DisCoRail 2019 – International Workshop on Distributed Computing in Future Railway Systems

2019-04-17

DisCoRail 2019 is a satellite workshop of DisCoTec 2019, held on June 17, 2019 in Lyngby, Denmark. Francesco Flammini, Linnæus University, is invited as a speaker and will give a talk on Towards Railway Virtual Coupling.

DisCoTec gathers several conferences and workshops that cover a broad spectrum of distributed computing subjects, ranging from theoretical foundations and formal description techniques to systems research issues. The aim of the DisCoRail’19 workshop is to discuss the following topics

  • how distributed computing has changed, and will even more change, the particular domain of railway signaling and train control systems
  • how formal techniques can help to address problems arising from this change.

For more information about DisCoRail 2019, see the conference website.

The final technical program is now available at this link.

IEEE SMC’19 October 6-9, 2019 – Bari, Italy

2019-03-06

IEEE SMC 2019 is the annual premier conference of the IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society. It represents an international forum for researchers and practitioners to report up-to-the-minute innovation and development, summarize state-of-the-art, and exchange ideas and advances in all aspects of systems science and engineering, human machine systems, and cybernetics.

The theme of the conference is Industry 4.0 and we would like to pay attention to two of the events that Francesco Flammini is the co-organizer for. More information about all the special sessions.

“Symbiotic Autonomous Systems in Smart-Cities and Industry 4.0”, one-day tutorial

“Homeland Security: Tools and Methodologies” This special session will bring experts, practitioners and researchers together with the aim to present and discuss all type of innovation related to Homeland Security applications. Expected contributions for this special session will range from the analysis and modelling of all-hazard threats to risk prevention/mitigation strategies and intelligence solutions based on Big Data and OSINT analysis, and from cyber-security of IT, IoT and OT systems to consequence analyses based on simulations or serious games.

Important deadlines:
March 31, 2019: deadline for paper submission
June 7, 2019: notification of paper acceptance/rejection
July 7, 2019: deadline for final camera-ready papers.
