The CPSWeek brings together five leading conferences - HSCC, ICCPS, IPSN, HiCoNS, and RTAS

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.

The development of embedded systems with real-time and other critical constraints raises distinctive problems. In particular, development teams have to make very specific architectural choices and handle key non-functional constraints related to, for example, real-time deadlines and to platform parameters like energy consumption or memory footprint.

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 goal of the Analytic Virtual Integration of Cyber-Physical Systems (AVICPS) workshop is to explore architecture design patterns, tools and the theoretical analytical foundations for creating common system-wide composition models where key properties can be studied and guarantees provided before the start of actual development. Of particular interest are the case studies on the challenges of expressing the properties of the final product in terms of component properties and the architecture that governs their interactions. Both solutions and/or open problems are welcome.

Coordination meeting among representatives of the EU Commission,  the National Science Foundation and researchers from EU and US. The objective of the discussions is to articulate CPS research goals and compare interpretations in the US and EU research communities. 

This session focuses on methods and design tools for the exploration, analysis, simulation, selection, synthesis, and optimization of E/E automotive architectures (e.g., software, hardware, communication, wiring harness, and power architectures). These methods and tools apply to technologies such as multi-core processors, distributed systems, AUTOSAR, Flexray, CAN, Ethernet, and DSRC among others. The methods and tools are usually (but not limited to) model-based.

The second edition of IM-CPS will bring together researchers from academia and industry with expertise relevant to cyber-physical systems. IM-CPS is a forum that facilitates the interactions between various disciplines like applied mathematics, computer science, control theories and other branches of engineering. Promoting inter-disciplinary research is a major objective of IM-CPS. Some priority topics include aerospace applications and air traffic control, embedded electronics, energy systems, symbolic verification, stochastic modelling and uncertainty understanding.

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.
