CALL FOR PAPERS
As computer systems become increasingly large and complex, their
Dependability, Security and Autonomy play critical role at supporting
next-generation science, engineering, and commercial
applications. These systems consist of heterogeneous
software/hardware/network components of changing capacities, availability,
and in varied contexts. They provide computing services to
large pools of users and applications, and thus are exposed to a number of
dangers such as accidental/deliberate faults, virus infections, malicious
attacks, illegal intrusions, and natural
disasters etc. As a result, too often computer systems fail, become
compromised, or perform poorly and therefore untrustworthy. Thus, it
remains a challenge to design, analyze, evaluate,
and improve the dependability and security for a trusted computing
environment. Trusted computing targets computing and communication systems
as well as services that are autonomous,
dependable, secure, privacy protect-able, predictable, traceable,
controllable, assessable and sustainable.
The scale and complexity of information systems evolve towards
overwhelming the capability of system administrators, programmers, and
designers. This calls for the autonomic computing
paradigm, which meets the requirement of self-management by providing
self-optimization, self-healing, self-configuration, and self-protection.
As a promising means to implement dependable
and secure systems in a self-managing manner, autonomic computing
technology needs to be further explored. On the other hand, any autonomic
system must be trustworthy to avoid the risk of
losing control and retain confidence that the system will not fail.
Trusted and autonomic computing and communications need synergistic
research efforts covering many disciplines, ranging
from computer science and engineering, to the natural sciences to the
social sciences. It requires scientific and technological advances in a
wide variety of fields, as well as new
software, system architectures, and communication systems that support the
effective and coherent integration of the constituent technologies.
This Symposium is to bring together computer scientists, industrial
engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange experimental and
theoretical results, novel designs, work-in-progress,
experience, case studies, and trend-setting ideas in the area of either
dependability, security or autonomic computing systems. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:
* Autonomic Computing and Communications
* Dependability Models and Evaluations
* Security Models and Quantifications
* Security, Dependability and Autonomic issues in Ubiquitous
Computing
* Grid Computing with Autonomic and Trusted Environment
* Security and Privacy
* Autonomic Computing Theory, Models and Architectures.
* Reliable and Dependable Systems
* Self-improvement in Dependability,
* Self-protection and intrusion-detection in Security
* Context-aware Access Control
* Self-healing, Self-protecting and Fault-tolerant Systems
* Software and Hardware Reliability, Verification and Testing
* Sensing, Monitoring and Measurements for Self-managing Systems
* Human Interaction with Trusted and Autonomic Computing Systems
* Applications, Real Projects, Reports in Autonomic, Dependable or
Secure Systems
PAPER SUBMISSIONS
Full papers (up to 8 pages) are invited on a wide variety of topics (not
limited to the above list). All manuscripts will be reviewed on
originality, technical strength, significance,
quality of presentation, and relevance to the Symposium. Authors should
submit full papers electronically (PDF or postscript) via the electronic
submission system using IEEE CS Proceedings
format. More information is available at http://www.DASC-conference.org/ .
