==== Call for Papers ====
PRDC 2018 is the twenty-third event in the series of symposia started in 1989
that are devoted to dependable and fault-tolerant computing. PRDC is
recognized as the main event in the Pacific area that covers many dimensions
of dependability and fault tolerance, encompassing fundamental theoretical
approaches, practical experimental projects, and commercial components and
systems. As applications of computing systems have permeated into all aspects
of daily life, the dependability of computing systems has become increasingly
critical. This symposium provides a forum for countries around the Pacific Rim
and other areas of the world to exchange ideas for improving the dependability
of computing systems.
Topics of interest include (but not limited to):
- Architecture and System Design for Dependability
- Dependability issues in Computer Networks and the Internet
- Dependability issues in Parallel and Distributed Systems
- Dependability issues in Real-time Systems
- Dependability issues in Databases and Transaction Processing Systems
- Dependability issues in Artificial Intelligence and its Applications
- Dependability Issues in Cloud Computing
- Dependability issues in Cyber-Physical Systems
- Dependability issues in Socio-Technical Systems
- Dependability Measurement, Modeling, Evaluation, and Tools
- Cloud Computing Security and Privacy
- Internet of Things Architectures and Protocols
- Internet of Things Security and Privacy
- Fault-tolerant Algorithms and Protocols
- Software Defined Networks Architectures and Protocols
- Software and Hardware Reliability
- Self-healing, Self-protecting, and Fault-tolerant Systems
- Safety-Critical Systems and Software
- Reliability in Web Systems and Applications
*** Submission and Publication Information
Manuscripts should be submitted in the following two categories: Regular
Papers and Practical Experience Reports. Regular Papers should describe
original research (not submitted or published elsewhere) and be not more than
10 pages using IEEE format guidelines or 20 pages double-spaced. Practical
Experience Reports (max 6 pages using IEEE format guidelines or 12 pages
double-spaced) should describe an experience or a case study, such as the
design and deployment of a system or actual failure and recovery field data.
The title page should include a 150-word abstract, five keywords, authors'
names and affiliations, and a line specifying whether the submission is a
Regular Paper or a Practical Experience Report. The full mailing address,
phone, fax, and email address of the corresponding author should be specified.
All submissions must be made electronically (in PDF format) on the submission
web site (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=prdc2018). Papers will
be reviewed internationally and selected based on their originality,
significance, relevance, and clarity of presentation. All accepted papers will
be published by IEEE Computer Society Press (EI Indexed). One outstanding
paper will be selected to receive the Best Paper Award.
