Overview

Modern society increasingly relies on mission- and safety-critical computer systems whose failure can have extreme and catastrophic consequences. As the range and nature of computer technologies expand, insuring the dependability of these systems is becoming increasingly difficult, and must encompass a swathe of complementary approaches to provide emergent dependability properties such as quality of service, availability, survivability, confidentiality, and fault and intrusion tolerance. These efforts must further consider all phases of a systemâ?™s life cycle, from its inception and design, through to its use, maintenance, and decommissioning.

Organised every two years, EDCC is the leading regional conference series to discuss advances on the dependability of computer systems in Europe. As in previous years, its eighth edition aims at providing a European-hosted venue for researchers and practitioners from all over the world to present and discuss their latest research results on fault-tolerance, dependability, security, and testing. Original papers are solicited on theory, techniques, systems, and tools for the design, validation, operation and evaluation of dependable and secure computing systems, covering any fault model, from traditional hardware and software faults to accidental and malicious human interactions.

Major topics include, but are not limited to:

Architectures for dependable systems;

Fault tolerance in databases and transactional systems;

Architecture and protocols for security;

Security and dependability benchmarking;

Security and dependability assessment;

Computer and network security;

Security and privacy policies;

Fault tolerance in real-time systems;

Critical infrastructure protection;

Fault tolerance in multimedia systems;

Dependability and security for mobile systems;

Hardware and software testing, verification, and validation;

Dependability in high-bandwidth and system area networks;

Human factors;

Dependability and security measurement, modelling, and evaluation;

Formal methods for dependability and security;

Dependability in SOA and middleware;

Information assurance and survivability;
