CFP: Ninth International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Real-Time Systems (WPDRTS 2001), April 23-24, 2001, San Francisco, USA




                              CALL FOR PAPERS

                      Ninth International Workshop on
                 Parallel and Distributed Real-Time Systems

                                WPDRTS 2001

               April 23-24, 2001, San Francisco Airport Hyatt
     (held in conjunction with the International Parallel & Distributed
                     Processing Symposium, IPDPS 2001)


Real-time systems have rapidly advanced from application-specific
embedded
systems designed to handle periodic updates from sensors to include
large
distributed heterogeneous systems designed for asynchronous and dynamic
operation with high degrees of flexibility, autonomy, quality of
service,
and reliability. WPDRTS brings together researchers to discuss/exchange
ideas in the area of large-scale parallel and distributed real-time
systems,
including topics such as architectures, modelling and evaluation
techniques,
programming language and run time systems support, techniques for
increasing
overall quality of service, reliability and survivability. This year's
workshop is particularly interested in papers that report new methods
and
techniques for component based development of parallel and distributed
real
time systems (CBD-PDRTS), middleware for distributed real-time systems,
and
real time operating systems. General topics of interest include:

 Modeling, Analysis and System
 Specification                             Architectures and
Implementation
          New Paradigms                             System Architectures
          Benchmarking                              Run-Time Systems
 Tools and Environments                    Scheduling
 Formal Methods                            Resource Management
 Object Orientation                        Applications
 Validation                                         Multimedia
 Languages                                 Signal and Image Processing
 Simulation                                Databases
 Communications and Networking             Command and Control
 High Assurance Systems
