Dear Colleagues,
the deadline for paper submission to the DIPES 2010 conference (www.c-lab.de/dipes) is approaching.
Please think of submitting a paper and distribute the call for papers.
Kind Regards

Conference Theme
=================
Embedded Systems build the key technological components of all kinds of
complex technical systems, ranging from telecommunications devices to
automobiles, aircraft and even complete production lines. Traditionally,
such embedded control systems have been implemented in a monolithic,
centralized manner, but distributed solutions have steadily been gaining
popularity. In a distributed setup, the control task is carried out by a
number of controllers distributed over the entire system and
interconnected as a network by communication components such as field
buses. The individual nodes of such a network usually consist of a
processor (microcontroller) together with some sensors and actuators.
More demanding local control applications require more powerful
controllers based on parallel architectures such as multiprocessor
systems-on-chips (MPSoCs) or multicore systems. Distribution and
parallelism in embedded system design increase the engineering
challenges and demand new development methods and tools. Also, the
increasing relevance of intelligent applications like autonomous systems
or systems with self-x properties calls for new design methods and
tools. Due to the growing complexity of these kinds of embedded systems,
their development requires new, consistent and integrated design
methodologies and tools, covering the path from specification to
implementation and test.
DIPES will be an ideal opportunity to present exchange and discuss the
state of the art, novel ideas, actual research results and future trends
in the field of distributed embedded systems. Contributors and
participants from both industry and academia are encouraged to take
active part in this conference.
Topics
======
include but are not limited to following aspects of distributed embedded
systems:
1. Specification and modeling
2. Design methodology
3. Design support for intelligent features
4. Self-X properties
5. Simulation and verification
6. Hardware/Software co-design
7. Software synthesis
8. Scheduling, partitioning and allocation
9. Real-time operating systems
10. Communication networks and middleware
11. Specific architectures and design support
(e.g. multicore, networked embedded systems)
12. Design space exploration
13. Power-efficient design
14. Dependability and fault tolerance
15. Case studies
Paper Submission
================
You may submit full papers up to 12 pages or extended abstracts (3 - 5
pages) describing original work on the topics above or related ones via
the DIPES conference URL http://www.c-lab.de/dipes. Extended abstracts
should provide a summary of the main results and some details to allow
the program committee to assess their merits and significance, including
references and comparisons. The contribution must be unpublished and not
submitted for publication elsewhere, including journals and the
proceedings of other symposia or workshops. One author of each accepted
paper has to present it at the conference. The proceedings will be
published by Springer Science and Business Media, the official IFIP
publisher. The final paper may be up to 12 pages.
Further formatting guidelines can be found at the publisher’s website
(http://springer.com/series/6102) or at the DIPES website.
