RTCSA 2020 : IEEE International Conference on Embedded and Real-Time Computing Systems and Applications

The 26th IEEE International Conference on Embedded and Real-Time Computing Systems and Applications

Location: Virtual Conference
Date: August 19-21, 2020
Important Dates:

Paper Submission Deadline (extended):April 14, 2020, March 31, 2020
Paper Update Deadline: April 17, 2020
Acceptance Notification: May 20, 2020
Final Paper Submission: June 15, 2020
Conference Date: August 19-21, 2020

The RTCSA conference series (now at its 26th edition) brings together researchers and developers from academia and industry for advancing the technology and the theory to design and develop time-sensitive applications. All traditional applications in which temporal aspects need to be considered are in the scope of the conference. CPS, (Industrial) IoT, embedded systems, fog/edge/cloud computing are just notable examples. RTCSA welcomes both research and industrial papers that describe research or technical aspects in the area of embedded and real-time systems. Proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society on IEEExplore and will be indexed by most search engines including Scopus, Web of Science, DBLP.

Submission of a paper should be regarded as a commitment that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register and attend the conference to present the work. RTCSA 2020 reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from the digital library and indexing services), if the paper is not presented at the conference.

Topic of Interest

The 26th edition of RTCSA will bring together researchers and developers from academia and industry to promote cross-fertilization and discuss advances and trends in the technology of embedded and real-time systems and their emerging applications, including the Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems.
