        • We interact with a large variety of computing systems in our daily life. These computing systems are connected through the network to provide a wide array of services. Depending on our specific circumstances, our interactions can be with embedded and cyber-physical systems or Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices. While these devices vary in terms of form factors, performance, and energy constraints, for all these devices, security and privacy issues have come to the forefront of design considerations. These systems collect and analyze our personal, financial as well as health information on a regular basis.Consequently, research and development efforts in academia and industry have been increasingly focusing on designing systems with security and privacy in mind. Given the complexity of these systems and the diversity of the potential attacks, machine learning has become an attractive solution for security and privacy analytics. It has made its mark for detecting known software, firmware as well as hardware vulnerabilities. Recent efforts have also highlighted the need for design automation techniques to ensure that the implementation of machine learning algorithms is robust against faults and side channels to enhance the overall system security.
        • This special issue is about security challenges and solutions with emerging computing technologies, including circuit design, architecture, automation and studies on vulnerabilities.
        • Multiple emerging computing technologies, based on, e.g., Graphene, Spintronics, Resistive RAM, Quantum Computing and others are being developed to enhance the capabilities of logic devices and circuits. The rapid growth in these technologies is synchronized with the decline of Moore's law, and thus promises to herald the era of Beyond CMOS technologies with a significant improvement in energy-efficiency, reliability, performance and manufacturability. These devices enable very different computing paradigms, e.g., neuromorphic computing, non-Boolean computing, and in-memory computing, thus making these platforms an interesting playground for circuit, and application-developers alike.
        • For example, several of these devices are opening up new information side channels, which require careful analysis before using those as implementation platforms for cryptographic primitives. From another perspective, phenomenon like cross-talk in these devices can threaten well-founded counter-measures like masking which assume independence of the mask values. Likewise, fault tolerance of these devices in the context of security needs a fresh evaluation. On the other hand, for many practical use cases like IoT/CPS, and emerging cryptographic standards like post-quantum cryptography, the security kernels and countermeasures need to be designed with stringent constraints on area/energy footprints. Therefore, identifying suitable design choices and adapting them to different applications in the IoT/CPS context is a need of the hour. In essence, both the design and attack paradigms for secure systems are blended with the emergence of new computing technologies, which will be covered in this special issue.

    • About JETC Scope
    • "The Journal of Emerging Technologies in Computing Systems invites submissions of original technical papers describing research and development in emerging technologies in computing systems. Major economic and technical challenges are expected to impede the continued scaling of semiconductor devices. This has resulted in the search for alternate mechanical, biological/biochemical, nanoscale electronic, asynchronous and quantum computing and sensor technologies. As the underlying nanotechnologies continue to evolve in the labs of chemists, physicists, and biologists, it has become imperative for computer scientists and engineers to translate the potential of the basic building blocks (analogous to the transistor) emerging from these labs into information systems. Their design will face multiple challenges ranging from the inherent (un)reliability due to the self-assembly nature of the fabrication processes for nanotechnologies, from the complexity due to the sheer volume of nanodevices that will have to be integrated for complex functionality, and from the need to integrate these new nanotechnologies with silicon devices in the same system."
    • The journal provides comprehensive coverage of innovative work in the specification, design analysis, simulation, verification, testing, and evaluation of computing systems constructed out of emerging technologies and advanced semiconductors. Topics include, but are not limited to:
      • Logic Primitive Design and Synthesis
        • how to design computational logic primitives from the new nanotechnologies and design tools supporting their effective design and verification
      • System-Level Specification, Design and Synthesis
        • how to interconnect these computational primitives to build complete information systems, and design tools for specifying, synthesizing, and verifying such systems
      • Software-Level Specification, Design and Synthesis
        • how to develop the necessary software so that applications can be effectively mapped onto information systems implemented using these new nanotechnologies, and tools for generating and verifying the software
      • Mixed-Technology Systems
        • how to interface across potentially hybrid nanotechnologies that may co-exist in the same information system
      • Interactions of Emerging Technologies and Applications
        • how to develop software/hardware for emerging technologies/applications such as neuromorphic computing and machine learning, system security/privacy, etc.
    • "JETC publishes research papers (no more than 25 pages in the ACM Journal/Transactions Format, http://www.acm.org/publications/submissions), tutorial and survey papers (approximately 40 to 50 pages with an extensive bibliography), and short technical notes (less than ten pages).

