Real Time Linux Workshop 2013: Call for Participation
Need state of the art real-time Linux? Participate at RTLWS15 in Lugano-Manno, Switzerland!
15th Real Time Linux Workshop
Call for Participation
October 28 - 31, 2013
Dipartimento tecnologie innovative
Scuola Universitaria Professionale della Svizzera Italiana
Lugano-Manno
Switzerland
Following the meetings of academics, developers and users of real-time
and embedded Linux at the previous 14 Real Time Linux Workshops held
world-wide (Vienna, Orlando, Milano, Boston, Valencia, Singapore, Lille,
Lanzhou, Linz, Guadalajara, Dresden, Nairobi, Prague and Chapel Hill) -
the 2013 Real Time Linux Workshop will come to the Scuola Universitaria
Professionale della Svizzera Italiana in Lugano-Manno, Switzerland. It will
be held from October 28 to October 31, 2013.
Rationale:
Real-time systems have evolved over the past decades in a relatively
calm manner - performance has increased, one can say dramatically, but
the main paradigms were pretty stable since the mid 80s. With the
considerable increase of computing power, notably with multicore systems
becoming mainstream in embedded devices, the requirements on RTOS are
shifting and the tools are again trying to catch up.
In stark contrast to 1999 (when the first RTLWS took place), Linux has a
strong position in all kind of embedded systems, ranging from consumer
electronics to network devices and a broad range of industrial applications
including safety related systems. The technological resources suitable
for high-availability, real-time, and safety critical systems have been
continuously expanding and improving - allowing to cover the entire
development life cycle of industrial projects based on Open Source
tools. At the core of this development is the availability of stable
operating systems with reliable real-time properties. Extending and
improving the real-time properties of Open Source RTOS is a continuous
research and development effort. The OSADL has set itself the ambitious
goal to document these efforts and it's most effective tool to do so is
the annual Real Time Linux Workshop.
Topics Covered:
- Modifications and variants of the GNU/Linux operating system and
extending its real-time capabilities,
- Contributions to real-time Linux variants, drivers and extensions,
- Tools for the verification and validation of real-time properties,
- User-mode real-time concepts, implementation and experience,
- Real-time Linux applications, in academia, research and industry,
- Safety related FLOSS systems,
- Safety related systems using FLOSS components,
- FLOSS Tools used to analyze, verify or validate safety properties,
- Work in progress reports, covering recent developments,
- Educational material on real-time Linux,
- RTOS core concepts, RT-safe synchronization mechanisms,
- RT-safe IPC mechanisms for RT and non RT components,
- 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
Program Overview 2013:
October 28: Parallel paper tracks
October 29: Linux kernel developers track
Panel discussion
"Has the Open Source concept actually arrived at industry yet?"
October 30: Parallel paper and safety track
October 31: Hands-on seminars
RT-Summit report 2013:
In the context of RTLWS15 the RT-kernel developers will report on the
status and road-map of Preempt-RT in mainline as well as results of
the RT-summit which is collocated at RTLWS15 this year.
Safety track 2013:
With COTS and particularly GNU/Linux moving into safety-critical
applications the OSADL Safety Critical Linux Working Group this year again
will host a topic session on Open Source in safety related systems.
Seminars:
On October 31 half-day and full-day seminars will be offered to
participants covering development and kernel analysis as well as
debugging tools.
