The conference will be co-located with the 40th International
Conference on Applications and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency
(Petri Nets 2019).


IMPORTANT DATES:
Abstract submission : January 25, 2019 (extended,*)
Submission of Papers: February 1, 2019 (extended,*)
Notification : March 8, 2019
Final Version Due : March 22, 2019 (*)
Conference : June 23-28, 2019
(*) The deadline is the end of day Anywhere on Earth (AoE)

The 19th international ACSD conference will be organized by the
Process and Data Science (PADS) group at RWTH Aachen University,
Aachen, Germany. The conference will take place in the conference area
of the Tivoli football stadium, close to the city center of Aachen.
The language of the conference is English. The conference proceedings
will be submitted for inclusion to IEEE Xplore.


CONFERENCE SCOPE:
The conference aims at cross-fertilizing both theoretical and applied
research about formal approaches (in a broad sense) to designing
computer systems that exhibit concurrent behavior. In particular, the
following topics are of interest:
- Formal models of computation and concurrency for synchronous and
asynchronous systems and problems, like data-flow models,
communicating automata, Petri nets, process algebras, graph rewriting
systems, state charts, MSCs, modal and temporal logics
- Design principles for concurrent systems, in particular
hardware/software co-design, platform-based design, component-based
design, modular synthesis, distributed simulation and control,
refinement techniques, hardware/software abstractions, cross-layer
optimization
- Algorithms and tools for concurrent systems, ranging from
programming languages to algorithmic methods, for system analysis and
construction, including model checking, verification, and static
analysis techniques as well as synthesis procedures
- High-performance computer architectures like many-core processors,
on-chip-networks, graphics processing units, instruction-level
parallelism, dataflow architectures, cache coherency, memory systems,
up to ad-hoc, mobile, and wireless networks
- Resource management in implementations including task and
communication scheduling, network-, memory-, and power-management,
energy/power distribution, fault-tolerance, quality of service,
scalability, load balancing, power proportionality
- Real-time aspects, incl. hard real-time requirements, security- and
safety-critical issues, functional and timing verification
- Cyber-physical systems, hybrid systems, networked systems, and
networks in biological systems
- Case studies of general interest, from industrial applications to
consumer electronics and multimedia, automotive systems, (bio-)
medical applications, neuromorphic applications, internet (ofáthings)
and grid computing, to gaming applications.


PAPER SUBMISSION:
ACSD seeks papers describing original work which has not been
previously published and is not under review for publication
elsewhere. All files must be prepared using the latest IEEE Computer
Society conference proceedings guidelines (8.5 xŁ11 inch two-column
format). The page limit for regular papers is 10 pages. Accepted
papers will be included in the conference proceedings.
At least one author of each accepted contribution is expected to
present the paper at the conference, and will be required to sign the
copyright release forms. All papers have to be submitted via
EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=acsd2019.

AACHEN
Aachen is a historic city in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, at the
point where Germany borders on Belgium and the Netherlands.
Historically this spa-town was a prominent city, the place where the
German Kings were crowned, and the residence of Charlemagne who still
lies buried in the impressive cathedral he himself had built. The city
has many historical sites that remind of those days, including
medieval buildings, city gates, and beautiful fountains. Aachen is
Germany's westernmost city. It lies near the borders with Belgium and
the Netherlands and is nestled between the large national parks of the
Eifel and the Ardennes. The city has a population of 260,000, which
includes about 50,000 students and more than 4,000 academic staff from
across the world. Its lively student community lends the city just as
much character as its history. Aachen is famous for its Printen
gingerbread, its hot springs, its Mardi Gras carnival and one of the
world's largest equestrian tournaments. The historic city center and a
wealth of bars, cafes, and restaurants, combined with the nearby
nature parks, such as the Eifel, make Aachen a city where everyone
feels at home. The venue of the conference, the Tivoli football
stadium, is located on the border of the city center. This beautiful
venue will provide a unique atmosphere with great views and excellent
conference facilities.
