SIES 2015 - 10th IEEE International Symposium on Industrial Embedded Systems

Application domains have had a considerable impact on the evolution of embedded systems, in terms of requiredmethodologies and supporting tools and resulting technologies. SoCs are slowly making inroads in to the area of industrial automation to
implement complex field-area intelligent devices which integrate the intelligent sensor/actuator functionality by providing on-chip signal onversion, data processing, and communication functions. There is a growing tendency to network field-area intelligent devices around ndustrial type of communication networks. Similar trends appear in the automotive electronic systems where the Electronic Control Units ECUs), typically implemented as heterogeneous system-on-chip, are networked by means of one of safety-critical communication protocols.
Aim
The aim of the symposium is to bring together researchers and practitioners from industry and academia and provide them with a platform to report on recent developments, deployments, technology trends and research results, as well as initiatives related to embedded systems and their applications in a variety of industrial environments.
Topics include, but are not limited to:

Submission of Papers
Manuscripts must be submitted electronically in PDF format, according to the instructions contained in the Conference web site. Contributions must contain original unpublished work. Papers that have been concurrently submitted to other conferences or journals (double submissions) will be automatically rejected. Papers are to be submitted electronically in PDF format.
Two types of submissions are solicited: Long Papers - from 6 to 10 double-column pages (typically 8 pages). Work-in-Progress Papers - limited to 4 double-column pages. Latex templates can be found under this link.
Paper Acceptance
Each accepted paper must be presented at the conference by one of the authors. The final manuscript must be accompanied by a registration form and a registration fee payment proof. All conference attendees, including authors and session chairpersons, must pay the conference registration fee, and their travel expenses.
All papers, including the WiP, are going to be published in IEEEXplore.
