This is a call for presentations for the 8th Real-Time Summit which will be held in Edinburgh, UK, on October 25th, 2018. The event follows the Embedded Linux Conference Europe 2018.

The Real-Time Summit is organized by the Linux Foundation Real-Time Linux (RTL) collaborative project. The event is intended to gather developers and users of the Real-Time preemption patch. The main intent is to provide room for discussion between developers, tooling experts and users.

If you are interested to present, please submit a proposal to rt-cfp@linutronix.de before September 9th, 2018, at 23:59 EST. Please provide a title, abstract describing the proposed talk (900 characters maximum), short biography (900 characters maximum), and describe the targeted audience (900 characters maximum). Please indicate the slot length you are aiming for: The format is a single track with presentation slots of 30 or 45 minutes length. The maximum presentation time is 15 resp. 25 minutes and the remaining time is reserved for discussion. The focus of this event is discussion.

We are welcoming presentations from both end users and developers, on topics covering, but not limited to:

• Real-time Linux development
• Real-time Linux evaluation
• Real-time Linux use cases (Success and failures)
• Real-time Linux tooling (tracing, configuration, …)

Those can cover recently available technologies, ongoing work and new ideas. Please understand that this is not a place for presenting sales and marketing pitches or to advertise technology which is not related or not usable in the context of real-time Linux technology.
