CPSWeek 2011
Date: Apr 11, 2011 8:00 am – Apr 14, 2011 5:00 pm
Location: Chicago, IL USA
The CPSWeek brings together five leading conferences – HSCC, ICCPS, IPSN, LCTES, and RTAS – as well as several workshops and tutorials on various aspects on the research and development of cyber-physical systems: Embedded Systems, Hybrid Systems, Real-Time and Sensor Networks.
Cyber-physical Systems (CPS) are engineered systems whose operations are monitored, coordinated, controlled, and integrated by a computing and communication core embedded in all types of objects and structures in the physical environment. Such systems must be operated safely, dependably, securely, efficiently and in real-time. Advances in this field will have great technical, economic and societal impacts in the near future.
14th International Conference on Hybrid Systems: Computation and Control (HSCC) is a leading, singletrack conference focusing on research into systems in which the interplay between discrete (or symbolic or switching) and continuous dynamical behaviors plays a key role. Such interplay often arises in embedded, reactive and cyber-physical systems, but also appears in other new contexts; for example systems biology, or mixed-signal electronic circuits. Academic and industrial researchers are invited to submit manuscripts detailing the latest developments in practice and theory pertaining to the analysis, design, control, optimization, verification, implementation and applications of such hybrid systems.
2nd International Conference on Cyber-Physical Systems (ICCPS)
Cyber-physical systems are systems with a tight coupling of the cyber aspects of computing and communications with the physical aspects of dynamics and engineering that must abide by the laws of physics. The objective of this conference is to be a primary forum for reporting state-of-the-art advances and innovations in theoretical principles, tools, applications, systems infrastructure, and testbeds for cyber-physical systems.
Contributions should emphasize the cross-cutting, system-wide themes. Sectors of applicability include, but not be limited to, transportation (automotive, aerospace, marine, rail), SCADA systems (electricity generation including smart grids and the like, other utilities), smart physical infrastructure (smart bridges, buildings and highways), energy efficiency (energy-aware buildings), environmental monitoring, defense systems, intelligent medical devices, tele-operations and robotics.
The 11th International Conference on Information Processing in Sensor Networks (IPSN) The International Conference on Information Processing in Sensor Networks (IPSN) is a leading, single-track, annual forum on sensor network research. IPSN brings together researchers from academia, industry, and government to present and discuss recent advances in both theoretical and experimental research. Its scope includes signal and image processing, information and coding theory, databases and information management, distributed algorithms, networks and protocols, wireless communications, machine learning, and embedded systems design.
LCTES - ACM SIGPLAN/SIGBED Conference on Languages, Compliers, Tools and Theory for Embedded Systems provides a link between the programming languages and embedded systems engineering communities. Researchers and developers in these areas are addressing many similar problems, but with different backgrounds and approaches. LCTES is intended to expose researchers and developers from either area to relevant work and interesting problems in the other area and provide a forum where they can interact.
The 19th IEEE Real-Time Embedded Technology & Applications Symposium (RTAS) will consist of the traditional core area of real-time and embedded systems infrastructure and theory, as well as two additional areas of special emphasis (specialized tracks): Hardware/Software Integration and Co-design, Wireless Sensor Networks.
Core Area: Real-Time and Embedded Systems:
This thrust continues from previous years with a focus on embedded and real-time systems. Papers should describe original contributions to infrastructure, system support, or theoretical foundations for real-time or embedded computing. Submissions focusing on system design, implementation, and performance evaluation, as well as industrial experience papers, are encouraged. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- networks of embedded computers;
- real-time communication;
- real-time resource management and scheduling;
- operating system and middleware support for real-time or embedded systems;
- energy and temperature management;
- QoS management;
- multimedia embedded systems;
- security, dependability and reliability for real-time embedded systems;
- real-time system modeling and analysis;
- composability;
- control theoretical approaches and performance feedback control;
- formal methods, WCET analysis;
- software engineering and programming methodologies for real-time embedded systems;
- distributed real-time information and database systems.
Area A: Hardware/Software Integration and Co-Design:
This track focuses on design methodologies and tools for hardware/software integration and co-design of modern embedded systems for real-time applications. Such systems are increasingly complex and heterogeneous, both in terms of architectures and applications they need to support, so new approaches aimed at their efficient design and optimization are in great demand. General topics relevant to this track include various architecture- and software-related issues of embedded systems design which include, but are not limited to, architecture description languages and tools, WCET analysis, software architectures, design space exploration, synthesis and optimization. Of special interest are SoC design for real-time applications, special purpose functional units, specialized memory structures, multi-core chips and communication aspects, FPGA simulation and prototyping, software simulation and compilation for novel architectures and applications, as well as power, timing and predictability analyses.
Area B: Wireless Sensor Networks:
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has emerged as a new information paradigm for distributed real-time and embedded systems. Example applications include environment monitoring, emergency response, critical infrastructure protection, medical care, intelligent transportation, and smart manufacturing. The WSN track aims at fostering interaction and collaboration of researchers and exchanging new ideas in various aspects of sensor network research. The WSN track of RTAS is open to submissions addressing any major aspect of sensor networks. Submissions concerning real-time and embedded issues are encouraged, but not required. Authors are invited to submit original works that demonstrate current research on various aspects of wireless sensor network systems. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): sensor network applications and deployment experiences; sensor network architectures and protocols; programming abstractions; operating systems and middleware for sensor networks; real-time operation issues in sensor networks; distributed networked sensing; actuation and control; power and energy management/harvesting;
wide-area sensing services; detection, classification, and estimation; localization and time synchronization; security and privacy.
