Eighth International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Real-Time Systems

The Eighth International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Real-Time Systems (WPDRTS’00) is a forum that covers recent advances in real-time systems — a field that is becoming an important area in the field of computer science and engineering. It brings together practitioners and researchers from academia, industry, and government, to explore the best current ideas on real-time systems, and to evaluate the maturity and directions of real-time system technology. As the demand for advanced functionalities and timely management of real-time systems continue to grow, our intellectual and engineering abilities are being challenged to come up with practical solutions to the problems faced in design and development of complex real-time systems. The workshop presents the papers that demonstrate recent advances in research pertaining to real-time systems. Topics addressed in WPDRTS’00 include: Communication and Coordination Real-Time and Fault-Tolerance Real-Time Databases Scheduling and Resource Management QoS and Simulation
