The RTEST symposium targets at bringing researchers in the fields of real-time systems, embedded systems, and related technologies, from both industry and academia together. After the 1^st successful edition, this year the event is planned to be held on 9-10 May 2018 at the University of Tehran (College of Engineering), Tehran, Iran.

RTEST 2018 welcomes submissions in all theoretical and practical areas, reporting design, analysis, implementation, evaluation, and empirical results, of real-time and embedded systems, Internet-of-things, and cyber-physical systems, including (but not limited to): real-time software and applications, embedded hardware, multicore and manycore embedded systems, networked/distributed real-time/embedded systems, real-time control systems, real-time and embedded operating systems, hardware/software co-design, system-level design, modeling and verification, real-time scheduling and resource management, quality-of-service (QoS) management, power and thermal management, compilers for embedded systems, WCET estimation, testing and debugging of embedded and real-time systems, dependable real-time systems, and security.

The areas are accommodated in the following three tracks (see the conference web site http://2018.rtest-conf.org):

• Cyber-Physical Systems
• Internet-of-Things
• Embedded Software and Hardware

The most qualified papers will be invited to extend their contributions to be reviewed for possible publication in a prestigious journal.

A separate CFP for the work-in-progress (WiP) sessions will be announced soon on the symposium web site.
