                              CALL FOR PAPERS

General

   Following the meetings of developers and users at the previous 9
   successful real-time Linux workshops, the Real Time Linux Workshop for
   2008 will come to Mexico, to be held at the Centro Universitario del
   Norte, University of Guadalajara.

   Embedded and real-time Linux is 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 32bit systems, opening
   the door for the use of full featured OS like GNU/Linux on COTS based
   systems. With real-time capabilities being a common demand for
   embedded systems the soft and hard real-time variants are an important
   extension to 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

   it's real-time capabilities

   * Contributions to real-time Linux variants, drivers and extensions.
   * User-mode real-time concepts, implementation and experience
   * 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

Venue

   Colotlán, Jalisco

   Universidad de Guadalajara, Centro Universitario del Norte

Accommodation

   There  are  three main Hotels in Colotlán and some other smaller ones.
   Due  to  the lack of English speakers at these Hotels, and the limited
   space,   reservations  will  be  handled  through  the  University  of
   Guadalajara  staff.  We  will need a copy of your airline reservations
   faxed or emailed in order to complete the reservation. The prices will
   be  under  30  Euros  per  night.  We  will also try to find alternate
   accommodations for students. More information coming soon.
