Call For Papers - CFP

In particular, the main topics of the workshop include, but are not limited to:

Dependability assessment of fault-tolerant systems including dynamic aspects and behaviors

Non-Boolean components and basic events, including components with different failure modes (transient, permanent, ...)

Non-Boolean system structures including dynamic, reconfigurable systems and gracefully degradable systems

Interrelation between faults and failures including dependent, on-demand, cascading and common cause failures and events

Dynamic redundancy schemes including load sharing, cold and warm standby, imperfect fault detection and localization, as well as the impact of non-zero reconfiguration times

Corrective and preventive maintenance policies, including minimal repair, finite/limited repair facilities and corresponding strategies

Varying failure rates, including ageing effects and reliability growth models

Human factor and human reliability

Non-coherent structures and systems, multi-valued systems and phased mission systems

Extensions to classic modeling approaches combinational, state-based, and simulation including Markovian and non-Markovian techniques, Petri nets, process algebras, Bayesian networks, and simulation

High-level and application-oriented modeling techniques and tools

On-line evaluation techniques and tools for adaptive systems

Collection and analysis of statistical data, computer tools for statistical analysis of data on reliability

Approximation techniques and tools (fuzzy logic, neural networks...), heuristics

Meta-heuristic approaches (genetic algorithms, simulated annealing, ant colonies ...)

Importance and sensitivity analysis
