Topics
======
New real-time systems have increasingly complex architectures because of
the intricacy of the multiple interdependent features they have to manage.
They must meet new requirements of reusability, interoperability,
flexibility and portability. These new dimensions favor the use of an
architecture description language that offers a global vision of the
system, and which is particularly suitable for handling real-time
characteristics.

Due to the even more increased complexity of distributed, real-time and
embedded systems (DRE), the need for a model-driven approach is more
obvious in this domain than in monolithic RT systems. The purpose of this
workshop is to provide an opportunity to gather researchers and industrial
practitioners to survey existing efforts related to behavior modeling and
model-based analysis of DRE systems.

This workshop seeks contributions from researchers and practitioners
interested in all aspects of the representation, analysis, and
implementation of DRE system behavior and/or architecture models. To this
end, we solicit papers (no more than 6 pages long) related to, but not
limited to, the following principal topics:

- Multi-domain specific modeling languages
- Model transformation and generative approaches
- Model-based Methodologies
- Integration of different formalisms (e.g., Simulink/StateFlow, StateMate
  and Scade-drive)
- Model Checking of architecture specifications
- ADLs behavioral models simulation, Scheduling analysis and Worst-case
execution time prediction


Workshop Format
===============
This full-day workshop will consist of an introduction of the topic by the
workshop organizers, presentations of accepted papers, and in depth
discussion of previously identified subjects emerging from the
submissions. A summary of the discussions will be made available.


Submission and Publication
==========================
To contribute, please send a position paper or a technical paper to
agusti[dot]canals[at]c-s[dot]fr with “ICECCS09 UML&AADL Workshop” in the
title. Papers should not exceed 6 pages. Submitted manuscripts should be
in English and formatted in the style of the IEEE Computer Society
Proceedings Format. Preferably, submissions should be in PDF format.

All selected papers will be published in the IEEE Computer Society Press
Proceedings.
