[hpc-announce] CfP: SafeComp 2019 (Int. Conference on Computer Safety, Reliability and Security)

[Alexander Romanovsky]

38th International Conference on Computer Safety, Reliability and Security
Turku, Finland
September 10-13, 2019
https://conferences.ncl.ac.uk/safecomp2019/

SPECIAL THEME: Safety and security of autonomous systems

CALL FOR PAPERS

SAFECOMP was established in 1979 by the European Workshop on Industrial
Computer Systems, Technical Committee 7 on Reliability, Safety and Security
(EWICS TC7). Since then, it has contributed to the progress of the state-of
-the-art in dependable application of computers in safety-related and safety-
critical systems.

SAFECOMP is an annual event covering the state-of-the-art, experience and new
trends in the areas of safety, security and reliability of critical computer
applications. SAFECOMP provides plenty of opportunities to exchange insights
and experience on emerging methods, approaches and practical solutions. It is
a single-track conference supporting great networking opportunities.

The conference covers all aspects related to the development, assessment,
operation and maintenance of safety-related and safety-critical computer
systems.

Topics include, but are not limited to

* Development, verification and assessment of highly automated
    and autonomous dependable systems
* Formal modelling, verification and validation of critical
    systems, software and hardware
* Model-driven engineering and assessment of safety and
    security-critical systems and software
* Resilient and fault-tolerant hardware and software architectures
* Fault detection and recovery mechanisms
* Distributed and real-time monitoring and control
* Security and privacy protection mechanisms for
    safety-related and safety-critical systems
* Safety/security co-engineering and risk assessment
* Probabilistic verification and validation
* Testing, verification and validation methods and tools
    for safety and security
* Methods and tools for qualification, assurance
    and certification
* Data-driven techniques for engineering dependable
    systems, software and hardware
* Cyber-physical threats and vulnerability analysis
* Safety and security guidelines, standards and certification
    of critical systems
* Safety and security assurance cases
* Safety and security issues of applied AI and machine
    learning in critical systems
* Devops and agile development methods

Domains of application include:

* Railways, automotive, space, avionics, nuclear and
   process industries
* Highly automated and autonomous systems, advanced robotics,
   construction engines and off-road vehicles
* Telecommunications and networks
* Safety-related applications of smart systems and IoT
    (Internet of Things, Smart Anything Everywhere)
* Critical infrastructures, smart grids, SCADA
* Medical devices and healthcare
* Surveillance, defense, emergency & rescue
* Logistics, industrial automation, off-shore technology
* Education & training
