Workshop objectives

 

The increasing range and complexity of automotive applications, the need to master development costs using off-the-shelf components, the coexistence of critical and non-critical applications, and the emergence of new architectural paradigms may have a strong impact on dependability of automotive embedded systems. This situation calls for novel design and validation methods, but also tools to improve the robustness of automotive systems and their safety properties. The evolution of automotive systems is currently supported by standards (like AUTOSAR and ISO26262) that respectively advocate a software architecture but also recommend specific development approaches.

 

The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners interested in the design, implementation and operation of critical automotive applications and systems. Particular emphasis will be put on dependability issues, software engineering for robustness, security and safety issues, real time embedded systems technologies, architectural solutions and development processes for dependable automotive embedded systems.

 

Topics of interest for the workshop include (but are not limited to):


Primary application areas of interest to the workshop focus on the automotive domain. However, methods and techniques developed in other fields of application of critical embedded systems (e.g., avionics, railways, space, etc.) can be of interest for the automotive domain.

Submission information

 

To contribute to the workshop, authors are invited to submit a position paper of no more than 4 pages (10-pt font, single space, double-column format). Please see proceedings templates here  http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates for instructions.

The program committee will carefully review each position paper. The review will focus not only on the paper's quality but also on its novelty and ability to engender fruitful discussions. All authors of accepted position papers are invited to attend the workshop. Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their paper will be presented at the workshop.

 

The papers accepted  and presented at the workshop will be published 

in a workshop volume of the ACM Digital Library with the ISBN 978-1-60558-915-2.
