Conference Focus

The conference aims at cross-fertilizing both theoretical and applied research on topics including, but not limited to, the following:

Design methods, tools and techniques based on models of computation and concurrency (data-flow models, communicating automata, Petri nets, process algebras, state charts, MSCs, etc.), performance analysis, verification, testing and synthesis;

Hardware / software co-design, platform-based design, component-based design, refinement techniques, hardware / software abstractions, co-simulation and verification;

Synchronous and asynchronous design, asynchronous circuits, globally asynchronous locally synchronous (GALS) systems, interface design, multi-clock systems, functional and timing verification;

Concurrency issues in Systems on Chips, massively parallel architectures, networks on chip, task and communication scheduling, resource, memory and power management, fault-tolerance and Quality of Service issues;

(Industrial) case studies of general interest, gaming applications, consumer electronics and multimedia, automotive systems, (bio-)medical applications, internet and grid computing, etc.;

Concurrency issues in ad-hoc, mobile and wireless networking, sensor networks, communication protocols, cross-layer optimization, concurrency-related security issues;

Business process modelling, simulation and verification, (distributed) workflow execution, business process (de-) composition, inter-organisational and heterogeneous workflow systems, computer-supported collaborative work systems, web services;

Synthesis and control of concurrent systems, (compositional) modelling and design, (modular) synthesis and analysis, distributed simulation and implementation, (distributed) controller synthesis, adaptive systems, supervisory control.

Papers

All papers should be in IEEE Computer Society Press 2-column format. See the Paper Formatting Instructions available at the section "Information for Authors" of http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/home. Papers should be submitted via EasyChair: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=acsd11

The separate cover page should include the corresponding author’s physical and e-mail addresses, phone and FAX numbers (including the country code), the type of submission (regular, short or tool paper), and an abstract of at most 60 words.
