Submission Guidelines
Authors are invited to submit English-language research and application papers that are original, previously unpublished work and have not been submitted simultaneously to another journal or conference. Papers are limited to 10 two-column pages (not including references) in ACM conference format. The proceedings will be published by a well-known editor (ongoing discussions). RTNS will only accept full papers. All accepted papers can extend to 11 pages (excluding references), with the additional page only to address reviewers’ comments, not to add new content.
RTNS tends to be a community rather than a collection of individual experts. Then, authors are encouraged to present their results in such a way that the main ideas can be understood by any real-time researcher and lead to discussions and exchanges.
Authors of outstanding papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their work for a special issue of Springer Real-Time Systems journal. The extended papers must have at least 35% new content. Best papers and best student papers awards will be presented at the conference, along with an award for the best presentation.
