Submission date in few days --------------------------- Full Paper submission deadline: April 15, 2011 Notification of acceptance (for presentation): April 20, 2011 Early Registration deadline: April 25, 2011 FOPARA workshop: May 19, 2011 Submission for formal review deadline: July 8, 2011 Notification of acceptance (for LNCS): September 16, 2011 Camera ready paper: October 7th, 2011 Invited Speaker --------------- Reinhard Wilhelm (Universitat des Saarlandes) Timing Analysis and Timing Predictability I will describe our approach to compute safe and precise upper bounds on execution times for real-time programs. The required effort and the precision of the results depends strongly on the characteristics of the execution platform. Increasing the precision and reducing the effort is easy if performance is of no concern. However, the ultimate goal is to design architectures that offer a good combination of performance and predictability. I will present an overview of existing results in this research area. Scope ----- The 2nd International Workshop on Foundational and Practical Aspects of Resource Analysis (FOPARA 2011) will be held at the Computer Science Faculty of Complutense University of Madrid. It will be co-located with the 12th International Symposium Trends in Functional Programming, TFP 2011 (http://dalila.sip.ucm.es/tfp11/). The workshop will serve as a forum for presenting original research results that are relevant to the analysis of resource (time, space, and others) consumption by computer programs. The workshop aims to bring together the researchers that work on foundational issues with the researchers that focus more on practical results. Therefore, both theoretical and practical contributions are encouraged. We also encourage papers that combine theory and practice. Topics ------ The following list of topics is non-exhaustive: * resource static analysis for embedded or/and critical systems * logical and machine-independent characterisations of complexity classes * logics closely related to complexity classes * type systems for controlling/inferring/checking complexity * semantic methods to analyse resources, including quasi- and sup-interpretations, * practical applications of resource analysis. Submissions ----------- FOPARA 2011 is a two-phase workshop. All participants are invited to submit a draft paper describing the work to be presented at the workshop. These submissions will be screened by the program committee chair to make sure they are within the scope of FOPARA and will appear in the draft proceedings distributed at the workshop. Submissions appearing in the draft proceedings are not peer-reviewed publications. After the workshop, authors will be given the opportunity to incorporate the feedback from discussions at the workshop and will be invited to submit a revised full article for the formal review process. These revised submissions will be reviewed by the program committee using prevailing academic standards to select the best articles that will appear in the formal proceedings. All contributions must be written in English, conform to the Springer LNCS series format and not exceed 16 pages. The draft proceedings will appear as a technical report of the Computer Science Department of Complutense University of Madrid. The papers selected after the reviewing process will be published as a volume of the Springer LNCS series. Program Committee ----------------- . Puri Arenas (Complutense University of Madrid, ES) .
