ACM/IEEE 16th International Conference on Hybrid Systems: Computation and Control (HSCC)

April 8-11, 2013, Philadelphia, PA

Hybrid Systems: Computation and Control (HSCC) focuses on research that involves a blend of concepts, tools, and techniques from computer science, control theory, and applied mathematics for analysis and control of dynamical systems that exhibit continuous, discrete, or combined (hybrid) dynamics. By drawing on strategies from both computation and control, this field offers techniques applicable to both man-made, cyber-physical systems (ranging from mixed signal circuits and small robots to global infrastructure networks) and natural systems (ranging from biochemical networks to physiological models). HSCC has long been a leading, single-track conference for such rigorous, interdisciplinary approaches to dynamical systems with an emphasis on computational aspects. Researchers from academia and industry are invited to submit manuscripts on their latest developments in this area.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- Design, synthesis, analysis, verification, and control;

- Computability and complexity;

- Programming languages, specification formalisms, and software tools;

- Real-time computing and resource-aware control for embedded systems;

- Applications in areas such as automotive, communication and wireless networks, avionics, transportation networks, energy systems, mobile robotic networks, environmental monitoring, medical devices, manufacturing, analog and mixed-signal electronics, systems biology, and other sciences;

Submissions will be evaluated based on technical merit and innovation as

well as their potential to stimulate interesting discussions and exchange of

ideas at the conference. Both academic and industrial submissions are

encouraged. Submissions should be a one-page abstract in PDF format

following HSCC regular paper formatting guidelines at

http://hscc2013.hscc-conference.org/call-for-papers

The abstracts will not be published in the proceedings, and therefore the corresponding work can be submitted somewhere else.

DEMOS

The demo session will provide a forum for researchers to showcase ongoing

work and obtain feedback from the HSCC community as a part of the joint

poster/demo session of the CPS Week (http://rtg.cis.upenn.edu/cpsweek/).

The title of submissions should start with "Demo Abstract:". Submissions should be

emailed to hscc2013@easychair.org with subject: HSCC demo submission. Demo

proposals should clearly describe what will be demonstrated and how the

contributions will be illustrated interactively. A table and power will be provided for each demo. If a demonstration

requires special arrangements in addition to the above, please describe them

clearly in the demo submission. If you have any questions, please contact

the HSCC co-chairs at hscc2013@easychair.org.

POSTERS

The poster session will provide a forum for researchers to showcase ongoing

work and obtain feedback from the HSCC community as a part of the joint

poster/demo session of the CPS Week (http://rtg.cis.upenn.edu/cpsweek/). The title of

submissions should start with "Poster Abstract:". Submissions should be

emailed to hscc2013@easychair.org with subject: HSCC poster submission. 

Accepted posters will be shown and presented as part of a joint CPSWeek poster session.
