Introduction to the Special Issue

Dear Colleagues,

Welcome to the Work-in-Progress (WiP) Session of the 33rd IEEE Real-Time Systems Symposium (RTSS’12), held in San Juan. I am pleased to present 25 excellent WiP papers that describe innovative research contributions from the broad field of real-time and embedded systems and applications. The 25 accepted papers were selected from 38 submissions. These proceedings are also available as a Technical Report at Mälardalen Real-Time Research Centre (MRTC), Mälardalen University, Västerås, Sweden (available at http://www.mrtc.mdh.se/).

The primary purpose of the WiP Session is to provide researchers with an opportunity to discuss their evolving ideas and gather feedback from the real-time and embedded systems and applications community at large. The presentation session is limited in duration, and can only provide a brief overview of each WiP paper. I hope however that members of the audience will find ideas presented particularly interesting and want to participate in longer discussions with the authors during the poster session that follows.

I would like to thank the WiP Program Committee members, listed below, for their hard work in
reviewing the papers.

Jian-Jia Chen Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany
Shinpei Kato Nagoya University, Japan
Linh T.X. Phan University of Pennsylvania, USA
Harini Ramaprasad Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, USA

Special thanks also goes to Chenyang Lu, Luis Almeida, Giorgio Buttazzo, Enrico Bini and Oleg
Sokolsky for their support and assistance.
