[please, accept our apologies should you receive this message multiple times -- feel free to forward to potentially 
interested colleagues]

Dear researcher/colleague,

please, consider publishing your latest research by submitting a paper, demo or poster to the /23rd IEEE International 
Symposium on Real-Time Distributed Computing/ (ISORC) conference, to be held in Nashville, Tennessee (USA), on May 19-21 
2020. The official ISORC 2020 call for papers is included below. Feel free to forward this message to potentially 
interested colleagues, and please accept our apologies should you receive this message multiple times.

*IEEE ISORC 2020 - CALL FOR PAPERS - https://isorc.github.io/2020/*
/The 23rd IEEE International Symposium on Real-Time Distributed Computing/
Nashville, Tennessee, USA, May 19-21, 2020
_/Main Track Papers Submission Deadline extended to: Friday, Jan 24th 2020 AOE (FIRM, No further extensions)/_

ISORC has become established as the leading event devoted to state-of-the-art research in the field of 
object/component/service-oriented real-time distributed computing (ORC) technology. In addition to the main conference, 
ISORC 2020 will host a special session dedicated to posters and demos, where participants will be able to show 
prototypes, tools, simulators and systems, which demonstrate the applicability of real-time computing to different 
applications.

This year, ISORC will improve the peer-reviewing process introducing /double-blind submissions/ and a /rebuttal/ phase, 
where authors will have a chance to shortly reply to the reviewers' major objections before the final acceptance 
decision is taken. /Best Paper//and //Student Paper Awards/ will be delivered during the conference.

Best papers from ISORC 2020 will be invited for submission to a /Special Issue of the Elsevier Journal of Systems 
Architecture (JSA)/.

IEEE ISORC 2020 welcomes contributions on topics that include, but are not limited, to:

  * /Software architectures/ for real-time distributing computing: programming paradigms, ORC paradigms,
    object/component models, languages, synchronous languages.
  * /Distributed computing and communication infrastructures/: real-time communications, networked platforms, protocols,
    Internet QoS, peer-to-peer computing, sensor networks, VANETS and V2V and V2I communications, time-predictable
    systems and hardware, trusted and dependable systems, complex systems of systems, model maintenance.
  * /Algorithms for real-time analytics/: real-time stream processing solutions including clustering, classification,
    mining and inferencing, machine and deep learning, statistical modeling, stream correlation and sampling.
  * /System software/: real-time kernels, operating systems, virtualization/container mechanisms and distribution
    middleware for ORC, supporting QoS management and performance, decentralized processing and scalability,
    extensibility, synchronization, resource allocation, scheduling, energy efficiency, timing analysis, fault tolerance
    and resilience, security.
  * /Applications/: medical devices, intelligent transportation systems, industrial automation systems and Industry 4.0,
    Internet of Things and Smart Grids, embedded and cyber-physical systems (automotive, avionics, autonomous vehicles,
    mobile devices, consumer electronics, building systems, sensors, etc), multimedia processing, RT Web-based
    Applications, QoS-Aware and real-time Cloud/Edge/Fog Computing, real-time packet processing for future networking
    infrastructures and Network Function Virtualization (NFV), time-sensitive social dispersed computing.
  * /System evaluation/: monitoring mechanisms & infrastructures, performance & timing evaluation, dependability,
    end-to-end QoS, system/infrastructure overheads, fault detection and recovery time, large-scale evaluations and
    field studies.
