Call for WiP Papers

The Work-in-Progress (WiP) session at RTAS 2015 is dedicated to new and on-going research in the field of real-time and embedded systems. Authors are invited to submit short abstracts (up to 2 pages) describing ongoing, unpublished work in all areas of real-time and embedded technology, including applications, systems, tools, methodologies, foundations, wireless sensor networks, and hardware-software co-design. In keeping with the spirit of the main symposium, submissions with an emphasis on systems and application aspects are especially encouraged.

The WiP session provides researchers and developers with an opportunity to discuss evolving and early-stage ideas, and to solicit feedback from the real-time systems community at large. Authors of all accepted papers will be required to give a short oral presentation, followed by presenting their work at a poster session. A proceedings containing all accepted papers will be distributed online and at the conference.

IMPORTANT DATES

WiP submission deadline: 13 February 2015

WiP acceptance notification: 1 March, 2015

WiP final manuscript deadline: 16 March, 2015
