Call for Brief Presentations

The Brief Presentations (BP) Track provides researchers with an opportunity to present their ongoing and/or introduce work published in journals or elsewhere that is relevant to the real-time systems community. In the RTSS’24 BP track, we welcome two types of submissions:

  1. Work-in-Progress (WiP) papers.
  2. Work-already-Published (WaP), a.k.a. Journals-never-Presented, papers.

The BP track shares the technical scope with RTSS 2024.

The BP track will take place during the main conference.

For all accepted contributions (WiP and WaP) in the BP track, at least one author must:

  • be registered for the conference,
  • present the work during the RTSS’24 BP session, and
  • display a poster of the work.

Work-in-Progress (WiP) Papers

WiP submissions should focus on ongoing, unpublished work that discusses evolving and early-stage ideas, explores new research directions, and highlights current trends in the field. Acceptance of these submissions will be based on their originality, quality, significance, and relevance to RTSS. WiP submissions should be in the form of short papers, limited to a maximum of 4 pages.

Accepted WiP papers will be included in the main RTSS proceedings (published by IEEE).

Work-already-Published (WaP) Papers

WaP submissions should be an extended abstract, limited to a maximum of 2 pages, of a previously published paper. The abstract should explain the relevance of the work to RTSS and include clear references to the original publication being summarized. The purpose of the WaP presentations in the BP session is to raise awareness of work that has been published elsewhere but may not be widely known to RTSS participants. In addition, the track aims to highlight recent contributions to the real-time systems community that have appeared in journals without having been previously presented at a conference.

For a paper to qualify for presentation as a WaP, it must meet the following criteria:

  1. The paper should be recent and have been published in a journal related to real-time systems.
  2. The paper should NOT have been presented at another conference before.

Accepted WaP papers will not appear in any printed form at the conference since they have already been published elsewhere.
