Introduction

ICA3PP 2015 is the 15th event in the series of conferences started in 1995 which are devoted to algorithms and architectures for parallel processing. ICA3PP is now recognized as the main regular

event of the world that is covering many dimensions of parallel algorithms and architectures, encompassing fundamental theoretical approaches, practical experimental projects, and commercial

components and systems. As applications of computing systems have permeated in every aspect of our daily life, the power of computing system has become increasingly critical. This conference

provides a forum for academics and practitioners from countries around the world to exchange ideas for improving the efficiency, performance, reliability, security and interoperability of computing

systems and applications.

Following the traditions of the previous successful ICA3PP conferences held in Hangzhou, Brisbane, Singapore, Melbourne, Hong Kong, Beijing, Cyprus, Taipei, Busan, Melbourne, Fukuoka, Vietri sul

Mare and Dalian, ICA3PP 2015 will be held in Zhangjiajie, China. The objective of ICA3PP 2015 is to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry and governments to advance

the theories and technologies in parallel and distributed computing. ICA3PP 2015 will focus on two broad areas of parallel and distributed computing, i.e. architectures, algorithms and networks,

and systems and applications.

Introduction

IEEE PRDC 2015 is the twenty-first event in the series of symposia started in 1989 which are devoted to dependable and fault-tolerant computing. PRDC is recognized as the main event in the Pacific

Rim 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 our 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):

(1) Software and hardware reliability, testing, verification, and validation
(2) Dependability measurement, modeling, evaluation, and tools
(3) Self-healing, self-protecting, and fault-tolerant systems
(4) Software aging and rejuvenation
(5) Safety-critical systems and software
(6) Architecture and system design for dependability
(7) Fault-tolerant algorithms and protocols
(8) Reliability in cloud computing, Internet, and web systems and applications
(9) Cloud and Internet information security
(10) Dependability issues in computer networks and communications
(11) Dependability issues in distributed and parallel systems
(12) Dependability issues in real-time systems, databases, and transaction processing systems
(13) Dependability issues in autonomic computing
(14) Dependability issues in aerospace and embedded systems
(15) Dependability issues in cyber-physical systems
(16) Dependability issues in socio-technical systems

Submission and Publication Information

Manuscripts should be submitted in the following 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 (http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html). 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=prdc2015). 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. One outstanding paper will be selected to

receive the Best Paper Award. Distinguished papers, after further revisions, will be published in several SCI & EI indexed special issues (Pending).
