CALL FOR PAPERS
Performance
and Dependability Symposium
(PDS)
Program
Chair: Felicita Di
Giandomenico ISTI-CNR, Pisa, Italy [email protected]
Major
aspects of our society and our daily life are increasingly dependent on
networked information systems. As the complexity of these computing and
communication systems grows, it is more and more challenging to
guarantee their healthy operation, especially in terms of performance
and dependability (and their interaction). Therefore, modeling,
measuring, testing, benchmarking and verifying performance and
dependability (including security, safety and reliability) are critical
for the design and the deployment of these systems. The Performance and
Dependability Symposium (PDS) brings together academic and industrial
researchers in these two related areas, with emphasis on integrating
theory and practice, and exchanging ideas and
experiences.
We welcome regular research papers,
practical experience papers, tool descriptions/demonstrations, and
panel proposals related to performance and dependability assessment,
including:
• Analytical, numerical and
simulation techniques for performance and dependability
assessment • Dependability benchmarking and fault
injection/robustness testing • Design and use of tools for
performance and dependability assessment • Measurement
techniques for performance and dependability assessment •
Model-checking • Modeling and measurement of security and
intrusion detection techniques • Case studies showing the role
of performance and dependability analysis in designing computer and
communication systems
The symposium is
very broad, and relevant application areas include but are not limited
to:
• Critical
infrastructures • Database and transactional
systems • Distributed, parallel, clustered and grid
systems • E-Commerce systems • Fault-tolerant and
self-managing systems • Mobile and multimedia
systems • Real-time and embedded systems • Secure and
intrusion-tolerant systems • Sensor, wireless and ad-hoc
networks • Web and information-centric services and
systems
Please follow the general
guidelines for authors.
