**********************************************************************

The IEEE Real-Time Systems Symposium (RTSS) is the premier conference in 
the field of real-time systems, and is a venue for researchers and 
practitioners to showcase innovations covering all aspects of real-time 
systems including theory, design, analysis, implementation, evaluation 
and experience. RTSS’22, celebrating the 43rd anniversary of the event, 
continues the trend of making RTSS an expansive and inclusive event, 
striving to embrace new and emerging areas of real-time systems 
research.

RTSS’22 welcomes submissions of high-quality, original research papers 
related to both real-time systems’ theory and practice. Submissions can 
go to either the real-time systems track (Track 1) or the design and 
applications track (Track 2) which covers Cyber-Physical Systems, HW-SW 
integration and system-level design, and Internet of Things (IoT). To be 
in scope, ALL submissions must address some form of real-time 
requirements such as deadlines, response times or delay/latency. All 
accepted papers will appear in the main program and proceedings.

RTSS especially welcomes new and emerging topics provided that they 
address some aspects of real-time requirements as stated above. Such 
topics may include machine learning techniques for design and analysis 
of real-time systems, system design approaches for achieving real-time 
machine learning, resource management in autonomous systems, 
system-level solutions for real-time applications exploiting 
domain-specific accelerators, etc.

Note the above list of topics is intended only as a rough guide and 
should not be understood as an exclusive list. Papers breaking new 
ground, departing from established subfields, or challenging the status 
quo are most welcome and are encouraged. Empirical survey-based research 
focused on the real-time systems field is also welcome. This type of 
research uses surveys, questionnaires, interviews, use-cases or other 
empirical techniques to obtain information about the past / current / 
future state of play in the research, design, development, verification, 
validation, and deployment of real-time systems. (Note literature 
surveys that classify, review, and summarize existing research papers 
are not considered empirical research and are not in scope of the 
conference).

All accepted papers will appear in the main program and proceedings. A 
selection of papers will receive recognition as outstanding papers, and 
will be highlighted as such in the proceedings. Best paper and best 
student paper awards will be presented at the conference, along with an 
award for the best presentation. (Note that submissions are eligible for 
the best student paper award provided that the first author is a student 
as of the submission deadline).

Paper Submissions

Submitted papers must describe original work not previously published or 
concurrently submitted elsewhere. Papers based on previous work presented
at workshops are eligible for submission – if the workshop paper has a 
digital object identifier (DOI) then the submission must contain at least 
30% new material. All submitted papers must comply with the double-blind 
submission requirements. The main body of each submitted paper is limited 
to 11 pages of technical content with additional pages permitted for 
bibliography only. Submissions must be formatted according to IEEE 
conference paper guidelines.
