****************************************************** International Workshop on Open Distributed Real-time Embedded Systems in IEEE ISORC 2020 ODRE 2020 - Call for Papers http://ODRE2020.bridgeus.de/ Full Paper Submission: January 31, 2020 ****************************************************** Aim *********************** The ODRE 2020 workshop is indented to be a forum for the exchange of novel and innovative ideas related to Open Distributed Real-time Embedded (ODRE) systems. ODRE systems have gained importance, especially in recent years by evolving embedded systems towards novel application areas that combine stringent real-time constraints, reliability requirements and the need for the open-world assumption. Examples are Ambient-Assisted Living (AAL) systems for elderly care, networked medical devices, and health management systems, applications for mechatronic systems as well as Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). In many application fields, ODRE systems must also perform tasks in the areas of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data. Solicited papers *********************** Research papers • Survey papers • Work-in-progress papers • Industry practice papers Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: *********************** ° Software and Hardware Architectures for ODRE Systems ° Communication Networks and Connectivity ° Tools and Algorithms for Scheduling ° Semantic Technologies and Knowledge Graphs in Real-Time Systems ° Block-Chain and Semantic Web ° Mixed-Criticality and Real-Time Applications on SoCs ° Real-Time Signal Processing and Filtering ° Simulation-Tools and Analysis for ODRE Systems ° Fault detection and diagnosis ° Fault Tolerance and Reliability ° Neural Networks in Edge-Computing Environments ° Modeling and design ° Artificial Intelligence (AI) ° Big-Data Technologies ° Cyber-physical Systems (CPS) ° Mechatronics Important dates *************** Full Paper Submission: Extended to January 31, 2020 Rebuttal Period: March 9-11, 2020 Acceptance notification: March 20, 2020 Camera-ready papers: April 6, 2020 Submission Guideline *********************** Prospective authors are invited to submit manuscripts in the English language that can be up to 6 pages maximum* and should be formatted in PDF using the IEEE Conference format. For your convenience, the Conference Paper Templates from IEEE in various formats are linked here to prepare your manuscript. The papers may explicitly include the primary results and findings, emphasizing new advances, theories and/or applications so that the program committee will be able to understand the originality and the value of the work. All papers must be submitted electronically to the EasyChair Website. *The maximum length for papers is 6 pages, however, a maximum of two extra pages may be purchased during the camera-ready submission of accepted papers. Papers less than 5 pages and more than 8 pages will be automatically rejected without exceptions! Paper acceptance *********************** Manuscripts will be peer-reviewed by the Technical Program Committee. A submission implies a willingness to register and present the work if the paper is accepted for presentation at the workshop. Accepted papers after proper registration and presentation by at least one of the authors will be included in the workshop proceeding published by IEEE in the IEEE Xplore digital library. Failure to present the paper in person can lead to the paper being withdrawn from the proceeding. The final manuscript must be accompanied by a registration form and a registration fee payment proof. All workshop attendees must pay the workshop registration fee and their travel, accommodation, and other personal expenses on their own. Workshop venue *********************** The ODRE 2020 Workshop will take place in conjunction with the IEEE ISORC 2020 (Nashville, Tennessee, USA). Organizers *********************** General Chairs - Roman Obermaisser, UNIVERSITY OF SIEGEN, GERMANY - Mahdi Bohlouli, PETANUX GmbH, GERMANY Organizing Committee and Publicity Chairs - Ali Behravan, UNIVERSITY OF SIEGEN, GERMANY - Michael Schmidt, UNIVERSITY OF SIEGEN, GERMANY Workshop Sponsor *********************** The ODRE 2020 workshop is supported by the BMBF and German Aerospace Center (DLR) project management agency (DLR Projektträger) funded project BRIDGE-US as part of the campaign “The Future of Work”.
