Theme
Increasingly, large and complex parallel distributed and network-centric computing systems provide unique challenges to the researchers in dependable computing, especially because of the high failure rates intrinsic to these systems. This workshop is a continuation of the FTPDS (Fault-Tolerant Parallel and Distributed Systems) workshop series. The goal is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to discuss all aspects of dependability including reliability, availability, safety and security for parallel, distributed and network-centric systems. All aspects of design, theory and realization are of interest.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Dependable parallel, distributed and network-centric computing systems
- High availability in parallel, distributed and network-centric systems
- Safety and security in distributed and network-centric computing systems
- Autonomic network computing
- Resilience/fault tolerance at software level
- Dependability by virtualization
- Dependable high-speed wide, local, and system area networks
- Dependable mobile computing
- Dependable clusters
- Dependable internet servers
- Dependable cloud computing
- Dependability issues of multi- and many core systems
- Dependability in distributed embedded systems
- Dependable protocols for distributed and network-centric systems
- Protocol verification and validation
- Dependability of Software Defined Networks (SDN)
- Practical experiences and prototypes
- Dependability evaluation of parallel, distributed and network-centric systems
Submission of papers, at most 10 pages long including figures and references
in the IEEE format describing original unpublished research by
February 15, 2016
in PDF format electronically via easychair webpage:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dpdns2016
All papers will be reviewed.
Proceedings of the workshops are distributed at the conference and
are submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library after
the conference.
