Researchers in these areas are addressing many similar problems, but with different backgrounds and approaches. LCT-RTS is intended to expose researchers from either area to relevant work and interesting problems in the other area and provide a forum where they can interact. Until recently real-time systems development was performed by experienced specialists using a variety of custom kernels, non- standard languages, and vendor-specific device interfaces. System integration involved a complicated process of obtaining timing measurements, hand-tuning code, and re-measuring. These ad-hoc techniques do not scale well for modern systems. Also, the majority of real-time developers is no longer composed of embedded control experts. New software approaches are needed to support these new systems and provide appropriate tools for real- time programmers. Original submissions are invited in all areas relevant to this theme. Appropriate topics include (but are not restricted to) the following aspects of real-time systems. * Programming languages for real-time applications * Real-time design, specification, analysis * Exception & interrupt handling for real-time * Timing analysis: static & dynamic * Program optimization for real-time performance * Real-time profiling, measurement, & debugging * Real-time scheduling analysis * Real-time memory management & garbage collection * Language support for imprecise computation * Real-time on RISCs: caches, pipelines, windows * Real-time system integration & testing * Support for partitioning, mapping, & compression Papers should report new research and should not exceed 5000 words (approximately 10 typeset on 16-point spacing, or 15 typewritten double-spaced pages). Short papers that describe existing implementations or work-in-progress, or outline new problems or important issues are also welcome. Short papers should not exceed 3000 words (6 pages). All accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and published in the proceedings, which will be distributed at the workshop.
