CALL FOR PAPERS
Eleventh Real-Time Linux Workshop
September 28 to 30, 2009
Technische Universität Dresden
Faculty of Computer Science
Chair of Operating System (TUDOS)
Dresden, Germany
Following the meetings of developers and users at the previous ten
successful Real Time Linux Workshops held in Vienna, Orlando, Milano,
Boston, Valencia, Singapore, Lille, Lanzhou, Linz and Guadalajara, the
Real Time Linux Workshop 2009 will come to Germany.
The Real Time Linux Foundation Working Group is glad to announce that
the Eleventh Real Time Linux Workshop will be held in Dresden, Germany.
Our thanks go to Prof. Hermann Härtig and the TU Dresden for hosting the
workshop in Dresden at the Faculty of Computer Science from September 28
to 30, 2009.
Embedded and real-time Linux is a continuously growing player in the
embedded appliance market world wide. Notably initiatives in the
industrial world have been moving embedded and real-time Linux into
automation/control safety related applications and into industrial
applications with high security demands alongside typical control
capabilities. Embedded systems in automation/control, measurement and
robotics have been continuously moving towards 32-bit systems, opening
the door for the use of full-featured operating systems like GNU/Linux
on COTS based systems. With real-time capabilities being a common demand
for embedded systems, the various real-time variants are important
features of 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 applications and safety related systems.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Real-time programming models and methods in mainstream-Linux
* Modifications and variants of the GNU/Linux operating system
extending its real-time capabilities
* Contributions to real-time Linux variants, drivers and extensions
* User-mode real-time concepts, implementation and experiences
* Real-time Linux applications, in academia, research and industry
* Real-time Linux in measurement and data acquisition systems
* Linux/real-time Linux in safety related 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 related extensions to development environments

About the Faculty of Computer Science
With more than 2500 students, the Faculty of Computer Science of the TU
Dresden is one of Germany's largest education centers in the field of
computer science. The faculty offers a total of twelve different types
of final qualifications such as diploma, Master's degree, Bachelor's
degree and a degree in teacher education studies. In addition to
Computer Science and Media and Computer Science, there are five other
courses to choose from. These include two Master's degree programs which
are held in English.
A bit of history
The roots of Computer Science at the TU Dresden go back to the early
days of electronic computing. Researchers from Dresden under the
leadership of Prof. N. J. Lehmann were among the first to develop drum
storages and digital electronic computers. Founded in 1828, the TU
Dresden is one of the oldest established technical universities in
Germany with a strong emphasis on research and international
cooperation. In 1990, the Faculty of Computer Science was established in
its present form. Today, 28 professors and lecturers as well as more
than 260 staff members work at its six institutes.
