Deadline: 12, Nov, 2008

The International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Real-Time Systems is a forum for the presentation and discussion of approaches, research findings, and experiences in the area of parallel and distributed real-time systems. The ultimate goal is to envision new trends and ideas about theoretical and practical aspects of designing, implementing, and evaluating future real-time system platforms for next generation of computing applications. Both research and development of relevant technologies are of interest, as well as the applications built using such technologies. This year’s one-day workshop will feature special and invited sessions that highlight industry-related advances and challenges in real-time systems.
