____________________________________________________________________________ 


Authors are invited to submit papers describing recent advances on all
aspects of computer arithmetic, including, but not restricted to the
following topics:

* Foundations of number systems and arithmetic;
* Arithmetic processor design and implementation;
* Arithmetic algorithms and their analysis;
* Highly parallel arithmetic units and systems;
* New floating-point units and systems;
* Standards for number representation and arithmetic;
* Impact of high-level languages on arithmetic systems;
* Special function implementation;
* Low power arithmetic; and
* Applications of Computer Arithmetic to cryptography, DSP, data
  compression, computer graphics, etc.

pdf version of the complete paper should be submitted in electronic 
form, following the
instructions posted at the conference web site:

http://www.lirmm.fr/arith18/

no later than Oct. 1, 2006 at midnight, ECT.

The paper must be anonymous, with no author names, affiliations, 
acknowledgments, or obvious references. It should begin with a title, a 
short abstract, and a list of keywords, and its introduction should 
summarize the contributions of the paper at a level appropriate for a 
non-specialist reader.


Finally, a statement confirming that the paper has not been submitted
elsewhere must be sent by email to Peter Kornerup (kornerup@xxxxxxxxxxxx).

Acceptance will be notified in February 2007, and final camera-ready papers
will be due in March 2007. Conference proceedings will be available at the
Symposium.

A NOTE ON PAPER FORMATTING

Submissions should conform to the maximum length requirement for the
proceedings of the conference, eight pages, two columns, but for reviewing
should preferably be formatted in normal article style: about 20 pages,
12pt, single column, double spacing. This is just for a rough
estimation of length. Authors of papers exceeding 20 pages, 12 pt, single
column, double spacing, who think that their submission will fit the final
conference page limit, are kindly requested to check their manuscript
size using the formatting style found at

http://computer.org/author/transguide/transstylefiles.htm

The final submissions cannot exceed 10 pages (corresponding to 8+2 extra
charged pages). For Authors' convenience, and by courtesy of the IEEE
Computer Society, the formatting styles can also be found at the web site.
