Following the meetings of academics, developers and users of real-time
and embedded Linux at the previous 16 Real Time Linux Workshops held
world-wide (Vienna, Orlando, Milano, Boston, Valencia, Singapore, Lille,
Lanzhou, Linz, Guadalajara, Dresden, Nairobi, Prague, Chapel Hill,
Lugano and Düsseldorf) - the 2015 Real Time Linux Workshop will come to
the Virtual Vehicle Research Center in Graz, Austria. It will be held
from October 21 to October 22, 2015. We gratefully acknowledge the
offering of Virtual Vehicle to host and co-organize this year's RTLWS in
Graz.


Call for papers
