HSCC 2012 - 15th International Conference on Hybrid Systems: Computation and Control
Beijing, China in April 17-19, 2012 



Conference Scope

Hybrid Systems: Computation and Control is a leading, single-track
conference focusing on research into systems in which the interplay
between discrete (or symbolic or switching) and continuous dynamical
behaviors plays a key role.  Such interplay often arises in embedded,
reactive and cyber-physical systems, but also appears in other new
contexts; for example, systems biology, or mixed-signal electronic
circuits.  Academic and industrial researchers are invited to submit
manuscripts detailing the latest developments in practice and theory
pertaining to the analysis, design, control, optimization,
verification, implementation and applications of such hybrid systems.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Models of heterogeneous systems;
* Computability and complexity issues;
* Real-time computing and control;
* Embedded and resource-aware control;
* Computation and control over wireless networks;
* Tools for analysis, verification, control, and design;
* Programming languages support and implementation;
* Modeling and analysis for applications and new domains, including
  automotive, communication networks, avionics, transportation
  networks, energy systems, mobile robotic networks, manufacturing,
  analog and mixed-signal electronics, systems biology, and other
  sciences

HSCC 2012 will be held as part of the fifth CPSWeek (Cyber-Physical
Systems Week) collocating HSCC, RTAS (Real-Time and Embedded
Technology and Applications Symposium), LCTES (Languages, Compilers,
and Tools for Embedded Systems), IPSN (International Conference on
Information Processing in Sensor Networks), and ICCPS (International
Conference on Cyber-Physical Systems).  Proposals for workshops and
tutorials are invited, and should be submitted through the CPSWeek


Submission Guidelines
Regular papers.  Papers of no more than ten pages (in ten point,
two-column in ACM format) presenting original research that is
unpublished and not submitted elsewhere can be submitted
electronically in PDF format through the conference web site.
Submitted papers will be reviewed by the program committee, and
authors will be invited to submit brief rebuttals of the reviews
before the final acceptances are made.

Tool presentations. Papers of no more than four pages (in ten point,
two-column ACM format) describing the implemented tool and its novel
features.  A demonstration and/or poster is expected to accompany a
tool presentation at the larger CPSWEEK demo session.


Important Dates
Initial submission: October 14 (common to all CPSWeek conferences)
Rebuttal phase: November 25-30
Author notification: December 16
Final version: January 16
