CALL FOR PAPERS FOR THE SPECIAL TRACK:
*------------------------------------------*
EMBEDDED SYSTEMS
Applications, Solutions, and Techniques

*The submission deadline is approaching:*
*September 8th, 2009*
Higher and higher computing power is demanded by CPU-enabled devices
currently used in everyday life. Embedded systems are nowadays present
in an impressive number of different applications, from consumer
electronics to biomedical systems, and the success of their employment
is often determined by their functionality/cost ratio. Embedded software
has recently developed towards new complexity levels, posing new
challenging issues: the adoption of further flexible programming
paradigms/architectures is becoming almost mandatory, taking also into
account the multithreaded structure required to adequately exploit
possible multicore CPUs. Nonetheless, the market pressure calls for the
employment of new methodologies for shortening the development time and
for driving the evolution of existing products. New efficient solutions
to problems emerging in this setting can be put into action by means of
a joint effort of academia and industry.
Design of embedded systems must take into account a wide variety of
constraints: performance, code size, power consumption, presence of
real-time tasks, maintainability, security and possibly scalability: the
more convenient trade-off has to be found, often operating on a large
number of different parameters. In this scenario, solutions can be
proposed at different levels of abstraction, making use of an assortment
of tools and methodologies: researchers and practitioners have a chance
to propose new ideas and to compare experimentations.
The focus of this conference track is on the application of both novel
and well-known techniques to the embedded systems development.
Particular attention is paid to solutions that require expertise in
different fields (e.g. computer architecture, OS, compilers, security,
software engineering, simulation).
The track will benefit also from direct experiences in the employment of
embedded devices in "unconventional" application areas, so to show up
new challenges in the system design/development process. In this
setting, researchers and practitioners from academia and industry will
get a chance to keep in touch with problems, open issues and future
directions in the field of development of dedicated applications for
embedded systems.
