The Annual IEEE/IFIP International Conference on Dependable
Systems and Networks (DSN) is the most prestigious international forum for
presenting research results in the field of dependable computing.
Authors are invited to submit original papers on the research and practice of
creating, validating, deploying, and maintaining dependable systems and
networks.
All aspects of dependability and applied security are within the scope of DSN,
including innovative architectures, protocols, and algorithms, as well as
experimentation with and assessment of dependable and secure systems. DSN’s
current thematic areas of emphasis are:
Hardware (e.g., microprocessors, system on chip, storage systems, trusted computing)
Software (e.g., applications, middleware, operating systems)
Cyber-physical systems (e.g., embedded systems, internet of things, smart grid,
automotive, aerospace, medical systems)
Socio-technical systems (e.g., virtual worlds, human-computer interaction,
social networking)
Clouds (e.g., cloud storage, computing, platforms, applications, cloud security
and privacy)
Networks (e.g., wireless networks, mobility, software-defined networking,
intrusion detection systems, network security)
Models and methodologies for programming, evaluating, and assessing dependable
systems (e.g., performance and dependability evaluation, analytical and
numerical methods, simulation, experimentation, benchmarking, verification,
field data analysis)
Important dates:
Nov. 27, 2017: Abstract submission deadline
Dec. 4, 2017: Paper submission deadline
Feb. 15 – 17, 2018: Author rebuttal period
Mar. 5, 2018 (or sooner): Notification to authors
Information to authors
Innovative papers in other areas of dependable and secure systems and networks
will also be considered. Papers will be assessed with criteria appropriate to
each category. The conference favors work that explores new territory,
continues a significant research dialogue, or reflects on experience with (or
measurements of) state-of-the-art implementations. Submissions will be judged
on originality, significance, correctness and impact.
Research Papers, Practical Experience Reports, and Tool Descriptions will be
refereed and included in the Proceedings of the DSN 2018, if accepted.
All contributions must be written in English. IEEE Computer Society will
publish accepted contributions.
At least one author of every accepted paper is expected to register (as a
regular registration) for the conference and present the work.
For more details about submission, and for submission, visit the Submission
page (coming soon).
Paper Categories
Submissions can be made in one of the following categories (authors are
required to indicate the category as part of the title):
Regular papers (max. 12 page submission; 12 pages in proceedings): full paper
describing a research contribution to dependable computing, including
experimental work focused on implementation and evaluation of existing
dependability techniques.
Practical experience reports (max. 8 page submission; 8 pages in proceedings):
a short paper describing practitioner experiences or lessons learned applying
tools and techniques to real-world problems.
Tool descriptions/demonstrations (max. 8 page submission; 8 pages in
proceedings): descriptions of the architecture, implementation and usage of
substantive tools to aid the research and practice of dependability.
The number of pages indicated above includes everything: title page, text,
references, figures, appendices, etc.
