Technical scope

Evolutions in classic computer architecture

  • Core microarchitecture including prediction, prefetching, ILP and MLP
  • Manycore and multicore architecture, cache hierarchy optimisation and coherency
  • Heterogeneous CPU architectures
  • Memory systems architecture including PIM and disaggregated memory
  • Address translation for large memory applications
  • Large-scale computing systems

Software, runtime, compiler and codesign tools

  • Hardware/software co-design
  • Compile-time and dynamic analysis
  • Performance modelling and simulation
  • Correctness: verification, model-checking, test generation

Application or Domain-specific computer architectures

  • GPU architectures

  • AI accelerator interconnects

Novel computing technologies

  • Non-von Neumann architecture: optical computing, quantum computing and neuromorphic computing

We are broadly interested in general improvements to architecture and systems in any of the above areas, whether in performance, security, integrity, energy-efficiency, fault tolerance and reliability, quality of service, or other areas.

We’re upgrading our systems, and this includes changes to our customer and member account log in, MyIET. It’s part of our big picture plan to deliver a great experience for you and our wider engineering community.

Whilst most of our websites remain available for browsing, it will not be possible to log in to purchase products or access services from Thursday, 17 April to Wednesday, 30 April 2025. Our Member Relations team is here to help and for many of our services, including processing payments or orders, we’ll be able to support you over the phone on +44 (0)1438 765678 or email via membership@theiet.org.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.
