2012 National Workshops on the New Clockwork for Time-Critical Systems- October 24, 2012, Baltimore, Maryland and October 25-27, 2012, Baltimore, Maryland

该项目将支持由网络和信息技术研究与发展（NITRD）计划的高可信度软件和系统（HCSS）协调小组（CG）主办的两次会议，该计划是美国联邦政府资助的先进信息技术（如计算、网络和软件）革命性突破的主要来源。这两个会议分别是2012年10月25日至27日在马里兰州巴尔的摩市的Hyatt Regency Baltimore内港举行的关于时间关键系统新时钟的全国研讨会，以及2012年CPS教育研讨会规划会议，该会议将于2012年10月24日在马里兰州巴尔的摩市的Royal Sonesta Harbor Court举行。新时钟研讨会的目标是定义网络物理系统时间关键方面研究的需求列表，以便未来的研究可以为跨尺度的网络物理系统时间推理、管理资源以满足时效性要求以及通过新工具、技术和方法确保服务协议建立坚实的基础。研讨会将由一系列小组讨论、演讲和分组会议组成。讲习班将为卫生和社会服务机构编写一份报告。CPS教育规划会议的目标是为一个研讨会奠定基础，该研讨会将对支持高可信度网络物理系统的未来教育需求和方向进行类似的分析。这两次会议都将邀请研究人员以及政府和工业界的代表参加。

This project is to support two meetings sponsored by the High Confidence Software and Systems (HCSS) Coordinating Group (CG)of the Networking and Information Technology Research and Development (NITRD) Program, the Nation's primary source of Federally funded revolutionary breakthroughs in advanced information technologies such as computing, networking, and software. The two meetings are the 2012 National Workshop on the New Clockwork for Time-Critical Systems, which is scheduled for October 25-27, 2012 at the Hyatt Regency Baltimore Inner Harbor in Baltimore, Maryland, and the 2012 CPS Education Workshop Planning Meeting, which is scheduled for October 24, 2012 at the Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Baltimore, also in Baltimore, Maryland. The objective of the New Clockwork workshop is to define a list of needs for research on time-critical aspects of cyber-physical systems so that future research can develop robust foundations for reasoning about time in cyber-physical systems across scales, managing resources to meet timeliness requirements, and ensuring service agreements through new tools, techniques and methodologies. The workshop will be structured as a sequence of panels, presentations and breakout sessions. The workshop will produce a report for the HCSS agencies. The objective of the CPS Education Planning Meeting is to lay groundwork for a workshop that would perform a similar analysis of future educational needs and directions in support of high confidence cyber-physical systems. Both meetings will include participation by invited researchers and representatives from Government and industry.
