Overview
========

The RTSEMS (RealTime Service oriented and EMbedded Systems) workshop,
addresses the modelling, implementation and assessment of real-time
and embedded services in software systems. Real-time and embedded
services form the backbone of critical applications where timing,
reliability, and resource efficiency are paramount. Real-time
services, provided by components like Real-Time Operating Systems
(RTOS), task schedulers, and interrupt handlers, ensure tasks are
completed within strict deadlines, making them essential in fields
such as aerospace, automotive, and industrial automation. Embedded
services, including device drivers, middleware, and security services,
optimize hardware interaction and safeguard operations within
resource-constrained environments, prevalent in consumer electronics,
healthcare, and home automation. Together, these services facilitate
seamless integration, robust performance, and dependable
functionality, enabling the creation of sophisticated systems that
drive innovation and maintain operational excellence across diverse
technological landscapes. The 1st edition of the RTSEMS Workshop will
be held in Tunis (Gammarth), Tunisia at the 3rd of December, 2024. It
is one of the workshops of the 21th International Conference on
Service Oriented Computing (ICSOC 2024) https://www.icsoc.org/

Important Dates
===============

Workshop Papers Submission: 13th October 2024
Authors Notification: 30th October 2024
Camera Ready and Registration: 5th November 2024
Workshop Date: 3rd December 2024

Submission and Publication
==========================

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to
another journal, conference or workshop. The following paper
categories are welcome:

- Research papers: 12-page limit, describing original and novel
  research work, including research results and evaluations.The papers
  may present the ongoing research, novel ideas with preliminary
  results, advances of the state of the art, analysis of the current
  results in the state of the art or state of the practice, or
  experience in implementing the theories.

- Industry papers: 8-page limit, This track will be an opportunity for
  people associated with industry and academia to present their novel
  ideas while attracting funding and/or further expand
  collaborations. An important criterion for papers to be submitted to
  the Industry Track is a clear industrial association, either in the
  form of an extensive evaluation of research results in industrial
  use cases or active participation of industry representatives as
  co-authors.

Papers should be formatted according to Springer's LNCS Formatting
Guidelines. Submissions must be in English and must not exceed the
above mentioned limit pages (including abstract, figures and
references). Each paper must be submitted on or before the provided
deadlines. The final submission should be formatted according to
Springer's LNCS Camera ready instructions. All papers must be
submitted electronically, as PDF file using the Easychair platform:
https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=icsoc2024 then by selecting
"Workshop on RealTime Service oriented and EMbedded Systems" track.

If any problem arises when submitting your paper, please contact:
wafa.gabsi at redcad.org

Paper Review
============

Each paper will be reviewed by at least three members of the
international program committee for ensuring high quality. Paper
acceptance will be based on originality, significance, technical
soundness, and clarity of presentation.

All accepted papers will be included in the workshop proceedings
published as part of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS)
series of Springer.

At least one author of an accepted paper must register and participate
in the workshop. Registration is subject to the terms, conditions and
procedure of the main ICSOC conference to be found on their website:
