The IEEE/IFIP International Workshop on Rapid System Prototyping (RSP) explores trends in Rapid Product Development of Computer Based Systems. Its scope ranges from formal methods for the verification of software and hardware systems to case studies of actual software and hardware systems. It aims to bring together researchers from the hardware and software communities to share their experiences and to foster collaboration of new and innovative Science and Technology. The 19th annual symposium’s focus will encompass theoretical and practical methodologies, resolving technologies of specification, completeness, dynamics of change, technology insertion, complexity, integration, and time to market. Submission of industrial research is welcome. Keynote presentations and formal paper sessions will provide baseline knowledge for discussion and group integration. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Integration models for hardware-intensive and/or software intensive systems
  • Interoperability of distributed systems
  • Integrated telecommunication systems
  • Very large scale system engineering
  • Specification and language models for hardware/software systems
  • Methodologies and tools for hardware and software intensive systems
  • Software/Configware/Hardware codesign and tradeoffs
  • System verification/validation
  • Prototypes in engineering processes
  • FPGAs in system prototyping and emulation
  • Domain-specific models for prototyping
  • Prototyping of embedded/real-time systems
  • Virtual prototyping of physical systems
  • Prototype to product transition
  • Prototyping case studies
  • Reconfigurable products or systems
  • Simulation & Prototyping of Application-specific Systems-on-Chip

For years, extended versions of best papers are proposed to be published in special issues of prestigious journals (Design and Automation for Embedded Systems in 1999, IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering in 2000, Journal of Systems and Software in 2001, Design and Automation for Embedded Systems in 2002). A special issue of IEEE Distributed Systems Online is being elaborated from best papers of RSP'2006. This strategy will be continued. The authors of the best papers of RSP'07 will be invited to submit an extended version for a Special Issue on Rapid System Prototyping of the ACM Transactions in Embedded Computing Systems (TECS).

Papers

The program committee invites authors to submit full papers. Papers should clearly describe the nature of the work, explain its significance, highlight its novel features, and state its current status. Authors of selected papers will be requested to prepare a manuscript for the symposium proceedings. Paper length should not exceed 7 pages in the standard IEEE format. Submission instructions as well as templates can be found in the RSP web site (see bottom of this CFP).

A special session will be dedicated to the discussion of new, unpublished ongoing work. Authors may submit a 3 page paper in IEEE format. Selected contributions will be published in the proceedings and a dedicated session with posters will be organized.

  • Paper registration: January 12, 2008 (extended) :
    only title, authors, email contact and abstract are required via the web site
  • Paper submission: January 21, 2008 (extended) :
    full paper in pdf or ps format
  • Notification of Acceptance: March 5, 2008
  • Final Camera Ready Manuscript due: April 1, 2008
