An: wolf(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de Logo der Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V. MITGLIEDERINFO FG Betriebssysteme -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS - OSPERT 2020 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 16th Annual Workshop on Operating Systems Platforms for Embedded Real-Time Applications (OSPERT 2020) July 7, 2020 Modena, Italy in conjunction with ECRTS'20 https://sra.uni-hannover.de/ospert20/ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OSPERT is a forum for researchers and engineers working on (and with) Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOSs) to present recent advances in RTOS technology, to promote new and existing initiatives and projects, and to identify and discuss the challenges that lie ahead. The workshop, now in its eleventh year, provides the RTOS community with an opportunity to meet, to exchange ideas, to network, and to discuss future directions. OSPERT’18 strives for an inclusive and diverse program and solicits a range of varied contributions. To this end, the following types of submissions are sought: 1. proposals for stand-alone presentations (including talks on open problems, demos & tutorials, calls to action, etc.); 2. proposals for reports on empirical experiments (including replication studies, preliminary experiments preceding a full conference submission, and negative experience reports discussing failed approaches); and 3. technical papers (short papers and full workshop papers). See https://sra.uni-hannover.de/ospert20/formats.html for a detailed description of the different contribution formats. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES Submission deadline: April 16, 2020 (23:59 GMT-12) Notification of Acceptance: May 13, 2020 Final submissions: May 29, 2020 Workshops: July 7, 2020 ECRTS'19: July 07-10, 2020 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCOPE AND TOPICS OF INTEREST OSPERT is open to all topics related to providing a reliable and efficient operating environment for real-time and embedded applications. Developers of embedded RTOSs are faced with many challenges arising from two opposite needs: on the one hand there is a need for extreme resource usage optimization (processor cycles, energy, network bandwidth, etc.), and on the other hand there are also increasing demands in terms of scalability, flexibility, isolation, adaptivity, reconfigurability, predictability, serviceability, and certifiability, to name a few. Further, while special-purpose RTOSs continue to be used for many embedded applications, real-time services are also increasingly introduced and used in general-purpose operating systems, and market pressures continue to blur the lines between the two formerly distinct classes of operating systems. Notable examples are the various flavors of real-time Linux that support time-sensitive applications, the emergence of commercial and open-source real-time hypervisors, as well as the growth in features and scope of embedded OS and middleware specifications such as AUTOSAR.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP Special Issue "Cooperative Perception for Intelligent Vehicles" - Sensors (Impact Factor: 3.031) Datum: Tue, 18 Feb 2020 10:40:32 +0100 Von: Sepulcre Ribes, Miguel <msepulcre(a)UMH.ES> Antwort an: Sepulcre Ribes, Miguel <msepulcre(a)UMH.ES> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS - Special Issue "*Cooperative Perception for Intelligent Vehicles*" - Sensors (Impact Factor: 3.031) Deadline for manuscript submissions: 15 May 2020. https://www.mdpi.com/journal/sensors/special_issues/Intelli_Vechicles Automated vehicles are expected to have a significant impact in the transport sector in the next decades, improving road safety and traffic efficiency, as well as reducing energy consumption and improving user comfort. Automated vehicles make use of a set of onboard sensors installed in the vehicle (e.g. camera, radar and lidar) that are responsible for perceiving the surrounding environment, and a set of actuators that control its longitudinal and lateral movements. One of the development objectives is to automatically perform driving tasks with less or even without driver intervention. Several studies have already shown that the sensors used in the perception process have limitations that might degrade the performance of automated vehicles. For example, in adverse weather conditions (such as rain, snow and fog), the cameras will not be able to adequately capture the environment, and in situations where the sensor’s field of vision is blocked (by other vehicles or buildings) none of the current sensors can detect beyond the position of the obstacle. To overcome these limitations and improve the perception capabilities of the vehicles, cooperative perception enables the wireless exchange of sensor information between vehicles and between vehicles and infrastructure nodes. Cooperative perception, also known as cooperative sensing or collective perception, enables vehicles and infrastructure nodes to detect objects (e.g. non-connected vehicles, pedestrians, obstacles) beyond their local sensing capabilities. Cooperative perception can be key for extended and timely detection of the surrounding environment and can also enable cooperative applications by compensating low penetration rates of connected road users, thus facilitating the future deployment of automated vehicles. The purpose of this Special Issue is to present and discuss major research challenges, latest developments, and recent advances on cooperative perception. This Special Issue solicits the submission of high-quality papers from academia and industry that aim to solve open technical problems or challenges in the context of cooperative perception. Original and innovative contributions on all aspects, both theoretical and experimental, are all welcome. