Student Travel Grant for RTSS'17 Ph.D. Student Poster Forum on Real-Time Aspects of Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems

IEEE实时系统研讨会（RTSS）是真实的时间系统领域的主要会议，展示了该领域在理论和实践方面的创新。RTSS提供了一个高质量的，原创性的研究，涵盖了实时系统理论，设计，分析，实施，评估和经验的各个方面的介绍论坛。RTSS 2017将继续使RTSS成为一个广泛和包容的研讨会，希望拥抱实时系统研究的新领域和新兴领域。学生海报论坛（i）讨论物联网和CPS背景下出现的一系列跨学科研究问题，（ii）确定物联网和CPS领域之间的共性和根本差异，（iii）确定由于本地与托管计算，本地与托管存储，通信以及与物理世界的大规模交互的集成而变得可行的新应用程序，及（iv）界定一个初步的系统架构，以解决其中一些研究问题。主要目标是帮助学生（和实时社区）认识到物联网和CPS系统彼此不同，以及过去历史上过度设计的实时嵌入式系统，并提供一个论坛，学生可以讨论他们的建议，以解决在这种情况下出现的复杂的聚合系统问题。这类论坛对研究生具有重要的教育价值。 它鼓励学生们开始认真思考他们个人未来的研究议程，并为新兴的想法开辟道路。 有一个计划，以奖励最好的提交，并鼓励有经济困难的学生参加，无论是基于成绩和基于需要的津贴将提供，以抵消参与成本。 该项目包括扩大参与标准，作为征聘战略的一部分。

IEEE Real-Time Systems Symposium (RTSS) is the premier conference in the area of real time systems, presenting innovations in the field with respect to theory and practice. RTSS provides a forum for the presentation of high-quality, original research covering all aspects of real-time systems theory, design, analysis, implementation, evaluation, and experiences. RTSS 2017 will continue making RTSS an expansive and inclusive symposium, looking to embrace new and emerging areas of real-time systems research.This proposal is to organize, in conjunction with the symposium, a Ph.D. student poster forum (i) to discuss the set of interdisciplinary research problems that arise in the context of IoT and CPS, (ii) to determine commonalities and fundamental differences between the IoT and CPS domains, (iii) to identify novel applications that become feasible due to the integration of local vs. hosted computing, local vs. hosted storage, communication, and interaction with the physical world at scale, and (iv) to define an initial system architecture that addresses some of these research problems. The primary goal is to help students (and the real-time community) recognize that IoT and CPS systems are different from each other as well as historically over-engineered real-time embedded systems of the past, and to provide a forum by which students can discuss their proposal for addressing the complicated aggregate systems issues that arise in this context. Forums of this sort have significant educational value for graduate students. It encourages the students to begin seriously thinking about their personal future research agenda and opens pathways to burgeoning ideas. There is a plan to reward best submissions as well as encourage students with financial difficulties to participate, both merit-based and need-based stipends will be provided to offset participation costs. The project includes broadening participation criteria as part of the recruitment strategy.
