The International Conference on Field Programmable Logic and Applications (FPL) is the first and largest conference covering the rapidly growing area of field-programmable logic. During the past 18 years, many of the advances achieved in reconfigurable architectures, applications, design methods and tools have been first published in the proceedings of the FPL conference series.
Its objective is to bring together researchers and industry from all over the world for a wide ranging discussion of FPGAs, including, but not limited to: applications, advanced electronic design automation (EDA), novel system architectures, embedded processors, arithmetic, dynamic reconfiguration, etc.
The PhD forum enables students to present their work and get feedback from experienced researchers and industrial partners.
FPL is organised yearly in Europe and attended by top-level scientists and researchers. The 19th FPL continues the tradition of the previous editions and will be hosted by the Institute of Information Theory and Application of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic from August 31 to September 2, 2009.
