                          12-13 June, 2012, Beijing

                           WORK-IN-PROGRESS SESSION
                               CALL FOR PAPERS

Submissions of 2-4 page extended abstracts describing exciting new, in-
progress, and/or experimental research are invited for the Work-in-Progress 
(WIP) session of LCTES 2012. 

The WiP session is devoted to the presentation of new and on-going research in 
embedded systems. The primary purpose of the WiP session is to provide 
researchers with an opportunity to discuss their evolving ideas and gather 
feedback from the embedded systems community at large.  Of particular interest 
are ideas and contributions that present significant paradigm shifts, explore 
unique and unconventional approaches to important problems, or investigate 
fundamental departures from conventional wisdom in adopted solutions.  WiP 
topics include, but are not limited to:

    Programming language challenges
    Compiler challenges
    Tools for analysis, specification, design, and implementation
    Theory and foundations of embedded systems
    Novel embedded architectures

For a more detailed description of potential topics please consult the main 
conference call for papers at http://lctes12.cs.purdue.edu/content/calls
