SAMOS is a premier and well-established conference on embedded systems organized annually since 2001. The conference brings together researchers from academia and industry on the quiet and inspiring northern mountainside of the Mediterranean island of Samos. It provides an environment where collaboration rather than competition is fostered. The conference considers new state-of-the-art mature research papers on all aspects of embedded processor hardware/software design and integration.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is sponsoring a workshop on March 13-14, 2012 in Chicago, Illinois to identify crosscutting technical barriers and knowledge gaps limiting

The International Conference on Embedded Software (EMSOFT) brings together researchers and developers from academia, industry, and government to advance the science, engineering, and technology in embedded software development. EMSOFT 2011 is part of the Embedded Systems Week.

Embedded Systems Week is an exciting event which brings together conferences, tutorials, and workshops centered on various aspects of embedded systems research and development. Three leading conferences in the area - CASES, CODES+ISSS, and EMSOFT - will take place at the same time and location, allowing attendees to benefit from a wide range of topics covered by these conferences and their associated tutorials and workshops.

Multi-Paradigm Modelling (MPM) is a research field focused on solving the challenge of combining, coupling, and integrating rigorous models of some reality, at different levels of abstraction and views, using adequate modelling formalisms and semantic domains, with the goal to simulate (for optimization) or realize systems that may be physical, software or a combination of both. The key challenges are finding adequate Model Abstractions, Multi-formalism modelling, Model Transformation and the application of MPM techniques and tools to Complex Systems.

The conference  covers all aspects of model-based development for software and systems engineering, including modeling languages, methods, tools, and their applications.

The CPS topic in DATE includes high-level design, optimization and analysis of networked control and switched control systems; control/architecture co-design for distributed embedded systems; formal semantics, verification, model checking and abstraction refinement techniques for control software and systems; simulation and testing; architectures; modeling techniques; architecture-aware controller synthesis; model-based approaches to cyber-physical systems design; reliability-aware design and fault- tolerance; certification issues; specification languages and programming support; case studi

This workshop aims to bring together  researchers from industry and academia that work in the area of fundamental science and
engineering related to the CPS challenge. The meeting is part of the Dagstuhl Seminar Series. Key topics to be discussed are: The research topics related to CPSs to be covered in the seminar are thus (1) Composition & system integration, (2) Design automation, (3) Certification & security/privacy, (4) Theoretical Foundations and (5) Design Paradigms.
