An exciting program that fosters discussions and technical exchanges is planned, including tutorials, panel discussions, technical paper presentations and work-in-progress sessions on various aspects of real-time computing and communication, ranging from multimedia applications, case studies, systems integration, application requirements, scheduling, operating systems, software engineering, dependability, databases, programming languages, system development tools, communications, performance modeling and formal techniques. The technical program for RTAS'98 is organized into eight sessions, covering various aspects of real-time systems technology and applications: namely Scheduling, Design Methodologies and Architectures, Operating Systems and Middleware, QoS Paradigms, Specification and Verification, Communication Systems, Databases and Information Systems, and Experiences and Case Studies. In addition to these eigth technical sessions, this year's RTAS program features two tutorials on Real-Time Java, by Kelvin Nielsen, and on Real-Time CORBA, by Douglas Schmidt. These tutorials will expose symposium attendees to the efforts undertaken by industry and standards committees to enable the use of real-time technologies in many of the emerging distributed applications (including Internet and Electronic Commerce). These two tutorials are complemented by a special panel organized by Mike Jones, featuring invited talks about the use of Off-The-Shelf (OTS) components to build real-time systems. Last but not least, this year's RTAS will include special Work-In-Progress (WIP) sessions, organized by Sue Nagy. These sessions will feature a number of short technical presentations to elicit the community's feedback on and interest in on-going research projects and system building efforts.

Attendance of these tutorials is open to all those registered for RTAS'98. PERC Real-Time Extensions for Java Dr. Kelvin Nielsen, NewMonics Inc. Wed June 3, 1998 / 13:30 - 15:30 Though Java was originally designed for embedded systems development, the language and typical implementations lack support for real-time programming. PERC is a standard set of Java extensions that empower programmers with the ability to write portable real-time software components. Each real-time activity encodes its own real-time requirements in terms of periodic CPU time, total live memory, and memory allocation rate. During the startup phase of a real-time activity, the activity negotiates with the PERC executive for system resource budgets. Once the budgets have been granted, the PERC executive enforces them. This approach allows portable deployment of reliable real-time activities. The tutorial discusses issues relevant to the design and implementation of the PERC real-time extensions and teaches participants how to write real-time Java applications using the PERC extensions. Dr. Nilsen completed his Ph.D. at the University of Arizona in 1988. He worked 8 years as a faculty member and scientist at Iowa State University, focusing his research efforts on high-level language support for real-time programming. He left Iowa State University in June of 1996 to work full time for NewMonics, a company that he founded for the purpose of commercializing real-time Java technologies. Dr. Nilsen holds three patents and a number of pending patents in the areas of real-time garbage collection and real-time programming methodologies. Patterns and Performance of Real-time Object Request Brokers Dr. Douglas C. Schmidt, Washington University, St. Louis Friday June 5, 1998 / 13:30 - 15:30 The Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) defines a flexible model for distributed object computing. However, the CORBA specification and conventional Object Request Broker (ORB) implementations lack key features required by real-time applications. This talk describes the principles, design patterns, implementation techniques, and optimizations necessary to develop real-time CORBA ORBs that can meet end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. Portions of this material is based on the presenter's extensive experience developing and applying real-time ORBs for avionics and telecommunications projects at Boeing, Siemens, Sprint, and Motorola. Source code, documentation, and technical papers on real-time CORBA are available at Dr. Schmidt is an Assistant Professor of Department of Computer Science and the Department of Radiology at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. His research focuses on design patterns, implementation, and experimental analysis of object-oriented frameworks that facilitate the development of high-performance, real-time distributed object computing systems on parallel processing platforms running over high-speed ATM networks. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Conference Registration ----------------------- Mail to: Ms. Linda Buss Phone: 715-235-0487 RTAS'98 Fax: (715) 235-2258 or (715) 232-6244 E3774 - 550th Ave. Email: ljbuss@win.bright.net Menomonie, WI 54751 USA Name: ____________________________________________ Affiliation: ________________________________________ Address: __________________________________________ __________________________________________ Phone: ____________ Fax: __________________________ Email: ______________________________________________ IEEE Membership No: _______________________________ Fee Schedule ------------ RTAS'98 Registration (Early: by May 20) (Late: after May 20) IEEE Members $375 $425 Non-Members $475 $550 Full-time Students $175 $225 DARE'98 Registration (Early: by May 20) (Late: after May 20) IEEE Members $100 $125 Non-Members $120 $150 Full-time Students $100 $125 Registration can be done through electronic mail.

'98-- Guest Editors: F. Cristian and C. Fetzer UC San Diego Co-published by The British Computer Society, The Institution of Electrical Engineers and The Institute of Physics Publishing The Distributed Systems Engineering Journal (DSEJ) is planning a special issue on dependable distributed systems. Papers are sought in all aspects of dependable distributed systems, including, but not limited to: 1) Algorithms and techniques for fault-tolerant, real-time, secure, distributed systems 2) Critical application areas such as transportation and medical systems, process and power industries 3) Practical experience reports Important Dates Nov. 30, 1998: Submission Deadline June 30, 1999: Acceptance Notification Aug. 15, 1999: Final Manuscript Deadline Prospective authors may access instructions for submissions and an html version of this Call for Papers at: http://www.cs.ucsd.edu/~cfetzer/dsej.html Scope of the Distributed Systems Engineering Journal The area of interest of this journal centers on the integration of processing, storage and communication subsystems within a distributed or networked system. The emphasis is on distributed rather than parallel processing and on practical engineering papers rather than theoretical approaches. Hence it particularly welcomes papers from industry and those which are based on implementation experience. Distributed Processing Distributed processing architecture Distributed operating systems and environments Standards and open distributed processing (ODP) Configuration and management of distributed systems Computer architecture support for distributed processing Language support for distributed processing Algorithms and protocols to support distributed processing Computer Networks Local, metropolitan and wide area networks Network architectures and protocols Network management Communications and network standards Open networking and open systems interconnection (OSI) Multiservice networks Storage and Databases Data modeling Distributed data bases Distributed transaction processing Information retrieval and transformation Object stores Information and file servers Hypermedia systems Information Systems & Applications Distributed multimedia systems Advanced home, business and industrial systems Computer support for cooperative work Distributed programming support environments User Interface design These four main areas would be linked by consideration of system dependability, fault tolerance, security, performance engineering, timeliness or other architectural issues.
