CfP: Track on Real-time and Networked Embedded Systems at ETFA 2014
19th IEEE International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation; 16-19 September 2014, Barcelona, Spain
Track on REAL-TIME AND (NETWORKED) EMBEDDED SYSTEMS

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Embedded systems are increasingly used to realize complex functionality, distributed intelligence and adaptive behavior. New functions can be deployed taking advantage of ubiquitous connectivity and networks. The design of these systems must cope with the need to manage functional complexity together with real-time, power and reliability constraints.
Contributions for the track on Real-Time and (Networked) Embedded Systems
(RTNES) are sought in, but not limited to, the following areas:
. Theory and technology in RTNES: Real-time computing, operating systems
and communications; Networked embedded systems technology; Wireless
sensor networks; Cyber physical systems.
. Design and methods in RTNES: Design and implementation; Design
methodologies and tools; Components and platforms; Models of computation
and formal methods; Hardware/software co-design; Verification and
validation methods.
. Architectures of RTNES: Distributed and System-on-Chip architectures
including communication and NoC architecture designs and protocols;
static and dynamic reconfigurable RT systems; context-aware applications
and self-adaptive architectures.
. Algorithms and control in RTNES: Energy management; Data integration and
fusion; Communication modes; Quality of service control; Compensation
mechanisms for aging and temperature; Fault-Tolerant systems.
. Case studies in RTNES: Including industrial automation, automotive,
avionics, communications, e-Health and building automation
The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers and practitioners from the industry and academia and provide them with a platform to report on recent advances and developments in the newly emerging areas of technology, as well as actual and potential applications to industrial and factory automation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONFERENCE FORMAT
The conference will comprise multi-track sessions for regular papers, to present significant and novel research results with a prospect for a tangible impact on the research area and potential implementations; Work-in-Progress (WiP) sessions; panel discussions on the state-of-the-art and emerging trends, involving leading experts from industry and academia; and public discussion sessions moderated by leading experts in the field of industrial automation systems.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
The working language of the conference is English.
Two types of submissions are solicited:
1) Long Papers - limited to 8 double column pages in a font no smaller than 10-points.
2) Work-in-Progress (WiP) and Industry Practice (IP) - limited to 4 double column pages in a font no smaller than 10-points.
Manuscripts must be submitted electronically in PDF format, according to the instructions contained in the Conference web site.
Best Paper Award: Best paper awards in Factory Automation and Emerging Technologies will be presented at the conference banquet dinner.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
PAPER ACCEPTANCE
Each accepted paper must be presented at the conference by one of the authors. The final manuscript must be accompanied by a registration form and a registration fee payment proof. All conference attendees, including authors and session chairpersons, must pay the conference registration fee, and their travel expenses.
No-show Policy: The ETFA2014 Organizing Committee reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference at IEEEXplore if the paper is not presented at the conference.
