International
Workshop on
Real Time Software
(RTS'08)
Wisla,
Poland, October 20-22, 2008
International
Workshop on Real Time Software will be held within the
framework of the International
Multiconference on Computer Science and Information
Technology,
and will be co-located with the XXIV
Fall Meeting of Polish Information Processing Society.
Proliferation
of computers interfacing with real world and controlling
their environment requires careful investigation of
approaches related to the specification, design,
implementation, testing, and use of modern computer
systems. Timing constraints, dependability,
fault-tolerance, interfacing with the environment,
reliability and safety constitute integral components of
the software development process. Appropriate education
of engineers developing such systems, working in
interdisciplinary teams and in a global environment is
of paramount importance.
In addition to traditional papers,
we plan to organize a round table discussion forum on safety critical aspects of the
education/training. We are soliciting brief one-page
position papers on education and training of engineers
developing dependable software intensive systems -
presenting the views of academia and industry (in the
submission clearly identity the "position
paper" for the engineering education round table
discussion). The accepted position papers will be a base
for 10 minutes presentation followed by a discussion.
The
workshop is planned around three main focus areas:
- Real-Time Control
- Safety, Reliability, and Dependability
- Real-Time Education
Traditional
Papers topics include but are not limited to:
- Real-time
system development
- Scheduling
- Safety
- Reliability
- Dependability
- Fault-tolerance
- Feedback
control real-time scheduling
- Hardware-software
co-design
- Standards
and certification
- Control
software
- Robotics
and UAV
- Software
development tools
- Model-based
development
- Automatic
code generation
- Real-time
systems education
- Related
engineering curricula
- Laboratory
infrastructure
- Internet-based
support
Papers Submission
- Authors
should submit draft papers (as Postscript, PDF of
MSWord file).
- The
total length of a paper should not exceed 8 pages
(IEEE style). IEEE style templates are available here.
- Papers
will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their
scientific merit and relevance to the workshop.
- Accepted
and Presented paper will be published a paper in the
Conference Proceedings and included in the IEEE
Xplore® database.
- Extended versions of
selected papers presented during the conference will be
published as a Special Issue of the journal to be
announced later.
Authors
of selected papers of the RTSCS 2007 Workshop
(predecessor of RTS) were invited to submit extended
versions of their papers to the following publications:
AGH Computer Science and in Real-Time
Journal (Germany).
