Fifth Workshop On Real-Time Software and Operating Systems May 12-13 1988 Omni-Shoreham Hotel Washington, DC Sponsored by The IEEE Computer Society The USENIX Association This year's workshop broadens the scope to include general real-time systems. This workshop will bring together researchers, designers, and implementers of real-time operating systems and software. There will be a substantial emphasis on practical experience, so workers from industrial organizations are encouraged to attend. Topics of specific interest include: Primary requirements of real-time systems Distributed real-time operating systems Application-specific operating systems Practical experiences and implications Exotic applications: medicine, music, etc. Architectural support for real-time Language, programming support, and reusability Types of real-time constraints Scheduling and resource management Predictability, adaptability, and maintainability Reliability and fault tolerance Instrumentation and performance measurement Case studies The format of the workshop will be geared to encourage intense technical interactions and focussed discussions. Attendance will be limited to between 75 and 100 active workers in the field. In order to participate in the workshop, you must submit four copies of an extended abstract or position paper of up to 5 pages describing your current efforts to Lui Sha by March 1, 1988 . The abstract should focus on insights and lessons gained from recent research and practical experience. Complete details regarding the workshop will be sent to all participants along with the acceptance letters by March 21, 1988. A digest of accepted abstracts will be made available to participants at the workshop.

The closing date for submissions to the IEEE/USENIX Fifth Workshop On Real-Time Software and Operating Systems is near! The Workshop will be held May 12-13 1988 at the Omni-Shoreham Hotel Washington, DC You *must* submit an abstract to attend! This is DIFFERENT from other, USENIX only, workshops. Donner tells me he'll accept abstracts via e-mail. I'm interested in getting a good USENIX showing in this first, cooperative effort. This year's workshop broadens the scope to include general real-time systems. This workshop will bring together researchers, designers, and implementers of real-time operating systems and software. Workers from industrial organizations are especially encouraged to attend. The format of the workshop will be geared to encourage intense technical interactions and focussed discussions. Attendance will be limited to between 75 and 100 active workers in the field. To participate in the workshop, please submit four copies of an extended abstract or position paper of up to 5 pages describing your current efforts to either of the Program Chairmen by March 1, 1988. The abstract should focus on insights and lessons gained from recent research and practical experience. Program Co-chair Dr. Marc D. Donner IBM Research P.O.
