LCTES 2011 - FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS
ACM SIGPLAN/SIGBED Conference on
Languages, Compilers, Tools,
and Theory for Embedded Systems
(In conjunction with CPS Week 2011)
Chicago, Illinois, USA, April 12-14 2011
http://lctes2011.elis.ugent.be
*********************************************************
Deadline: 8 October 2010.
Embedded system design faces many challenges both with respect to functional
requirements and non-functional requirements, many of which are
conflicting. They are found in areas such as design and developer
productivity,
verification, validation, maintainability, and meeting performance goals and
resource constraints. Novel design-time and run-time approaches are
needed to
meet the demand of emerging applications and to exploit new hardware
paradigms,
and in particular to scale up to multicores and distributed systems
built from
multicores. LCTES 2011 solicits papers presenting original work on
programming
languages, compilers, tools, theory and architectures that help in
overcoming
these challenges. Research papers on innovative techniques are welcome,
as well
as experience papers on insights obtained by experimenting with real-world
systems and applications.
Papers are solicited on, but not limited to, the following topics in
embedded
and cyber-physical systems:
* Programming language challenges, including:
Domain-specific languages
Features to exploit multicore, reconfigurable, and other emerging
architectures
Features for distributed, adaptive, and real-time control embedded
systems
Language capabilities for specification, composition, and
construction of embedded systems
Language features and techniques to enhance reliability,
verifiability, and security
Virtual machines, concurrency, inter-processor synchronization, and
memory management
* Compiler challenges, including:
Interaction between embedded/cyber-physical architectures,
operating systems, and compilers
Interpreters, binary translation, just-in-time compilation, and
split compilation
Support for enhanced programmer productivity
Support for enhanced debugging, profiling, and exception/interrupt
handling
Optimization for low power/energy, code and data size, and
best-effort and real-time performance
Parametrized and structural compiler design space exploration and
autotuning
* Tools for analysis, specification, design, and implementation, including:
Hardware, system software, and application software, and their
interfaces
Distributed real-time control, media players, and reconfigurable
architectures
System integration and testing
Performance estimation, monitoring, and tuning
Run-time system support for embedded and cyber-physical systems
Design space exploration tools
Support for system security and system-level reliability
Approaches for cross-layer system optimization
* Theory and foundations of embedded and cyber-physical systems, including:
Predictability of resource behavior: energy, space, time
Validation and verification, in particular of concurrent and
distributed systems
Formal foundations of model-based design as basis for code
generation, analysis, and verification
Mathematical foundations for embedded systems
Models of computations for embedded applications
* Novel embedded and cyber-physical architectures, including:
Design and implementation of novel architectures
Workload analysis and performance evaluation
Architecture support for new language features, virtualization,
compiler techniques, and debugging tools
Submission deadline: 8 October 2010. Page limit, format, blind review
and other
Submission guidelines: see http://lctes2011.elis.ugent.be. There will
also be
a call for posters and work-in-progress presentations.
The conference proceedings will be published by the ACM. The authors of
the best
papers of the conference will be invited to submit an extended version to a
special issue on LCTES of ACM Transactions in Embedded Computing
Systems. The
best paper and the best presentation will receive an award.
