Hi !
would be nice if we could get an update of the current L4 activities for at the next RTLWS - CfP bellow.
thx! hofrat
13th Real-Time Linux Workshop
October 20-22, 2011 Faculty of Electrical Engineering Czech Technical University in Prague Prague, Czech Republic
Following the meetings of academics, developers and users of real-time and embedded Linux at the previous 12 real-time Linux workshops held world-wide (Vienna, Orlando, Milano, Boston, Valencia, Singapore, Lille, Lanzhou, Linz, Guadalajara, Dresden and Nairobi), the Real-Time Linux Workshop for 2011 will come to the Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Dept. of Control Engineering - academic OSADL member since 2008. The workshop will be held from October 20 to 22.
Rationale Embedded and real-time Linux are gaining traction in consumer electronics and in industrial computing in breath-taking speed. Linux runs a wide range of industrial applications including real-time and safety-related systems. And the best is that everyone on earth has access to this unparalleled pool of Open Source software as long as he or she has access to the Internet. Nevertheless, this access is by no means one-way - the return paths are from providing bug reports, additions and ideas for enhancements and, finally, the very important mechanism of peer review that makes Linux, and particularly real-time Linux, as stable and innovative as it is.
In addition to sending patches and providing feedback via Internet, direct mutual exchange between field engineers, system integrators, and project managers, and hardware, driver, board support package and kernel developers is needed. The Real Time Linux Workshop is successfully serving this purpose since more than 10 years. We are looking forward to meeting each other at another great Real Time Linux Workshop - this time in Prague, Czech Republic.
Call for papers Authors from academics, industry as well as the user community are invited to submit papers on original work related to Open Source real-time systems. Such work may deal with general topics related to Open Source based real-time systems but also with research, experiments and case studies, as well as with issues of integration of Open Source real-time and embedded systems. A special focus will be on industrial case studies and safety-related systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Modifications and variants of the GNU/Linux operating systems extending its real-time capabilities - Contributions to real-time Linux variants, drivers and extensions - User-mode real-time concepts, implementation and experience - Real-time Linux applications, in academia, research and industry - Safety-related FLOSS systems - Work in progress reports, covering recent developments - Educational material on real-time Linux - Tools for embedding Linux or real-time Linux and embedded real-time Linux applications - RTOS core concepts, RT-safe synchronization mechanisms - RT-safe interaction of RT and non RT components - IPC mechanisms in RTOS - Analysis and benchmarking methods and results of real-time GNU/Linux variants - Real-time networking with COTS - Medical applications using COTS and FLOSS - Debugging techniques and tools, both for code and temporal debugging of core RTOS components, drivers and real-time applications - Real-time related extensions to development environments
