CALL FOR PAPERS
-----------------------
1st international Workshop on Emulation Tools, Methodology and Techniques
(EMUTools) to be held in conjunction with SIMUTools 2013 Cannes, French
Riviera -
March 5th, 2013
EMUTools, 1st workshop on Emulation Tools, Methodology and Techniques, is a
major event dedicated to emulation tools and methodology, collocated with
SIMUTools 2013. Emulators represent a family of tools where real and
emulated components interact at various levels and scales with external
element. Where
simulators aim at evaluating the performance and conformity of models,
emulators aim at evaluating that of real components and execution
environment. The
potential of emulators have been acknowledged, notably as complementary
approach to field-operational test, and as a validation and integration
technique (or
methodology) prior to deployment. Emulators have also recently been subject
to an increasing interest from practitioners in various fields of research.
Yet,
emulation tools have experienced only little dedicated visibility from the
community to breed inter-disciplinary collaborative research and exchange of
ideas
in the very specific and challenging methodologies and techniques required
by emulator tools or available in major emulation platforms.
The workshop therefore aims at providing an interaction environment between
academic and industrial researchers along with practitioners in the
emulation
field. EMUTools proposes to address research challenges in the emulation
methodologies, architecture, analysis, applicability, performance, practice
and
platforms. This event also aims as building a bridge between the simulation
and emulation communities to foster collaborative research to address common
challenges in the complementary fields of emulation and simulation.
We invite submissions of original high quality work in the area of emulation
methodology, techniques, tools and applications. We would especially like to
emphasize EMUTools' "Student Demo Contest". This year, we are challenging
undergraduate and graduate students to show us their latest, coolest,
chair-rocking
and mind-blowing innovation in an operational demonstration. Go beyond the
theoretical limitations and shed off the numerous assumptions about
emulation
techniques and applications, and present an operational prototype that has
the potential to revolutionize the role of emulation tools.
EMUTools general area includes but is not limited to:
- Emulation methodology: architecture, distributed systems, load-balancing,
multi-processor, scalability, cloud, emulation-as-a-service.
- Emulation Techniques: multi-granularity, co-emulation/simulation,
application, system, protocol or channel emulation.
- Emulation Tools: framework, software, platforms, front-end/back-end, and
interactions between different simulation and emulation tools.
EMUTools invites submissions in all application areas of emulation
methodology, tools and techniques. Specific topics include (but are not
limited to):
- Wireless technologies and access networks (cellular, vehicular, mesh, ad
hoc, wireless sensor networks)
- Backbone and core network (LTE, LTE-A, Internet)
- Peer-2-Peer and overlay networks
- Cloud systems and networks
- Parallel and distributed systems, high-performance computing systems
- Infrastructure systems (transportation, smart grid)
- Intelligent transportation systems
- Cyber-physical systems
- E-Health
- Sensors and M2M networks
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
-------------------------------------
We invite the following types of submission:
- Full papers up to 10 pages
- Short papers up to 6 pages for work-in-progress aspects
- Poster and Demo abstracts of 3 pages for demostrations and emerging
concepts of emulation platforms.
Submissions should be prepared in ACM conference proceedings format and be
original research that is unpublished and not currently under consideration
for
publication. Paper should be submitted only in .pdf format on Easychair at:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=emutools2013
Further detailed submission instructions, together with format files, are
available on the workshop website.
Submissions that are accepted and presented at the workshop will appear in
the SIMUTools 2013 proceedings, on CD, in EU-DL, and in the ACM Digital
Library
(pending approval).
