DEM 2014 - 2nd International Workshop on Distributed Embedded Systems (DEM 2014)

The tremendous advances in communication technologies and embedded systems have created an entirely new research field in both academia and industry for distributed embedded software development. This field introduces constrained systems into distributed software development. The implementation of limitations like real-time requirements, power limitations, memory constraints,... within a distributed environment require the introduction of new software development processes, software development techniques and software architectures. It is obvious that these new methodologies will play an key role in future networked embedded systems. In order to facilitate these processes, further progress of the research and engineering on distributed embedded systems is mandatory. The aim of this workshop is to bring together practitioners and researchers from both academia and industry in order to have a forum for discussion and technical presentations on the current research and future research directions related to this hot scientific area. Topics include (but are not limited to) the following:
Topics
Virtualization on embedded systems
Model based embedded software development
Real-time in the cloud
Internet of things
Distributed safety concepts
Embedded software for (mechatronics, automotive, healthcare, energy, telecom, ...)
Sensor fusion
Embedded multicore software
Distributed localisation
Distributed embedded software development
Testing
