New Clockwork for Time-Critical Systems 2012 Program Agenda

Submitted by Katie Dey on Mon, 10/01/2012 - 8:31pm

The start and ending times each day will not change and can be used for travel planning.

The breakout sessions are a critical part of the workshop. Attendees are expected to use these sessions as an opportunity to voice their views on the overall theme of the workshop, the points raised (or not raised) by speakers, and to contribute to the identification of needed future research efforts to realize the benefits of the "new clockwork". Each of these sessions will produce a summary report to be incorporated into a final report to the NITRD.
