[DMANET] RTNS 2023 Call for papers

****************************************
RTNS 2023 Call for Papers
June 7-8, 2023, Dortmund, Germany
https://rtns2023.cs.tu-dortmund.de [1]
****************************************

RTNS is a friendly and inclusive conference with a great sense of
community that presents excellent opportunities for discussion and
collaboration. This 31st occurrence of RTNS is a special one. First,
this 31st edition will be the first occurrence outside France. Second,
RTNS offers now two deadlines: one in September, and a second in
January.

Important dates
****************************************

First round:
Abstract submission: Sept. 18th, 2022
Paper submission: Sept. 22th, 2022
Notification: Nov. 10th, 2022

Second round:
Abstract submission: Jan. 13th, 2023
Paper submission: Jan. 17th, 2023
Notification: Feb. 25th, 2023

Submission link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rtns2023

Conference date: June 7-8, 2023
Conference location: Dortmund, Germany

Double submission model
****************************************

RTNS 2023 adopts a double submission model, with two rounds.

Submissions done at the first round may be:
* Rejected: no re-submission possible to the second round
* Accepted: accepted papers will receive a DOI, the list will be
published on the conference WEB site, and the author may put an author
version on their own web page. The publication will occur after the
conference.
* Under major revision: the paper may be re-submitted in the second
round and will be evaluated again by the same reviewers.

Submissions done in the second round may be only accepted or rejected.

Scope of the conference
****************************************

Original unpublished papers on all aspects of real-time systems and
networks are welcome. RTNS covers a wide-spectrum of topics in
real-time and embedded systems, including, but not limited to:

* Real-time applications design and evaluation: automotive, avionics,
space, railways, telecommunications, process control, multimedia.
* Real-time aspects of emerging smart systems: cyber-physical systems
and emerging applications, real-time big data, real-time edge/fog and
cloud computing, smart grid.
* Real-time system design and analysis: real-time tasks modeling,
task/message scheduling, evaluation, mixed-criticality systems,
Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) analysis, quality of service, security,
thermal and power-aware system design.
* Software technologies for real-time systems: model-driven
engineering, programming languages, compilers, WCET-aware compilation
and parallelization strategies, middleware, Real-time Operating Systems
(RTOS), virtualization, and hypervisors.
* Formal specification and verification: application of formal models,
such as model checking, satisfiability modulo theories, or constraint
programming, to solve real-time problems.
* Real-time distributed systems: fault tolerance, time
synchronization, task/messages allocation, adaptability and
reconfiguration, publisher/subscriber protocols, distributed real-time
database.
* Real-time networks: Time-Sensitive Networks (TSN), industrial IoT,
wired and wireless sensor and actuator networks, SDN, 5G, Networks on
Chip (NoC), end-to-end latency analysis.
* Hardware support for real-time systems: hardware/software co-design,
power/temperature-aware techniques, design of predictable hardware,
multi-core and many-core platforms, hardware accelerators, cache-related
issues, interconnect, and memory.

Submission Guidelines
****************************************

Authors are invited to submit English-language research and
application papers representing original, previously unpublished work,
not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The
papers are limited to 10 two-column pages (not including references)
in ACM conference format. The proceedings will be published by well
known editor (ongoing discussions). RTNS accepts only full papers. All
accepted papers can extend to 11 pages (excluding references) with the
extra page only to address reviewers' comments but not to add new
content.

RTNS tends to be a community, not a bunch of individual experts. Then,
authors are invited to present the results in a way such that the main
ideas can be understood by any real-time researcher and lead to
discussions and exchanges.

Authors of outstanding papers will be invited to submit an extended
version of their work to a special issue of the Springer Real-Time
Systems journal [2]. The extended papers must have at least 35% new
content. Best papers and best student papers awards will be presented at
the conference, along with an award for the best presentation.
