Contributions to a special Work-in-Progress (WiP) session of ECRTS'13 
are sought. The ECRTS'13 WiP session will be devoted to new and on-going 
research on real-time systems and applications. We are especially 
interested in new and creative ideas and approaches. Contributors to 
the WiP session will be required to give a short oral presentation of 
their work and prepare a poster for the WiP discussion forum that will 
be held after the presentations. Accepted submissions will be included 
in a special ECRTS'13 WiP proceedings that will be distributed to all 
ECRTS'13 conference participants and will be available electronically 
from the Web. 

The primary purpose of this session is to provide researchers with an 
opportunity to discuss their evolving ideas and gather feedback from 
the real-time community at large. Submissions dealing with all aspects 
of real-time issues are welcome. These include, but are not limited to:

REAL-TIME APPLICATIONS             RELIABLE SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGIES 

- consumer electronics             - programming languages 
- multimedia and entertainment     - compiler support
- process control                  - operating systems
- avionics and aerospace           - middleware 
- automotive electronics           - model-driven engineering
- telecommunications               - component-based development
- medical devices          

INFRASTRUCTURE AND HARDWARE        SYSTEM DESIGN AND ANALYSIS

- communication networks           - probabilistic analysis 
- embedded devices                 - quality-of-service support  
- hardware/software co-design      - reliability, security, survivability
- power-aware and other resource-  - schedulability/sensitivity analysis
  constrained techniques           - worst-case execution time analysis 
- network/systems-on-chip          - verification/validation techniques
- wireless sensor networks         - control and platform co-design
                                     
                                   
Please note that papers that do not touch on real-time concerns will 
not be accepted.

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

Submissions to ECRTS WiP should describe original on-going work. The 
material must be unpublished and not under submission elsewhere. The 
paper must be in the same format as in the final published 
proceedings (A4 paper size = 210 x 297 mm = 8.2677 x 11.6929 inches, 
two-column format, font size 10) and must be limited to a maximum of 
four pages. Papers exceeding the maximum length will not be reviewed. 
The layout should conform to the IEEE format for conference 
proceedings (see http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting/).
LaTeX style files are available here: http://ecrts.eit.uni-kl.de/
fileadmin/user_media/ecrts12/IEEE_CS_LaTeX_styles.zip. Submissions 
should be made electronically, in PDF format only via the Submission 
Page for the ECRTS 2013 WiP Session: 

             https://www.softconf.com/e/ecrts2013-wip/

By submitting a paper, the authors agree and confirm that: neither 
this paper nor a version close to it is under submission or will be 
submitted before notification by ECRTS WiP 2013 and, if accepted, at 
least one author will register and present the paper at the 
conference in person.
