Subject: [CFP workshop] Operating System Platform for Embedded Real-Time
 applications 2010

OSPERT 2010

Sixth International Workshop on Operating Systems Platforms for Embedded
Real-Time Applications


Brussels, Belgum, 2010
July 6, 2010
in conjunction with the
22nd Euromicro Intl Conference on Real-Time Systems
Brussels, Belgium, July 7-9, 2010


Research on innovative RTOS architectures and services is a hot topic.
Developers of Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) are faced with many
challenges arising from two opposing needs: extreme optimisation of
resource usage (processor, energy, network bandwidth, etc.) and dynamic
configuration, flexible scheduling, component-based development and
deployment, etc. While real-time systems continue to be used in many
small embedded applications, real-time services are being introduced and
used in general-purpose operating systems. Notable examples are the
various flavours of Linux that provide support to time-sensitive
applications.
This workshop is intended as a forum for researchers and practitioners
of RTOS to discuss the recent advances in RTOS technology and the
challenges that lie ahead.
Topics include but are not limited to:

    * Dynamic reconfiguration and upgrading;
    * Support for component based development;
    * Scalability, from very small scale embedded systems to
      full-fledged OSes;
    * Flexible scheduling;
    * Quality of Service guarantees;
    * Real-Time on Linux;
    * Interaction with reconfigurable hardware;
    * Support for embedded multiprocessor architectures;
    * Coordinated management of multiple resources;
    * Security and fault tolerance for embedded real-time systems;
    * Power-aware operating systems.

The workshop will consist of submitted papers as well as invited
presentations about academic state-of-the-art and industrial
state-of-practice within the area.

Submission of Papers
====================

People who would like to participate in this event are asked to submit a
6-10 page paper (PS or PDF) via the workshop submission system (TBA on
the workshop webpage). Upon acceptance, a corrected version of the paper
should be prepared and submitted. All papers will be made available to
all participants a week before the workshop so that contributions can be
examined prior to the workshop.
The workshop fosters a highly interactive format of presentations
combined with ample time for in-depth discussions. There will be a small
charge for workshop registration (more details will be announced later).
See the Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems website  
http:/ecrts10.ecrts.org/
for information on the venue, hotel reservations, and the city of 
Brussels.
