Abstract:
Many believe that ChatGPT is revolutionizing the world as it has led to significant improvements in the way we access and process information and knowledge. Obviously, ChatGPT is making a profound impact on computing systems as follows:
- By significantly increasing the demand on the computational power our computing systems provide;
 - By calling for new system architectures and realization to support the related computation more effectively; and
 - By improving the system design and implementation.
 
This panel intends to address these related issues, which should be timely and critical for our ICDCS community.
