SIGMICRO aims to stimulate the advancement of the state-of-the-art in microarchitecture research. For over 35 years, the annual MICRO conference sponsored by SIGMICRO has been a key forum for presenting major breakthroughs in computer architecture, and has established itself as the premier conference on instruction-level parallelism. The SIGMICRO newsletter publishes twice a year as a benefit of the SIG. Also, members have access privileges to the proceedings of any SIGMICRO-sponsored conference at the ACM Digital Library. SIGMICRO's long term goals toward furthering the state of the art in the field include:
ACM SIGMICRO is the right professional organization to belong to, if you are a microarchitect, microprogrammer, advanced compiler designer, or a researcher/developer of superscalar, pipelined, or fine-grain parallel computer architectures, or if you are interested in learning more about such microarchitecture topics.
In addition to providing regular updates on the website, SIGMICRO actively maintains the following social media accounts:
