-- *** NEWS: Deadline for submission of papers extended to April 20th *** ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for papers 10th Int'l Workshop on Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis Brussels, Belgium July 6, 2010 http://www.artist-embedded.org/artist/WCET-2010.html In conjunction with the 22nd Euromicro Int'l Conference on Real-Time Systems http://ecrts.eit.uni-kl.de/ecrts10 GOALS: The goal of the workshop is to bring together people from academia, tool vendors and users in industry who are interested in all aspects of timing analysis for real-time systems. The workshop fosters a highly interactive format with ample time for in-depth discussions. It provides a relaxed forum to present and discuss new ideas, new research directions, and to review current trends in this area. The presentations will be kept short to leave plenty of time for interaction of attendees. TOPICS: The topics of the workshop include any issue related to timing analysis, in particular: - Different approaches to WCET computation - Flow analysis for WCET, loop bounds, feasible paths - Low-level timing analysis, modeling and analysis of processor features - Strategies to reduce the complexity of WCET analysis - Integration of WCET and schedulability analysis - Methods and benchmarks for WCET analysis evaluation - Case studies, and industrial experience of WCET analysis - Measurement-based WCET analysis - Tools for WCET analysis - Program and processor design for timing predictability - Integration of WCET analysis in development processes - Compiler optimizations for worst-case paths - WCET analysis for multi-threaded and multi-core systems - WCET analysis in the academic curriculum Statements which are innovative, controversial, or that present new approaches are specially sought. SUBMISSION OF PAPERS: Papers for the workshop must be written in English, should not exceed 10 pages in the specified format, and should be submitted in PDF via the EasyChair system at https://www.easychair.org/login.cgi?conf=wcet2010 Formatting instructions and templates are given at the workshop website, http://www.artist-embedded.org/artist/WCET-2010.html Submissions not adhering to the page limit, or formatting instructions, may be rejected without further reviewing. Authors of accepted papers shall prepare and submit a final version of their paper. The deadline for these final versions is June 10, 2010. The workshop proceedings with the final papers will be published by the Austrian Computer Society (OCG, http://www.ocg.at/) as OCG Schriftenreihe (with ISBN number). IMPORTANT DATES: Submission deadline (EXTENDED): April 20 Notification of acceptance: May 14 Final version of papers due: June 10 WCET Workshop: July 6 Euromicro Conf. on RTS: July 7-9 WORKSHOP CHAIR: Björn Lisper, Mälardalen University, Sweden PROGRAM COMMITTEE: Antoine Colin, Rapita Systems Ltd., UK Amine Marref, Mälardalen University, Sweden Christine Rochange, IRIT, University of Toulouse, France Isabelle Puaut, University of Rennes I/IRISA, France Niklas Holsti, Tidorum Ltd, Finland Stefan Petters, Polytechnic Institute of Porto, Portugal Heiko Falk, Technische Universität Dortmund, Germany Chris Healy, Furman University, USA Raimund Kirner, Vienna University of Technology, Austria Daniel Grund, Saarland University, Germany Abhik Roychoudhury, National University of Singapore, Singapore Daniel Kästner, AbsInt GmbH, Germany STEERING COMMITTEE: Guillem Bernat, Rapita Systems Ltd., UK Jan Gustafsson, Mälardalen University, Sweden Peter Puschner, Vienna University of Technology, Austria The workshop is supported by the ArtistDesign NoE, http://www.artist-embedded.org/artist/
