12th IEEE World conference on Factory Communication Systems (WFCS 2016) COMMUNICATION in AUTOMATION  Scope: WFCS is the largest IEEE technical event specially dedicated to industrial communication systems. The aim of this conference is to provide a forum for researchers, practitioners and developers to review current trends in this area and to present and discuss new ideas and new research directions. Focus on:

8th International Workshop on Compositional Theory and Technology for Real-Time Embedded Systems (CRTS 2015) Collocated with RTSS 2015. San Antonio TX. USA

FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS ARC2016: 12th International Symposium on Applied Reconfigurable Computing    21-24 March 2016 | Mangaratiba, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil |   http://lcr.icmc.usp.br/arc2016/

ETAPS is a confederation of several conferences, each with its own Programme Committee and Steering Committee. ETAPS is the most important and visible annual European event related to software sciences. Altogether, more than 500 researchers participate in this event every year.

29th GI/ITG International Conference on *Architecture of Computing Systems* (ARCS 2016) The ARCS series of conferences has a long tradition reporting high quality results in computer architecture and operating systems research. The focus of the 2016 conference will be on *Heterogeneity in Architectures and Systems - From Embedded to HPC*. In 2016, ARCS will be organized by the Department of Computer Science at the Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU).

HIPEAC Conference 2016: Call for Workshop/Tutorial Proposals

Submission Deadline: June 15th, 2015

The success of the workshops and tutorials of the previous years’ HiPEAC Conferences in Vienna and Amsterdam with more than 30 events each encouraged the HiPEAC 2015 organizers to try following this success story again. Hence, in conjunction with the 11th HiPEAC Conference in Prague, Czech Republic, January 18-20, 2016 (see http://www.hipeac.net/conference), we will organize parallel workshops and tutorials. Proposals for workshops and tutorials covering at least one of the following topics are welcome:

• High performance computer architecture (processor architecture, multi-/many-core system design, reconfigurable architectures)
• Software development for high performance parallel systems (development patterns/automatic techniques for parallel and reconfigurable architectures)
• Tools for compilation, evaluation, optimization as well as synthesis of high performance parallel systems (compiler support, tracing, and debugging for parallel and reconfigurable architectures, high-level synthesis tools)
• Embedded (parallel) computer architectures (embedded homogeneous and heterogeneous multicore architectures, embedded reconfigurable architectures, embedded real-time systems, mixed criticality system support, dependable systems)
• Software support for embedded architectures (Tracing and real-time analysis of embedded applications, runtime software)
• (Real-Time) Operating and runtime systems for embedded parallel computer architectures
• Crazy architectural ideas (any idea to solve computational problems away from the conventional concepts)
• Low-Power Solutions (Software, Runtime, Compilation, Hardware, Error-Aware Computation, Sub-Threshold operation, Approximate Computing, Reversible Computing)
• Future Scalable Memory Architectures (Processing-In-Memory, Near-Memory Computing, Intelligent Memory, etc.)
• Green Data Centers / Microserver (System architecture, Software tools)

We also appreciate industrial and EC project based workshops that fit into one of the mentioned focuses.

A workshop proposal should contain the following items:

• Title of the workshop (including abbreviation)
• Organizers and their affiliations
• Main topics
• Preliminary deadlines
• Expected duration and format of the workshop (half or full day, keynote, talks, panel)
• Expected number of talks and attendance and, if the workshop took place before, location and time
• Please indicate if you plan to publish an open CFP or if you plan to have invited talks only.

For a tutorial proposal please include the following information:

• Title of the tutorial
• Organizers and presenters with affiliations and a short biography
• Abstract of the tutorial and a list of the covered topics
• Some related bibliography
• Expected duration and format (half or full day, talk with demo or talk only)
• Expected attendance and, if the tutorial was held before, location and time

If the proposed event is sponsored by a third party (e.g. industry), please indicate that in the proposal.

Please submit a one page PDF with your proposal by email to the workshop and tutorial chairs
