4th IEEE International Workshop on
Component-Based Design of
Resource-Constrained Systems
CORCS 2012

http://compsac.cs.iastate.edu/workshop_details.php?id=55&y=

Izmir, Turkey, July 16 – July 20, 2012
(in conjunction with COMPSAC 2012)
..........................................................

Aims and Scope
--------------
The aim of this workshop is to discuss but also advance the
state-of-the-art, research and development in the area of resource
aware systems, and to promote the study of both fundamental
and practical aspects of component based design of such systems.
Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings of
COMPSAC 2012, by the IEEE Computer Society Press.
Any submission whose content is relevant to the area of resource-aware system design will be considered, but any submission whose subject matter is related to one of the following topics will be particularly welcome:

• Modeling and Specifying Resource-aware Systems
- models for software components and component interaction: real-time, safety-critical, embedded, or mobile systems
- specification of extra-functional properties of components
- resource models
- componentization of legacy code
- certification of components and software architectures
- service-oriented architectures

• Analysis Techniques
- formal techniques for verification and validation of component software: model-checking, abstraction, code synthesis, testing, monitoring, debugging, model extraction
- static analysis techniques
- compositional theories of refinement
- resource-usage impact on quality of service (QoS) attributes

• Platform-aware Design
- run-time mechanisms and middleware
- scheduling and resource management
- component-driven hardware-software co-design

• Tools and Case-studies
- applications, experience reports and case studies in component software
- tools for resource-constrained system development
