Proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Real-Time Systems (RTS'2005)
Abstract
The 13th International Conference on Real-Time Systems (RTS'2005) was held in Paris, 5-6 April 2005 within the context of the Embedded Systems 2005 trade show. The purpose of the conference is to share ideas, experiences and information among academic researchers, developers, and service providers in the field of REAL-TIME and EMBEDDED SYSTEMS. The conference is particularly aimed at applications, experimental or commercial systems, new problems including real-time constraints, emergent solutions, parallel or distributed architectures, theoretical foundations and methodologies of construction and validation taking into account timing constraints. Papers related to the following topics have been published: • real-time networks and distributed systems, • specification, modeling, validation, verification of real-time applications and systems: • design methods and languages, development environments, • task scheduling and allocation, message scheduling, • performance evaluation, benchmarking, • middleware, real-time operating systems, • fault tolerant real-time systems, • software engineering for real-time systems, real-time components, worst-case execution time, • energy-aware design. • embedded applications in transportation systems: automotive, avionic and railway fields, • control systems: implementation, performance, dependability.
