers will be invited to submit extended versions for a special issue of the ACM Journal of Emerging Technologies (JETC).

The White House has announced a <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2015/10/15/nanotechnology-inspired-grand-challenge-future-computing">Nanotechnology-Inspired Grand Challenge for Future Computing</a>,
which seeks to create a new type of computer that can “proactively interpret and learn from data, solve unfamiliar problems using what it has learned, and operate with the energy efficiency of the human brain.” This grand challenge is meant to leverage and synergize three of our national research and development initiatives: National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI), National Strategic Computing Initiative (NSCI), and the BRAIN initiative.
</p>
<p class="lead">
We believe neuromorphic computing will play a major role in this new grand challenge, and has the potential to transform the way we use computers through new materials, new brain-inspired chips, greater understanding of neuroscience, and breakthroughs in machine understanding/intelligence. Neuromorphic computing systems have the potential to mimic the functionality of neural systems in the brain, which we believe will lead to more powerful and efficient computing paradigms. These new systems have the potential to help scientists pioneer new scientific discoveries, or to help intelligently analyze sensor data for improved cyber security or energy management.
</p>
<p class="lead">
The goal of this workshop is to define basic research challenges for neuromorphic computing research from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) perspective. Our focus is to define a 10-20 year roadmap for neuromorphic computing that leverages the strengths and capabilities of the DOE National Laboratory system.
</p>
<p class="lead">
We invite you to submit a two-page white paper to our upcoming Neuromorphic Computing workshop. White paper submission deadline is April 8, 2016.
</p>
<h3 class="topics-header">Research white papers are requested in three Neuromorphic Computing focused areas: </h3>
<ol class="topics-list">
<li>Architectures, Models, and Emulation, including network, neuron, and synapse models and efficient simulation techniques for large-scale networks.</li>
<li>Machine intelligence algorithms and methods for programming or training neuromorphic devices, including supervised and unsupervised learning methods and biologically-inspired algorithms. </li>
<li>Applications for and use-cases of neuromorphic systems, especially those where neuromorphic systems have the potential to outperform state-of-the-art techniques.</li>
</ol>
<p>
White paper Submissions must clearly identify the workshop attendee and include the following information: White paper Title, Name, Email, Organization, Focused Area (1–3, above) and Narrative (in Word or PDF format only). The submission is via the workshop website. Questions can be addressed to Dr. Thomas Potok, Dr. Catherine Schuman, Dr. Robert Patton, Dr. Todd Hylton, Dr. Helen Li, and Dr. Robinson Pino. Dr. Thomas Potok will serve as the General Workshop Chair. We look forward to your submission.
