INTRODUCTION
============
Embedded systems are closely related to our daily life, which reside from
smart appliances to unmanned trains. As the fastest growing industry,
embedded systems will have great societal and environmental impacts.
Therefore, the design and implementation of safe and efficient embedded
software and systems have utmost importance.

The 7th IEEE International Conferences on Embedded Software and Systems
(ICESS-10) will be held in Bradford, United Kingdom. Bradford is a city and
metropolitan borough in West Yorkshire, England. Bradford has a population
of 497,400, making it the fourth-most populous metropolitan borough and the
sixth-most populous local authority district in the UK. The city is often
cited as one of the prime examples of 'parallel communities', where the
population is effectively segregated along ethnic, cultural and faith lines.

The goal of ICESS-10 is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers and
researchers to discuss and exchange novel ideas, results, experiences and
work-in-process on all aspects of embedded software and systems. 

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

A. Systems, Models and Algorithms
- Embedded Real-Time Systems
- Embedded Hardware and Architectures
- Embedded Software/Agent
- Power Aware Computing

- Pervasive/Ubiquitous Computing
- Fault Tolerant & Trusted Embedded Systems
- System on Chip (SoC) and Multicore systems
- Embedded Real-Time Operating Systems
- Mobile Computing 
- Reconfigurable Computing 
- Cyber-Physical Systems

B. Design Methodology and Tools
