9th Real-Time Linux Workshop

November 2-4, 2007 Institute for Measurement Technology Johannes Kepler University of Linz

CALL FOR PAPERS

General

Following the meetings of developers and users at the previous 8 successful real-time Linux workshops held in Vienna, Orlando, Milano, Boston, and Valencia, Singapur, Lille, and Lanzhou the Real-Time Linux Workshop for 2007 will come back to Europa, to be held at the Institute for Measurement Technology, Johannes Kepler University of Linz, Austria.

Embedded and real-time Linux is continuously growing player in the embedded appliance market world wide. Embedded systems in automation control, measurement and multimedia have been continuously moving towards 32bit systems, opening the door for the use of full featured OS like GNU/Linux on COTS based systems. With real-time capabilities being a common demand for embedded systems the soft and hard real-time variants are an important extension to the versatile GNU/Linux GPOS.

Authors are invited to submit original work dealing with general topics related to real-time Linux research, experiments and case studies, as well as issues of integration of real-time and embedded Linux. A special focus will be on industrial case studies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Modifications and variants of the GNU/Linux operating system extending it's 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 * Real-time Linux in measurement and data-aquisition systems * Signal processing with Linux/real-time Linux. * 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 * Analysis and Benchmarking methods and results of real-time GNU/Linux variants. * Debugging techniques and tools, both for code and temporal debugging of core RTOS components, drivers and real-time applications * Real-time realted extensions to development environments * RT-Linux in safety-critical systems
