An article in german magazine Aspekt addresses EU FP7 projects, referring to KARYON and mentioning the work on "intelligent" cooperative systems in the automotive and avionics domains. A copy of the article (in German only) is available in the documents section of the website.

KARYON is now visible on Twitter and on LinkedIN. Join us and stay tunned!

The Workshop on Architecting Safety in Collaborative Mobile Systems (ASCoMS) is being organized by KARYON partners and intends to bring together researchers and industry interested in the problem areas addressed in the project. In particular, the workshop seeks contributions on the following topics:

• Architectural design for safety-critical systems
• Aspects of functional safety
• Reliable perception of the environment
• Coordination and adaptation strategies for safety-critical systems
• Safety in automotive and avionic applications
• System safety guidelines and standards

ASCoMS is taking place on September 25, 2012, in Magdeburg, Germany, under the umbrella of SAFECOMP 2012, one of the leading conferences in the area of safety and safety-critical systems.The deadline for submission of contributions is May 7, 2012. For further information on submission details, important dates and the program committee, please refer to the on-line Call for Papers (also available in pdf format).

A KARYON press release was recently disseminated to the media in several countries, as a means to announce and give increased visibility to the project. The press release was translated from English to Swedish, Portuguese and German, allowing for an easier dissemination in local media. These press releases were planned as Deliverable D6.1.1, and are available on the Deliverables page. Feel free to disseminate further!