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following: - Application development and validation based on cooperative perception - V2X communication algorithms and protocols for cooperative perception - Communication technologies for cooperative perception - Radio resource allocation for cooperative perception - Congestion control for cooperative perception - Infrastructure-assisted solutions for cooperative perception - Security analysis and algorithms for cooperative perception - Artificial intelligence and machine learning-based cooperative perception - Sensor design and configuration for cooperative perception - Sensor architectures and technologies for cooperative perception - The impact of sensor data and sensor data fusion quality on the effectiveness of cooperative perception - Sensor data fusion problems, algorithms and architectures in the context of cooperative perception - Simulation platforms and experimental testbeds for cooperative perception Keywords: - Cooperative perception (also known as cooperative sensing or collective perception) - Connected automated vehicles - V2X communications - Simulation platforms - Experimental testbeds *Special Issue Editors* - Dr. Miguel Sepulcre - Dr. Michele Rondinone - Dr. Andreas Leich - Dr. Meng Lu *Dr. Miguel Sepulcre* Associate Professor - Wireless Networks, http://www.uwicore.umh.es Universidad Miguel Hernandez de Elche (UMH), Spain Associate Editor for IEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine and IEEE Communications Letters Google Scholar profile: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=FPLLIHsAAAAJ&hl=en ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Wi-DroIT 2020 – 2nd International Workshop on Wireless Drones over Internet of Things Datum: Mon, 17 Feb 2020 12:56:07 -0600 Von: Francesco Betti Sorbelli <francesco.betti.sorbelli(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Francesco Betti Sorbelli <francesco.betti.sorbelli(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Wi-DroIT 2020 – 2nd International Workshop on Wireless Drones over Internet of Things Marina Del Rey, Los Angeles, CA, USA May 25-27, 2020 Link: https://sites.google.com/view/widroit2020 in conjunction with the: 16th International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (DCOSS 2020) Workshop papers will get 8 pages in the IEEE proceedings, in the same volume with the DCOSS papers. Important Dates Paper Submission: 15th March Acceptance Notification: TBD Camera Ready: 15th April Early Registration: TBD In the last few years, Unmanned Autonomous Vehicles (UAVs), have developed rapidly and have been used for emergent applications that range from inspection, surveillance, agriculture, cargo delivery, and communications. The symbiosis between UAVs and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) started quite naturally: UAVs perform remote sensing, act as data muler that carry the data collected by the WSN. Evolving WSN in Internet of Things (IoT) devices, single or multiple Drones/UAVs can cooperatively provide services that require efficient protocols where multiple objectives and constraints should be accounted. For this workshop, we search for papers that combine design of algorithms, optimization, and test-bed to develop the theoretical foundations for the UAV systems operating in symbiosis with WSN in IoT applications. The numerous emergent applications nurtured by IoT may require an interdisciplinary approach, involving techniques from algorithm foundations and different areas, such as robotics, artificial intelligence, mathematical modelling, machine learning. Possible topics are: Autonomous WSN via Drones Topology monitoring of WSN with Drones Build Remote Sensing Networks via Drones Communication architectures and protocols of Drones over IoT Modelling and analysis of Drone systems over IoT Precision Agricolture Monitoring crops Controling bugs in Agricolture Drones for environment monitoring Autopilot and UAS autonomy UAV mission planning, path planning, and scheduling Parcel delivery using Drones 4G-5G networks and UAVs Constraints and multiobjective optimization problems in UAVs Ground Localization with Drones Cooperative control of multiple UAVs UAV secure communication techniques Optimal UAV deployment strategies Experimental results, simulators and test beds for drone networks Single UAV Applications Multi-UAV Applications Human Rights and Drones Submission deadlines Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on distributed sensor systems related to WiDroIt topics of interest. Please use the US letter size (8.5 X 11 in) standard IEEE conference LaTeX format or Microsoft Word template available on the link below: http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html All submissions should be written in English and submitted as a full paper.
