Scope:


The 1st workshop on Real-Time Mixed Criticality Systems (ReTiMiCS
2013) will be a workshop to discuss real-time mixed criticality
systems with one keynote and thematic sessions. The format of this
workshop encourages interaction between participants to promote a
spirit of co-operation and collaboration within the real-time
scheduling community. Mixed Criticality Systems (MiCS) are new
systems trying to combine safety-critical and consumer systems on the
same platform. Consumer market redefines embedded systems and is
source of hardware evolutions (multi-core, many-core systems,
distributed systems). Safety-critical systems (automotive, aerospace)
should take advantage of those new platforms to produce robust and
predictable systems at competitive price. Safety-critical and consumer
application are usually run on distinct systems. Research on
Mixed-Criticality Systems aims at closing the gap between those two
systems.

Keynote Speaker:


A keynote speech on Mixed Criticality Systems will be given by Sanjoy
Baruah, University of North Carolina, USA.


Topics:


Research challenges for MiCS are numerous. Among them, this workshop
invites submissions in the areas such as, but not limited to:

* Integration of critical and non critical applications on real-time multiprocessor systems.
New concepts for hardware/software architectures (hypervisor, operating systems, schedulability
conditions, formal methods, ...)

* High performance computing with MiCs. By-pass Moore's law by handling power consumption,
heat dissipation limitations. Cache scheduling and related issues (CRPD), parallel scheduling,
3D architectures.

* Security and dependability issues with MiCS. How to conceive systems of different criticality
having to cooperate ?

* Application of MiCS to new domains: mobile telecommunication networks,
energy management systems, sensor networks with messages of different criticalities

* Data Management in shared memory used for mixed critical applications.


Submission Details:

Authors of accepted papers are expected to give a presentation of
their papers during the workshop. Instructions for preparing final
copy and presentations will be given when the paper is accepted. The
workshop will also include a keynote speaker (to be announced).
