OMG WORKSHOP ON DISTRIBUTED
OBJECT COMPUTING
Call For Presentations
The Object Management Group (OMG) announces the Call for Presentations for
its
annual workshop on Grid Distributed Object Computing for Real-time and
Embedded Systems.
This four-day event will be held in Washington, DC, USA on 14th - 17th July
2003.
Proposals for short workshop presentations or panels on any of the
following
topics are invited by Friday 7th March 2003:
- Case studies of deployed Real-time and Embedded CORBA-based systems
Including (but not limited to) case studies of:
- Applying CORBA in any real-time or embedded system
- High-confidence, high-availability or mission-critical CORBA
applications
- Integrating CORBA with legacy real-time and embedded systems
- Real-Time, Fault Tolerant or Minimum CORBA interoperability and
performance
- Security considerations in real-time or embedded CORBA deployments
- Design and modeling of Real-time, embedded and mission-critical
systems
- Reports on the application of high-level tools and formal design methods
such as UML and Model Driven Architecture (MDA) to real-time, embedded and
high-availability systems.
- Real-Time & Embedded Specifications and Standards Experience reports from
developers implementing real-time and embedded specifications and standards,
including:
- Real-Time CORBA (with either static or dynamic scheduling)
- Real-Time and embedded CORBA Services
- Fault-tolerant CORBA
- UML for real-time and embedded systems
- US Navy Open Architecture

- Profiling, profiles, and services
- Evaluation of real-time, high confidence, and embedded
middleware
- Real-Time and Embedded Advanced R&D Topics Research reports on relevant
topics, such as:
- Advanced scheduling techniques and high-level real-time programming
models
- Transport approaches to end-to-end QoS
- Multi-layer ORB end-system resource management
- Power-aware and reflective ORB middleware for wide-area mobile
systems
- Integrating Real-Time Java, Real-Time CORBA, and Real-Time Linux

- Combining multiple QoS properties in real-time and embedded systems
- High-performance or novel transport layers for real-time
applications
Tutorials
Proposals are welcomed for half-day or full-day tutorials on established
techniques and standards in any of the areas touched on in this call.

About The OMG
With well-established standards covering software from design and
development, through deployment and maintenance, and extending to evolution
to future platforms, the Object Management Group (OMG) supports a
full-lifecycle approach to enterprise integration which maximizes ROI, the
key to successful IT.
Based on the Model Driven Architecture (MDA), OMG's standards cover
multiple
operating systems, programming languages, middleware and networking
infrastructures, and software development environments. OMG's Modeling
standards, the basis for the MDA, include the Unified Modeling Language (UML)
and Common Warehouse Metamodel (CWM).
CORBA, the Common Object Request Broker Architecture, is OMG's standard
open
platform with hundreds of millions of deployments running today. OMG's
well-established CORBAservices and industry-specific standards are being
re-issued
under the MDA in many popular middleware environments. OMG domain
(industry-specific) standards cover vertical markets including healthcare,
telecommunications, biotechnology, transportation and a dozen other areas.
The OMG is headquartered in Needham, MA, USA, with a U.S. government
representative in Washington, DC, and international marketing offices in
Japan, the UK, and Germany.
The Object Management Group is an international, open membership,
not-for-profit computer industry specifications consortium. OMG member
companies write, adopt, and maintain the organization's standards following
a mature, open process.
For information on joining the OMG, or questions not addressed on the
website, please contact OMG headquarters by email at: info@omg.org, or 781-444 0404.
