UPDATES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
* WiP submission deadline extended by one week to June 12:
The WIP papers will be published in the ESWEEK proceedings and made
available through the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. The authors of each
accepted WIP paper will get the opportunity of a 5-minute presentation
and participation in an online Q&A during the virtual conference.

* ESWEEK is going virtual:
In light of the continued uncertainty surrounding the Covid-19 situation,
the safety and well-being of all the conference participants is our
topmost priority. Therefore, the ESWEEK Steering Committee has decided
to move to a virtual event format for this year to be held from Sept.
20-25. The 2020 paper review, WiP submission and acceptance processes
will proceed normally. We are heartened by a more than 50% increase in
number of submitted papers at ESWEEK this year that shows the resilience
of our community. We will follow up with further details on conference
registration, presentation formats, special sessions and tutorials.
* In view of the unprecedented Covid-19 situation, the full paper
submission is extended by one week. Note that the abstract submission
deadline remains unchanged.
* The submission template changed from ACM to the IEEE template. Updated
instructions for manuscript preparation are available at
https://www.esweek.org/author-information
* Call for PhD Student Forum released:
https://www.esweek.org/phd-student-forum-esweek-2020
* Due to the current Covid-19 virus situation, the venues for ESWEEK 2020
and 2021 were swapped. ESWEEK 2020 will now be held in Hamburg, Germany
from September 20-25.

About Embedded Systems Week (ESWEEK)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Embedded Systems Week (ESWEEK) is the premier event covering all
aspects of hardware and software design for smart, intelligent and
connected computing systems. By bringing together three leading
conferences (CASES, CODES+ISSS, EMSOFT), one symposium (NOCS), and
several workshops and tutorials, ESWEEK allows attendees to benefit
from a wide range of topics covering the state of the art in embedded
systems research and development.

https://esweek.org/sites/default/files/ESWEEK_2020_CFP.pdf

Registered attendees can attend sessions in any of the ESWEEK
conferences (CASES, CODES+ISSS, EMSOFT). Please note that tutorials,
symposium (NOCS), and workshops may require separate registration.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Paper Process
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
ESWEEK 2020 continues a dual publication model comprising the Journal
track and the Work-in-Progress (WiP) track. Journal track papers, which
are full-length papers describing mature work, will be published in the
IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and
Systems (TCAD). The WiP track papers, which are short (2-page) papers
representing not-yet-mature but promising research, will be published in
the ESWEEK proceedings and will be listed as regular publications within
the IEEE and/or ACM digital libraries. Authors of WiP papers have the
opportunity to publish the extended form of their work in any conference
or journal they prefer. Journal and WiP papers are mutually exclusive,
i.e., a work can only be in submission in one of the two tracks.

CASES: International Conference on Compilers, Architectures,
and Synthesis for Embedded Systems
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
CASES is a premier forum where researchers, developers and practitioners
exchange information on the latest advances in compilers and
architectures for high-performance, low-power embedded systems. The
conference has a long tradition of showcasing leading edge research in
embedded processor, memory, interconnect, storage architectures and
related compiler techniques targeting performance, power, predictability,
security, reliability issues for both traditional and emerging application
domains. In addition, we invite innovative papers that address design,
synthesis, and optimization challenges in heterogeneous and accelerator-
rich architectures.

CODES+ISSS: International Conference on Hardware/Software Codesign
and System Synthesis
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The International Conference on Hardware/Software Codesign and System
Synthesis is the premier event in system-level design, modeling,
analysis, and implementation of modern embedded and cyber-physical
systems, from system-level specification and optimization down to system
synthesis of multi-processor hardware/software implementations. The
conference is a forum bringing together academic research and industrial
practice for all aspects related to system-level and hardware/software
co-design.

EMSOFT: International Conference on Embedded Software
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
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, with a long-standing tradition
for results on cyber-physical systems, which compose computation,
networking, and physical dynamics.

Special Day on Trustworthy Internet-of-Things
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Internet of Things (IoT) promises to revolutionize the world by
connecting the Internet to physical things. Trust, security, and privacy
are central to the achievement of the IoT vision: advanced computation,
communication, and storage must be delivered in a safe, secure, and
reliable manner. Trustworthy IoT special day will provide a forum for
academia and industry to present and discuss innovative ideas and
solutions related to all facets of trustworthy internet-of-things.
Submissions to the Trust-worthy IoT day are via the three conferences.
