Work-in-progress papers can be submitted here

RTAS'2001 seeks papers describing significant contributions to the broad field of real-time computing and communication, ranging from QoS issues in computation and networking, systems integration, scheduling, operating systems, middleware, software engineering, dependability, databases, programming languages, system development tools, performance modeling, and various applications like multimedia, telecommunication and embedded systems. Of particular interest are papers detailing experiments, implementations, and experiences in application domains that present significant temporal constraints, including, but not limited to: 

  • Advanced transportation systems (air, land, and water)
  • Automated manufacturing 
  • Embedded systems
  • Internet QoS, Video on Demand, network middleware and QoS
  • Multimedia computing (including real-time file systems)
  • Object-oriented design techniques
  • Power management and process control 
  • E-commerce and stock market
  • Testbeds and measurements 
  • Wireless and robotics

Continuing this year, RTAS will include a best student award. To be considered, the work in the paper must be conducted mainly by students, the first author should be a student, and the student must present the paper at RTAS01. As in previous years, the best papers presented at the symposium will be forwarded to technical journals for fast publication (likely candiates are Real-Time Systems Journal, IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking, on Parallel and Distributed Systems, and on Software Engineering).

Submission Guidelines

Manuscripts to be considered as full papers should be original work limited to 20 double-spaced pages (approximately 5000 words).Work-in-progress (WIP) abstracts to be considered for an "Ongoing Work" session should be limited to 6 double-spaced pages. Papers departing significantly from these guidelines will be returned to the authors unread. Submissions for WIP should reach the WIP chair by March 1, 2001. Any paper submitted to the Symposium must not have been published in or submitted to other technical cnferences/journals. 

Electronic Manuscript Submission

The preferred format for electronic submission is PDF suitable for Acrobat Reader. Postscript with US letter size or A4 pages will also be accepted. Follow the instructions in the submission webpage to electronically submit the manuscript.
