--------------------------------------------------------------------
Preliminary CALL FOR PAPERS
--------------------------------------------------------------------
9th IEEE International Workshop on Factory Communication Systems
COMMUNICATION in AUTOMATION (WFCS 2012)
May 21 - 24, 2012, Lemgo/Detmold, Germany
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Conference web site: http://www.init-owl.de/wfcs2012/
--------------------------------------------------------------------
SCOPE:
The WFCS workshop is the largest IEEE technical event specially
dedicated to industrial communication systems. The aim of this
workshop is to provide a forum for researchers, practitioners and
developers to review current trends in this area and to present
and discuss new ideas and new research directions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
FOCUS ON:

- Real-time and Dependability in Industrial Communication Systems:
message scheduling; task allocation; fault-tolerant communication;
performance analysis; safety and security issues; synchronization.

- System Integration in Industrial Automation Systems:
vertical and life-cycle aspects, web-based setup, maintenance,
and configuration; transparency vs. security; data-flow management;
internetworking; hybrid wired/wireless industrial infrastructures.

- Information and Communication Technology in Automation:
system design; component-based systems, web frameworks; mobile
computing; modelling and specification techniques; formal methods.

- Recent advances in research domains with similar technical requirements:
networked control systems; wireless sensor networks; building automation
networks; automotive and train-control networks; distributed real-time
embedded systems.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
WORKSHOP TOPICS:
Fieldbus networks Real-time communication and applications
Industrial Ethernet networks Web-based communication and applications
IP-based networks Distributed application platforms
Industrial wireless networks Safety & security in industrial communications
Networked embedded systems Fault-tolerance in industrial communications
Sensor networks Configuration tools & network management
Building automation networks Internetworking & interoperability
Automotive and train-control networks System aspects
Factory and Process automation networks Case studies
--------------------------------------------------------------------
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS: The WFCS workshop is seeking two kinds of submissions. All
submitted contributions (in English language) must contain original unpublished
work. Papers that have been concurrently submitted to other conferences or
journals (double submissions) will be automatically rejected.

REGULAR PAPERS: Up to 10 double-column pages in IEEE format,
reporting on novel and significant contributions to the field of
industrial communication systems.

WORK-IN-PROGRESS PAPERS: Up to 4 double-column pages, describing research
that has not yet produced the results required for a regular paper, but that
due its novelty and potential impact deserves to be shared with the community
at an early stage.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
AUTHOR'S SCHEDULE:
Deadline for submission of regular papers: December 9, 2011
Notification of acceptance of regular papers: February 3, 2012
Deadline for submission of work-in-progress papers: February 10, 2012
Notification of acceptance of work-in-progress papers: March 5, 2012
Deadline for submission of final manuscripts (regular,WIP): March 12, 2012
