* Conference Focus

The conference aims at cross-fertilizing both theoretical and applied
research on topics including, but not limited to, the following:

- Design methods, tools and techniques based on models of computation
and concurrency (data-flow models, communicating automata, Petri nets,
process algebras, state charts, MSCs, etc.), performance analysis,
verification, testing and synthesis;

- Hardware / software co-design, platform-based design,
component-based design, refinement techniques, hardware / software
abstractions, co-simulation and verification;

- Synchronous and asynchronous design, asynchronous circuits,
globally asynchronous locally synchronous (GALS) systems, interface
design, multi-clock systems, functional and timing verification;

- Concurrency issues in Systems on Chips, massively parallel
architectures, networks on chip, task and communication scheduling,
resource, memory and power management, fault-tolerance and Quality of
Service issues;

- (Industrial) case studies of general interest, gaming applications,
consumer electronics and multimedia, automotive systems, (bio-)medical
applications, internet and grid computing, etc.;

- Concurrency issues in ad-hoc, mobile and wireless networking,
sensor networks, communication protocols, cross-layer optimization,
concurrency-related security issues;

- Business process modelling, simulation and verification,
(distributed) workflow execution, business process (de-)composition,
inter-organisational and heterogeneous workflow systems,
computer-supported collaborative work systems, web services;

- Synthesis and control of concurrent systems, (compositional)
modelling and design, (modular) synthesis and analysis, distributed
simulation and implementation, (distributed) controller synthesis,
adaptive systems, supervisory control.

* Papers

All papers should be in IEEE Computer Society Press 2-column
format. See the Paper Formatting Instructions available at the section
"Information for Authors" of
http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/home. Papers should be
submitted via EasyChair:
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=acsd11

The separate cover page should include the corresponding author’s
physical and e-mail addresses, phone and FAX numbers (including the
country code), the type of submission (regular, short or tool paper),
and an abstract of at most 60 words.

The deadline for paper submission of papers is January 17, 2011. The
page limits are: 10 pages for regular papers, 6 pages for short
papers, and 5 pages for tool papers. Authors are requested to submit a
60 words abstract by January 10, 2011.

Submitted papers should describe original work that has not been
previously published and is not under review for publication
elsewhere. Acceptance of a tool paper implies that a tool
demonstration should be given at the conference. Further information
can be obtained through the conference web-site:
