Call for Papers: MIKES 2006
First International Workshop on MicroKernels for Embedded Systems
* Deadline extended and minor change to submission procedure. *
to be held on August 15 2006
in Sydney, Australia
co-located with the 12th IEEE RTCSA
Microkernels and microkernel-based operating systems are experiencing
an increased popularity in the field of embedded systems. Despite a
period of low popularity a decade ago, there is a new realisation, in
academia and industry, of the usefulness of microkernels. This is
especially true in the embedded systems domain where the reduced size
and increased dependability of microkernel-based systems have made
them particularly attractive. The MIKES workshop will bring together
researchers and developers from industry and academia to discuss
* emerging novel concepts,
* analysis approaches, and
* case studies
in the area of microkernels.
MIKES 2006 seeks papers that describe original research in the area of
microkernels. This includes but is not limited to:
* case studies
* real-time behaviour
* temporal analysis
* formal/functional verification
* portability
* API proposals
* security and safety
Papers describing new ideas, promising approaches, experiences with
practical systems are considered particularly appropriate. Papers will
be 6 pages in IEEE conference paper format. The material must be
unpublished and not under submission elsewhere. Proceedings will be
published as a technical report by National ICT Australia (NICTA).
Submission Procedure
Papers and abstracts should be submitted electronically at
http://www.easychair.org/MIKES2006/. Papers can be in PDF or
postscript format.
* Pre-submission of abstracts is required. *
Abstracts are submitted by ticking the "Abstract Only" box at the
bottom of the new submission form. Updated abstracts and papers
themselves are submitted by updating the original submission.
Note: Extension to deadlines
