Call for papers

The goal of the WAMOS workshop is to present novel ideas and results (both practical as well as research oriented) in the field of microkernel based operating systems. Participation is open to anyone, however students participating in the Advanced Operating Systems course at HSRM are explicitly for^H^H^Hasked to submit their work.
The authors of the most successful papers may be asked to review their work and subsequently submit it to a "real" workshop.

Topics of interest

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
  • Analyses and comparison of different microkernel architectures
  • Portability issues of microkernel-based systems
  • Concepts for integrating and sharing hot-pluggable I/O devices in a multiserver environment
  • Safety and security implications


Submission Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished papers that are not being considered in another forum. Papers submitted will be thoroughly reviewed for novelty, relevance, technical quality and scientific soundness by the members of the program committee. Authors of accepted papers will have an option of improving their submissions according to the reviewer's comments, before providing camera-ready papers.

Submissions must be in the standard ACM format for conference proceedings. Papers should be clearly marked in the text as "Short Research Paper". Short research papers should not exceed five pages double column including figures and tables.
