SNART - The Swedish National Real-Time Association
Refreshed: 24-August-2009
Carlo Alberto Boano Wins the Bengt Asker Award 2009
This year's competition for the Best Real-Time Master Thesis covered the time period April 30, 2008 to April 30, 2009. In total, twelve theses were submitted: two from Linköping University, two from Mälardalen University and eight from the Royal Institute of Technology. Following a review process, where each thesis was reviewed by at least two members of the SNART board, the winning thesis was "Application Support Design for Wireless Sensor Networks" by Carlo Alberto Boano. Formally examined at KTH, the thesis work was conducted at the Network Embedded System Group (NES) of the Swedish Institute of Computer Science (SICS) and at Saab Security in Kista. The prize money of 5000 SEK was generously donated by Volvo Technology Corporation.

Real-Time in Sweden and SNART Summer School 2009
SNART is traditionally arranging the Real-Time in Sweden (RTiS) conference in August this year. The conference is intended to give an overview of current research and development in the area of real-time and embedded systems, and this year we have an excellent program of invited speakers (see program below). The conference is intended to act as a platform promoting networking within Swedish academia and industry. This year the conference is held in the beautiful city of Lund 19th to 20th of August (19th lunchtime - 20th afternoon).Moreover, in continuing the tradition of the ARTES Summer School for Ph.D. students, there will be a SNART Summer School the 18th and 19th of August (18th lunchtime - 19th lunchtime). During the summer school there are some invited speakers, and the Ph.D. students will be given an opportunity to present their research. The purpose of the summer school is to establish, maintain and strengthen the network of Swedish Ph.D. students in the area of real-time and embedded systems within Sweden. It is an excellent opportunity to meet new people, and to kick start the academic year of 2009-2010.

The Swedish National Real-Time Association (SNART) is a non-profit organisation for academic researchers, students and industrial practitioners, which are active or interested in real-time or embedded SW systems. SNART has the goals to:
- increase the interest for conducting research in the area
- improve the interaction between academia and industry
- stimulate continuous competence development in industry
- actively work for increased funding for research and thereby support improved national education in the area
- distribute information and arrange workshops and conferences
SNART was the main organisation behind the ARTES initiative in 1996. ARTES is a national Swedish strategic research initiative in Real-Time Systems supported by the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research (SSF).
The membership is free.
