About Embedded Systems Week (ESWEEK)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Embedded Systems Week (ESWEEK) is the premier event covering all aspects
of hardware and software design for smart, intelligent and connected
computing systems. By bringing together three leading conferences
(CASES, CODES+ISSS, EMSOFT), one symposium (MEMOCODE), and several
workshops and tutorials, ESWEEK allows attendees to benefit from a
wide range of topics covering the state of the art in embedded systems
research and development.

https://esweek.org/

Registered attendees can attend sessions in any of the ESWEEK
conferences (CASES, CODES+ISSS, EMSOFT). Tutorials, symposium
(MEMOCODE), and workshops require can be registered individually
or in addition with the ESWEEK registration.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Review Process
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
ESWEEK has three publication venues:

1. Journal Track: Full-length papers describe mature work and are
limited to 12 pages in IEEE double column format. Accepted papers will
be published in IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of
Integrated Circuits and Systems (TCAD) after two stages of
review. Articles not accepted after the second stage will still have
the possibility of continuing as regular journal papers in TCAD
(pending a decision from the TPC chairs).

2. Late Breaking (LB) Result Track: LB papers disseminate complete and
mature works written in a condensed form and are limited to 4 pages in
IEEE double column format. Accepted papers will be published in IEEE
Embedded Systems Letters (ESL) after one stage of review. Articles not
accepted after this stage will still have the possibility of
continuing as regular journal papers in ESL (pending a decision from
the TPC chairs).

3. Work-in-Progress (WiP) Track: WiP papers present not-yet-mature but
promising research work, and are limited to extended abstracts of 1
page in IEEE double column format. Accepted WiP papers will be
published in the ESWEEK Proceedings of CASES, CODES+ISSS, or EMSOFT,
depending on where they have been submitted.

These three venues are mutually exclusive, i.e., a work can only be in
submission to one of the three categories. Authors of WiP papers have
the opportunity to publish the extended final form of their work when
it has matured in any conference or journal they prefer. Special
Session papers, Keynote/Tutorial abstracts, etc. are also published in
the ESWEEK Proceedings of the respective conferences. All these
publications will be listed as regular publications within the ACM
and/or IEEE digital libraries. For more information on the publishing
process, refer to:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
CASES: International Conference on Compilers, Architectures,
and Synthesis for Embedded Systems
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
CASES is a premier forum where researchers, developers and practitioners
exchange information on the latest advances in compilers and
architectures for high-performance, low-power embedded systems. The
conference has a long tradition of showcasing leading edge research
in embedded processor, memory, interconnect, storage architectures
and related compiler techniques targeting performance, power,
predictability, security, reliability issues for both traditional
and emerging application domains. In addition, we invite innovative
papers that address design, synthesis, and optimization challenges
in heterogeneous and accelerator-rich architectures.

CASES Program Chairs:
Jana Doppa, Washington State University, US
Jeronimo Castrillon, TU Dresden, DE

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
CODES+ISSS: International Conference on Hardware/Software Codesign
and System Synthesis
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The International Conference on Hardware/Software Codesign and System
Synthesis is the premier event in system-level design, modeling,
analysis, and implementation of modern embedded and cyber-physical
systems, from system-level specification and optimization down to system
synthesis of multi-processor hard-ware/software implementations. The
conference is a forum bringing together academic research and industrial
practice for all aspects related to system-level and hardware/software
co-design.

CODES+ISSS Program Chairs:
Muhammad Shafique, New York University, US
Prabhat Mishra, University of Florida, US

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
EMSOFT: International Conference on Embedded Software
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ACM SIGBED International Conference on Embedded Software (EMSOFT)
brings together researchers and developers from academia, industry,
and government to advance the science, engineering, and technology of
embedded software development. Since 2001, EMSOFT has been the premier
venue for cutting-edge research in the design and analysis of software
that interacts with physical processes, with a long-standing tradition
for results on cyber-physical systems, which compose computation,
networking, and physical dynamics.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
MEMOCODE: International Symposium on Formal Methods and Models for
System Design
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
MEMOCODE focuses on formal methods and models for developing computer
systems and their components. MEMOCODE's objective is to emphasize the
importance of models and methodologies in correct system design and
development.

Call for Workshop Proposals
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
ESWEEK 2024 will host several workshops on Thursday October 3rd and
Friday October 4th and is soliciting proposals for new and recurring
workshops. Workshops can be half-day to two-day long. We invite you to
submit workshop proposals on any topic related to the broad set of
research and education.

Panels: Celebrating the 20th ESWEEK conference
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ESWEEK series started in 2005 in Jersey City, so ESWEEK 2024 will
be the 20th edition! This will be the occasion of celebrating the best
moments with a chosen panel of people who contributed to the past
editions. Two panels will be organized in 2024, one devoted to this
celebration, and another one devoted to the complex interrelations
between embedded systems and the environmental crisis (which
encompasses the climate change, the biodiversity collapse, the mineral
resource depletion), where we will bring some answers to the complex
issues of whether embedded systems shall be part of the solution to
the environmental crisis, or whether they are part of the problem.

Panel chair
