Following the meetings of academics, developers and users of real-time and embedded Linux at the previous 17 real-time Linux workshops held world-wide - the  Real-Time Linux Workshop for 2017 will come back to the Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic, and is held from October 19th to 20th, 2017 followed by the [[realtime:events:rt-summit2017:start|Real-Time Linux Summit 2017]], a discussion focused single track event on October 21st.

Real Time systems have evolved over the past decades in a relatively calm manner - performance has increased, one can say dramatically, but the  main  paradigms  were  pretty  stable since the mid 80s. This has changed  now.  With  the  real-time  PREEMPT_RT  patch set moving into mainline there  is nothing left to do - all  problems solved... or not quite yet.

Developing a rigorous theory is important - relating these to reality is equally important. This is where  CTU's research group has much experience to offer. The focus on system properties be it real-time or security and extending this into functional safety in the past years,form a good background for hosting this gathering of real-life systems developers.

Research interests of our host, Prof. Hanzalek and his group, focus, among others, on:
  * Real-time systems and networking
  * Combinatorial optimization and time-triggered scheduling
  * Autonomous cars and other automotive applications
  * Open-source (not "only" GNU/Linux)

FLOSS in embedded systems is well established, ranging from consumer electronics to network devices and increasingly industrial applications including safety related systems.  The technological resources suitable for high-availability, real-time, and safety critical systems have been continuously expanding and improving - allowing to cover the entire development life cycle of industrial projects based on Open-Source tools.

At the core of this development is the availability of stable operating systems with reliable real-time properties.  Extending and improving these real-time properties of open-source RTOS is continuous research and development effort that OSADL documents in the form of the  annual  Real Time Linux Workshop together with Linux Foundation's annual Real-Time Linux Summit.

The below call for paper exclusively refers to the Real Time Linux Workshop. The Real-Time Linux Summit is an add-on event to RTLWS held on Oct. 21st, focused on the real-time preemption patch set and the activities around it, which has a separate [[realtime:events:rt-summit2017:cfp|Call for Presentations]].

Authors from regulatory bodies, academics, industry as well as the user-community are invited to submit original work dealing with general topics related to open-source and free-software based real-time systems research, experiments and case studies, as well as issues of integration of open-source real-time and embedded OS. A special focus will be on industrial case studies and safety related systems.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
  * FLOSS based real-time system solutions
  * Modifications and variants of the GNU/Linux operating system extending its real-time capabilities
  * Contributions to real-time Linux variants, drivers and extensions
  * Tools for the verification and validation of real-time properties
  * User-mode real-time concepts, implementation and experience
  * Real-time Linux applications, in academia, research and industry
  * Safety related FLOSS systems
  * Work in progress reports, covering recent developments
  * Educational material on real-time Linux
  * RTOS core concepts, synchronization, IPC mechanisms or resource allocators.
  * Analysis and Benchmarking methods and results of real-time FLOSS and GNU/Linux variants including comparisons
  * Debugging techniques and tools, both for code and temporal debugging of core RTOS components, drivers  and real-time applications
  * Real-time related extensions to development environments
  * Real-time and virtualization
  
We invite you to either submit an abstract as proposal for a Work-in-Progress (WiP) or an abstract as proposal for a full paper. Authors of WiP presentations will get the opportunity to present their work in a 30-minute talk, authors of a full paper will be awarded with a 60-minute time slot. When submitting an abstract as proposal for a full paper authors confirm that they are willing to prepare a paper adhering to the form defined by the [[https://www.osadl.org/paper.tgz|paper template]] upon acceptance of the proposal and to submit it meeting the paper submission deadline given below. A detailed  description of the editing and formatting process will be provided along with the acceptance notification email. The full paper will be included in the RTLWS18 proceedings.

__Important dates__

  * June 2, 2017 Abstract submission deadline
  * July 14, 2017 Notification of acceptance
  * October 6, 2017, Final paper submission deadline (full paper proposals)

Please submit your abstract proposal using the [[https://www.osadl.org/RTLWS-Submission|submission page]]
