International Workshop on
Real-Time Constraints
Extended Deadline: September 7, 1999!!!

NEW!!! Work-in-Progress Session (Click here for WiP CFP!)
WiP paper submission deadline: September 25, 1999.

"http://www.iis.sinica.edu.tw/~eric/cp99-rtc/" A Post-Conference Workshop held after
the 5th International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP'99)

October 16, 1999, Alexandria, Virginia, USA

A CP'99 post-conference international workshop on REAL-TIME CONSTRAINTS is being organized at CP'99. Real-time systems and applications all require stringent timing constraints for correct operation. Such real-time constraints are often difficult to design as well as verify. Varied techniques that deal with real-time constraints have been proposed in various application domains. This workshop will try to find a consensus in the various techniques that appear in different domains related to real-time constraint specification, programming, design, validation, and verification.

All topics related to real-time constraints are invited. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Specification of Real-Time Constraints
  • Formal Methods
  • Modeling of Real-Time Constraints
  • Industrial Techniques
  • Programming of Real-Time Constraints
  • Case Studies
  • Verification of Real-Time Constraints
  • IP / Virtual Components
  • Testing of Real-Time Constraints
  • Embedded Systems
  • Real-Time Constraint Tools
  • Hardware-Software Coverification
  • SUBMISSION OF PAPERS: To submit a paper to the workshop, please do the following:

    1. Prepare a manuscript in either PDF or PostScript format. Manuscripts should be already in camera-ready format: a maximum of 6 pages (A4 or letter), font size 10 pt or 11 pt, single-spaced, double-column, with the first page including paper title, author names, affiliations, e-mail addresses, a maximum 200-word abstract, and at least 5 keywords.
    2. Prepare a cover letter (an ascii-text e-mail) with the paper title, the corresponding author's name, mailing address, e-mail address, and telephone/fax numbers, paper abstract, and keywords.
    3. E-mail the above two to: " eric@iis.sinica.edu.tw". If electronic submission is not possible, please mail the above to the postal address at the end.
    4. Important Dates:

    6. The workshop will span over one full day (October 16, 1999) with paper presentations and group discussions. All submissions will be reviewed by at least 2 referees. Papers must not have been published previously. Only those accepted papers that are presented at the workshop will be published. Workshop proceedings will be published separately from the CP'99 proceedings. Both web publication and hard-cover copies will be made available.
