[Marcin Paprzycki]

Preliminary Call for Papers

RTS’07
International Workshop on Real-Time Software
Wisła, Poland, October 16, 2007
www.rts.imcsit.org

Within the framework of the IMCSIT: International Multiconference on
Computer Science and Information Systems, October 15-17, 2007
www.imcsit.org

The conference and the workshop are organized in cooperation with the 
Poland Chapter of the IEEE Computer Society and with the Systems 
Research Institute of the Polish Academy of Science.

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. These and related issues will be discussed during the 
Workshop on Real-Time Software.

The workshop is planned around three main focus areas:
•	Real-Time Control
•	Safety, Reliability, and Dependability
•	Real-Time Education

Topics include but are not limited to:
•	real-time system development
•	real-time scheduling
•	feedback control scheduling
•	safety
•	reliability
•	dependability
•	fault-tolerance
•	hardware-software co-design
•	standards and certification	
•	control software
•	robotics and UAV
•	software development tools
•	model-based development
•	automatic code generation
•	real-time systems curricula
•	related engineering curricula
•	laboratory infrastructure
•	Internet-based support


Important Dates:
•	Draft Papers Submission: June 25, 2007 (via dedicated website 
http://www.imcsit.org/)
•	Notification of Acceptance: August 6, 2007
•	Camera-Ready Papers: September 7, 2007
•	Workshop: October 16, 2007


Submission:
•	Authors should submit draft papers (as Postscript, PDF of MSWord file 
on the  dedicated IMCSIT website)
•	The total length of a paper should not exceed 10 pages (LNCS style – 
see link from http://www.imcsit.org)
•	Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific 
merit and relevance to the workshop focus areas.
•	Accepted and presented papers will be included in the Conference 
Proceedings and published on a CD (ISSN 1896-7094).
•	Extended versions of selected papers will be published in a technical 
journal (to be announced).
