*IEEE ISORC 2020 - Call for Posters and Demos https://isorc.github.io/2020/*/The 23rd IEEE International Symposium on Real-Time Distributed Computing/ Nashville, Tennessee, USA, May 19-21, 2020 *https://isorc.github.io/2020/*

IEEE ISORC has become established as the leading event devoted to state-of-the-art research in the field of object/component/service-oriented real-time distributed computing (ORC) technology. ISORC has a special session dedicated to posters and demos, where the objective is to allow participants to show prototypes, tools, simulators, and systems, which demonstrate the applicability of real-time computing to different applications. This session will enable presenters to demonstrate their work and contact directly with potential users of their technology, fostering new collaborations and promoting the adoption of new frameworks. We specially encourage the submission of results from finished or ongoing projects, demos of their use-cases and products.

*Topics*

* Software architectures for real-time distributing computing: programming paradigms, ORC paradigms, object/component models, languages, synchronous languages. * Distributed computing and communication infrastructures: real-time communications, networked platforms, protocols, Internet QoS, peer-to-peer computing, sensor networks, VANETS and V2V and V2I communications, time-predictable systems and hardware, trusted and dependable systems, complex systems of systems, model maintenance. * Algorithms for real-time analytics: real-time stream processing solutions including clustering, classification, mining and inferencing, machine and deep learning, statistical modeling, stream correlation and sampling. * System software: real-time kernels, operating systems, virtualization/container mechanisms and distribution middleware for ORC, supporting QoS management and performance, decentralized processing and scalability, extensibility, synchronization, resource allocation, scheduling, energy efficiency, timing analysis, fault tolerance and resilience, security. * Applications: medical devices, intelligent transportation systems, industrial automation systems and Industry 4.0, Internet of Things and Smart Grids, embedded and cyber-physical systems (automotive, avionics, autonomous vehicles, consumer electronics, building systems, sensors, etc), multimedia processing, RT Web-based Applications, QoS-Aware and real-time Cloud/Edge/Fog Computing, real-time packet processing for future networking infrastructures and Network Function Virtualization (NFV), time-sensitive social dispersed computing. * System evaluation: monitoring mechanisms & infrastructures, performance & timing evaluation, dependability, end-to-end QoS, system/infrastructure overheads, fault detection and recovery time, large-scale evaluations and field studies.

* Submission guidelines*

Authors should submit a 2-pages extended abstract describing the poster and an optional demonstration, in the IEEE Conference Proceedings format. The IEEE conference paper templates can be found here: https://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.htm... <ISORC has become established as the leading event devoted to state-of-the-art research in the field of object/component/service-oriented real-time distributed computing (ORC) technology.>

The program committee will review the abstracts and decide on the adequacy of the demo/poster to the conference audience. Reviews are single-blinded. Accepted abstracts will appear in the conference proceedings, and highly-rated posters invited to submit a full paper to a special issue of Elsevier Journal of Systems Architecture (JSA) https://www.journals.elsevier.com/journal-of-systems-architecture.

The session will consist of two parts: (i) a short presentation session where each participant can present slides on their demo/poster, followed by (ii) a demonstration and poster session where participants can display their work and discuss it with the attendees.

Extended abstracts are to be submitted through HoTCRP at https://isorc20-ip.mpi-sws.org.

All accepted poster/demo papers should be accompanied by a regular non-student registration. One of the authors of the poster/demo must attend and present their work at the conference.

*Important dates*

Submission deadline: March 24, 2020 Acceptance notification: April 1, 2020 Camera-ready papers: April 6, 2020 Conference: May 19 - 21, 2020
