Pitt CS Computer Architecture and Systems Reading Group
The purpose of this reading group is to help graduate students keep abreast of the latest conference computer architecture and systems research papers from the world's top conferences. Students take turns presenting papers for 15 minutes, with 2 presentations per meeting. Additional time is used for flexible discussion on one or both of the papers.
Another goal of this reading group is to place as little burden as necessary on presenters. Presenters are encouraged to reuse slides and/or figures (e.g., from the original paper, from an author's conference presentation).
Time and Place
We meet weekly on Tuesdays from 1:00 to 2:00 in Sennott Square 5317 (seminar room).
Mailing List
The subscription page allows you to sign up for the mailing list. We use the mailing list to send out announcements and the list of papers to read each week.
