Real-Time Lunch

RT Lunch is a weekly seminar focussed on current research in real-time systems and related fields. It is open to all and a great way to get to know UNC's Real-Time Systems group. Y'all should come!

Mailing List

RT Lunch is coordinated via our mailing list rtlunch@listserv.unc.edu. This list is also used to share other relevant news and to coordinate upcoming events. All members of the Real-Time Systems group should subscribe to this list.

Time and Location

For the Spring 2010 semester, RT Lunch is held each Wednesday from 10:00 to 11:00 in FB 120.

Pre 2008

Real-Time Lunch has been around forever (i.e., longer than the current grad student generation), but the old schedules have been lost in the sands of time. Rumor has it that the talks were great, though. ;-)
