[Florian Fainelli]

The Libre Software Meeting (LSM) is an annual event on free software 
taking place in july in France since 2000. The LSM meeting is organized 
this year in Geneva, Switzerland from 7th to 12th July. Amongst several 
tracks, the Libre Software Meeting will feature an « Embedded Systems 
and Open Hardware » track, for which the call for presentations has been 
released recently.

The purpose of the “Embedded Systems and Open Hardware” session is to 
give the state of the art of free software for embedded systems and Open 
Hardware. Technical topics of this session include but are not limited to:

*   Embedded OS Development kernel architecture, implementation and port 
for embedded systems
*   Embedded Development Tools: tool chains and project cases (tool 
chain projects, packaging for cross compilation, portability …)
*   Embedded Linux, BSD, or any other free operating system
*   Real-time extensions for Linux: RTLinux, RTAI…
*   Hard real-time kernels: eCos, RTEMS, ADEOS, Xenomai…
*   Soft Real-time kernels
*   Embedded Java, LUA, Python ...
*   GUI for embedded systems: EFL, Qt, Gtk…
*   Linux and System on Chip (SoC)
*   Open Hardware, Open design, free IP modules (Intellectual Property) 
and softcores: opencores, OpenRISC, NIOS, Microblaze, LEONSparc, FPGA…

The conferences will last 30 minutes, questions included. Round tables 
will be organized. Synthetic presentations are scheduled to last 20 
minutes. PDF versions of the presentation are not mandatory but they 
will be greatly appreciated (with an online web access just after the 
LSM event, they are a very useful documentation source for the entire 
community).
