ICESS 2010 - The 7th IEEE International Conference on Embedded Software and Systems (ICESS 2010)

Embedded systems are closely related to our daily life, which reside from smart appliances to unmanned trains. As the fastest growing industry, embedded systems will have great societal and environmental impacts. Therefore, the design and implementation of safe and efficient embedded software and systems have utmost importance.

The 7th IEEE International Conferences on Embedded Software and Systems (ICESS-10) will be held in Bradford, United Kingdom. Bradford is a city and metropolitan borough in West Yorkshire, England. Bradford has a population of 497,400, making it the fourth-most populous metropolitan borough and the sixth-most populous local authority district in the UK. The city is often cited as one of the prime examples of 'parallel communities', where the population is effectively segregated along ethnic, cultural and faith lines.

The goal of ICESS-10 is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers and researchers to discuss and exchange novel ideas, results, experiences and work-in-process on all aspects of embedded software and systems.
