EMSOFT 2025: Call for Full-Length Papers

EMSOFT (ACM SIGBED International Conference on Embedded Software) aims at advancing the science and engineering of embedded software. Since 2001, EMSOFT has been at the forefront of embedded software innovation, connecting academia, industry, and government. At EMSOFT, cutting-edge research meets practical application in designing and analyzing software that brings the digital and physical worlds together. EMSOFT’s tradition is at the heart of cyber-physical systems, where computation, networking, and physical dynamics converge.

Topics of Interest

We invite submissions on all aspects of embedded software systems, including but not limited to:

• Embedded distributed, networked systems
• Time-critical embedded systems
• Multi-/many-core processors, hardware accelerators
• Embedded operating systems and middleware
• Scheduling, resource allocation, and execution time analysis
• QoS management and performance analysis
• Hardware and software co-design
• Embedded software design and analysis
• Energy-efficient embedded software
• Safety/Mixed-critical embedded software
• Software design and analysis for cyber-physical systems
• Embedded software architectures for data-intensive applications and signal processing
• Cyber-security, safety, resilience and fault-tolerance

Submission Guidelines

• Submitted manuscripts must be double blind. Authors should not reveal their identity directly or indirectly (e.g., through references).
• The submitted work must be original, not formerly published or under review elsewhere.
• The EMSOFT 2025 journal track will follow a two-stage review process. Authors of papers that pass the first review stage will revise their work based on the received comments, within a short time frame (around two weeks).

Publication

• All full papers accepted in EMSOFT’25 will be published in ACM Transactions on Embedded Computing Systems (TECS).
• All late-breaking papers accepted will be published in IEEE Embedded Systems Letters (ESL).
