HiRES Workshop at HiPEAC 2015

CISTER/INESC TEC researcher Luis Miguel Pinho co-organized the 3rd Workshop on High-performance and Real-time Embedded Systems (HiRES 2015) held in conjunction with the 10th International Conference on High-Performance and Embedded Architectures and Compilers (HiPEAC 2015).

The workshop (which occurred on January 21, 2015, in Amsterdam, The Netherlands) brought together researchers and engineers in the confluence of high-performance, embedded and real-time systems for a variety of application domains. As usual, the event was fruitful with discussions on the challenges and research directions that should be tackled by the community.

The program featured one keynote from Eric Debes, responsible for computing R&T strategy for Thales (France), with a perspective on the challenges of high-performance and real-time embedded systems. Additionally there were two sessions of technical papers on topics such as parallelization of industrial hard real-time applications, worst-case execution time analysis, mixed-criticality systems, algorithmic skeletons and model and stack for parallelization of time-critical applications .

The workshop finalized with an academia/industry panel on Challenges of Timing Analysis of Many-Core Platforms, featuring as panellists Christian Ferdinand, from AbsInt (Germany), Francisco Cazorla, from BSC (Spain), Luca Fossati, from the European Space Agency and Sebastian Altmeyer, from the University of Amsterdam (the Netherlands).
