EMSOFT 2021
Call for Papers
International Conference on Embedded Software
October 10 – October 15, 2021, Virtual Conference
=========================================================================

The ACM SIGBED International Conference on Embedded Software (EMSOFT)
brings together researchers and developers from academia, industry,
and government to advance the science, engineering, and technology of
embedded software development. Since 2001, EMSOFT has been the premier
venue for cutting-edge research in the design and analysis of software
that interacts with physical processes. Specifically, the conference
has a long-standing tradition of presenting results on cyber-physical
systems, which integrate computation, networking, and physical dynamics.

Topics of Interests / Tracks
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Submissions are invited on all aspects of embedded software systems,
including but not limited to:
• Embedded software design and analysis
• Formal modeling and verification
• Testing, validation, and certification
• Model- and component-based approaches
• Embedded operating systems and middleware
• Embedded distributed, networked systems
• Embedded software on multi- and many-core processors
• Safety-critical and mixed-critical embedded software design
• Time-critical embedded systems
• Scheduling, resource allocation, and execution time analysis
• QoS management and performance analysis
• Energy-efficient embedded software
• Embedded software security
• Embedded software architectures for data-intensive applications
and signal processing
• Software design for cyber-physical systems
• Robust implementation of control systems
• Hardware and software design for safe autonomy
• Empirical studies and their reproduction
• Application areas including automotive, avionics, energy, health care,
mobile devices, multimedia, machine learning, and autonomous systems

Papers should represent original work, not formerly published or submitted
for publication in other forums. A double-blind review process will be
enforced. Authors should not reveal authorship directly or indirectly
through references.

EMSOFT 2021 will follow a two-stage review process for the journal track,
where papers passing the first stage of reviews will be asked to revise
their work based on reviewer comments within a short time frame of around
two weeks. Accepted papers in the second stage will appear in ACM TECS.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Journal-Integrated Publication Model
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
EMSOFT 2021 has a dual publication model with two tracks: Journal track
papers will be published in the ACM Transactions on Embedded Computing
Systems (TECS) and Work-in-Progress track papers will be published in
the ESWEEK Proceedings. See details at
