The Euromicro Technical Committee organizes a number of satellite
events attached to its 14th International Real-Time Systems
Conference. This half-day workshop is the second on the series of
workshops that started at the 2001 Euromicro conference (See
http://www.idt.mdh.se/ecrts02/ for the summary of last year's 
contributions).

The goal of the workshop is to bring together people from
industry and academia that are interested in all aspects of
timing analysis for real-time systems. The workshop will provide
a relaxed forum to present and discuss new ideas, new research
directions and to review current trends in this area. The
workshop will be based on short presentations that should
encourage discussion by the attendees.

The topics of the workshop include any issue related to timing
analysis, in particular:
 o High-level code analysis
 o Low-level timing analysis
 o Timing analysis through measurement
 o Modelling of processor features
 o Probabilistic analysis techniques
 o Integration of WCET and schedulability analysis
 o Evaluation and case studies
 o Tools for timing analysis
 o Industry experience reports

Statements which are innovative, controversial or that present
new approaches are specially sought.

People who would like to participate in this event are asked to
send a 2 page extended abstract to the workshop chairman 
(bernat@cs.york.ac.uk). The papers will be reviewed by an internal 
committee.  Upon acceptance, a final paper of maximum 4 pages should
be then be prepared and submitted. All papers will be made available 
to all participants a week before the workshop so that contributions 
can be examined prior to the workshop. The workshop sessions will
involve 5-10 minute presentations followed by a 20-25 minute
discussion. Authors will be asked to produce a final version of
their paper that includes the issues covered in the discussions
by 20 July, 2002.

To foster the workshop character the number of participants will
be limited to 30. There will be a small charge for workshop
registration 

The half-day workshop will be held at the Technical
University of Vienna in the afternoon of the 18th June 2002.

Important dates (deadlines):
 - April 22,2002: Submission of extended abstracts
 - May 6: Notification of acceptance
 - June 1: Final Submission of papers
 - June 12: Broadcast of final papers to all authors
 - June 18: WCET Workshop
 - June 19-21: Euromicro International Conference on RTS
