The RISC-V Foundation has issued a call for speakers ahead of the RISC-V Workshop Zurich, scheduled for mid-June 2019, with a submission deadline of the 28th of February.
Hosted by the non-profit RISC-V Foundation in partnership with Informa’s Knowledge & Networking Division, KNect365, the RISC-V Workshop Zurich is to be held at ETH Zürich on the 11th to 13th of June 2019 as one of several events around the globe dedicated to the promotion of the free and open source instruction set architecture (ISA) and implementations thereof.
“The microprocessor IP market is being disrupted, and RISC-V is fast gaining support as an attractive license-free approach to architecture,” the Foundation explains in support of the event. “This open standard collaboration will transform and reshape established world order of the silicon market, and the implications of this change will resonate from Silicon Valley to Silicon Fenn and beyond.”
The event can’t take place without presenters, however, and the Foundation has issued an official call for participants to speak or run poster sessions at the event. Those interested have until the 28th of February to apply, while speakers selected for participation will be notified in early March.
More information on the RISC-V Workshop Zurich can be found on the official website, while those interested in presenting at the event can submit a proposal using the Foundation’s form.
