.:: FOCUS

The IV edition of the Power Management and Scheduling in the Linux
Kernel (OSPM) summit aims at fostering discussions on power management
and (real-time) scheduling techniques. Summit will be held in Pisa
(Italy) on May 11-13, 2020.

Although scheduler techniques for reducing energy consumption while
meeting performance and latency requirements are the prime interest of
the summit, we welcome anybody interested in having discussions on the
broader scope of real-time systems, real-time and non-real-time
scheduling, tooling, debugging and tracing.

Feel free to have a look at what happened previous years:
