Program
Chair: Zbigniew Kalbarczyk (University of Illinois, USA) [email protected] Coordinated Science Laboratory University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign 1308 West Main Street Urbana, IL 61801 USA Tel: +1 217 244 7110 Fax: +1 217 244 7110 |
We invite original papers
and other contributions reporting research and practical results covering
all aspects of computer-system dependability, but very specially: resilient
and dependable dynamic information networks and infrastructures, self-managing
systems, survivable critical infrastructures, autonomic computing, intrusion
detection and tolerance, the reliability aspects of human-computer interactions,
dependable HW and SW architecture; distributed systems architectures
and protocols. |

Information for Authors Manuscripts in the following categories will be
refereed and considered for publication in the Proceedings of the
2007 International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks.
Excessively long submissions, unoriginal work, or work that is submitted
to multiple venues will be disregarded. Please submit in any of the
following categories by November 19,2006:
• Regular Papers describing recent research results • Practical Experience Reports describing an experience or a case study • Software and System Demonstrations describing the software or the system, its context and objective, and the planned demonstration. Optionally, authors may additionally send video recordings of their proposed demonstration • Panels, including the proposed topic(s), a description of the panel objectives, and the names and addresses of probable panelists The title page should include the title of the paper, author name(s), affiliations, mailing address, phone number, fax number, and e-mail address, a maximum 150-word abstract, five keywords (to help with referee assignment), the submission category (see above), an approximate word count, and a declaration that the material has been cleared through author affiliations. For multi-authored submissions, the contact author should be indicated. The format of submissions for review should be single-column, Times 11-point size, double-spaced: • 20 pages for Regular Papers (equivalent to 10 IEEE conference pages) • 12 pages for Practical Experience Reports and Software and System demonstrations (equivalent to 6 IEEE conference pages) • 4 pages (equivalent to 2 IEEE conference pages), plus biographical sketch for Panel Proposals The format for final, camera-ready submissions that have been accepted for publication should be in accordance with IEEE standard conference paper format. Submit all materials through the web to http://www.dsn.org as Portable Document Format (.pdf) files. Please preview the manuscript in a viewer such as Acrobat to ensure its integrity before submitting it. Make sure you visually check uncommon fonts, symbols, equations, etc. A defective print can undermine your chances of success. For those who are unable to submit materials electronically or cannot generate .pdf files, please contact the program chair for special instructions. |

William C. Carter Award The William C. Carter Award is presented annually since 1997 to recognize an individual who has made a significant contribution to the field of dependable computing through his or her graduate dissertation research. The award honors the late William C. Carter, a key figure in the formation and development of the field of dependable computing. The award is sponsored by IEEE Technical Committee on Fault-Tolerant Computing (TC-FTC) and IFIP Working Group on Dependable Computing and Fault Tolerance (WG 10.4). To qualify, a paper based on the student’s dissertation must have been submitted to the DCC Symposium within DSN as a regular paper with the student as the first author. Both current and former graduate students, no more than two years past completion of their dissertations, are eligible. A dissertation advisor wishing to nominate a student should submit the nomination form which can be found through the conference website at www.dsn.org. All Carter Award submissions accepted as regular papers to the DCC Symposium are evaluated by the Steering Committee of the Conference. |