Journals for Side Projects

Journals for Computational Engines

  • ACM Journal of Experimental Algorithmics (JEA):
    • The first publication devoted entirely to experimental work in algorithms and data structures
    • The Journal of Experimental Algorithmics (ISSN 1084-6654) is a high-quality journal devoted to the study of discrete algorithms and data structures from an empirical perspective. The journal welcomes original submissions that focus on design, implementation, and performance evaluation through a combination of experimentation and classical techniques.
      • JEA joins RCR: Replicated Computational Results Initiative
      • Authors of articles nearly-accepted in JEA will now be invited to apply for an RCR certificate attached to their article. For those that accept, a further reviewer will be appointed to ensure that their experimental results can be replicated. The RCR initiative aims to improve the reproducibility of experimental results in the community and adds to the trustability of the experimental results in the articles published in JEA. For more details see RCR Initiative page.
      • RCR review process: We expect that this extra reviewing will be light and will not noticeably extend the reviewing period, as it will run in parallel with the last stages of standard reviewing (the referee will communicate with the authors directly via email). The Reproducibility Referee may advise the authors on what additional information to add in the article in order to let readers reproduce the results faithfully. Reacting to this advice works in the same way as with standard referees: the parties iterate until the referee is satisfied. Ultimately, this referee will declare whether or not the computational results in the manuscript are reproducible.
      • Methods for replicating results: We rely on the expertise of the Reproducibility Reviewer to make the final determination of the designation. Presently we have two basic approaches for assessing replicability. The first is more desirable, but not always possible.
      • Independent replication: The authors provide the RCR reviewer access to, or sufficient description of, the computational platform used to produce the manuscript results. Access could be:
        • A direct transfer of software to the reviewer or a pointer to an archive of the software, and a description of a commonly available computer system the reviewer can access.
        • A guest account and access to the software on the system used to produce the results.
        • Detailed observation of the authors replicating the results.
      • To prepare the data for the review process, the authors must send to the designated Reproducibility Reviewer:
        • A repository which includes the relevant source code.
        • A readme file which describes how to run the experiments.
        • A script which triggers all experiments (e.g., generates or downloads necessary input files, compiles the programs, runs the experiments, and generates data and tables/figures).
        • An assignment of generated tables/figures (possibly also in the readme file) to tables/figures in the accepted paper.
      • Review of computational results artifacts: In some situations, authors may not be able to readily replicate computational results. Results may be from a system that is no longer available, or may be on a leadership class computing system to which access is very limited. In these situations, careful documentation of the process used to produce results could be sufficient for an RCR designation. In this case, the software should have its own substantial verification process to give the reviewer confidence that computations were performed correctly. If timing results are reported, the authors' artifacts should include validation testing of the timers used to report results.
    • To stimulate research in algorithms based upon implementation and experimentation; in particular, to encourage testing, evaluation and reuse of complex theoretical algorithms and data structures.
    • To distribute programs and testbeds throughout the research community and to provide a repository of useful programs and packages to both researchers and practitioners.
    • The ACM JEA was established to address the following issues:
      • The empirical study of combinatorial algorithms is a rapidly growing research area, with no proper outlet for publication.
      • Communication among researchers in this area must include more than a summary of results or a discussion of methods; the actual programs and data used are of critical importance.
      • Many published algorithms and data structures have never been implemented by anyone and are at risk of remaining theoretical "curiosities.'' To bring such algorithms and data structures into the practical realm often requires considerable sophistication; researchers need to be encouraged to turn their talents in that direction.
      • Most researchers find that they must program their own version of this or that well-known algorithm or data structure, because repositories for these are not available.
      • The two preceding reasons also explain why practitioners only rarely use state-of-the-art algorithms and data structures; a repository of routines, most with well documented behavior on realistic test cases, will encourage practitioners to use more recent results.
    • In addition, JEA aims to become a forum to distribute programs and testbeds throughout the research community and to provide a repository of useful programs and packages to both researchers and practitioners.
    • JEA welcomes research on algorithms and data structures for all sorts of practical computation models, including deterministic, randomized, approximate, online, parallel, distributed, streaming, and external-memory. The following are some typical, but by no means exclusive, application areas:
      • combinatorial optimization
      • computational biology
