(Apologies for multiple copies.) ================================================== 2nd International Workshop on Engineering Safety and Security Systems March 18, 2013, Luxembourg Co-located with ICST 2013 in Luxembourg, March 18-22, 2013 More information: http://www.comp.nus.edu.sg/~pat/esss2013/ =================================================== Important dates ----------------- * January 6th 2013: Submission deadline (extended) * February 11th 2013: Notification of acceptance/rejection (extended) * March 18th 2013: Workshop Introduction of the Workshop ----------------- The International Workshop on Engineering Safety and Security Systems (ESSS) aims at contributing to the challenge of constructing reliable and secure systems. The workshop covers areas such as formal specification, (extended) type checking, model checking, program analysis/transformation, model-based testing and model-driven software construction. The workshop will bring together researchers and industry R&D expertise together to exchange their knowledge, discuss their research findings, and explore potential collaborations. Theme of the Workshop ----------------- The main theme of the workshop is methods and techniques for constructing large reliable and secure systems. The goal of the workshop is to establish a platform for the exchange of ideas, discussion, cross-fertilization, inspiration, co-operation, and dissemination. The topics of the workshop include, but are not limited to: -- methods, techniques and tools for system safety and security -- methods, techniques and tools for analysis, certification, and debugging of complex safety and security systems -- model-based and verification-based testing -- emerging application domains such as cloud computing and cyber-physical systems -- case studies and experience reports on the use of formal methods for analyzing safety and security systems Submissions guidelines ----------------- Paper submissions must be original, unpublished work. Submissions should be in made via the Easychair site: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=esss2013. Submitted manuscripts should be in English and formatted in the style of the IEEE Computer Society Proceedings Format (see http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html ). Papers should not exceed 6 pages for full papers and 2 pages for short papers, including figures, references, and appendices. All submissions should be in PDF format. Submissions not adhering to the specified format and length may be rejected immediately, without review. All workshop papers will be published in the IEEE Digital Library in the form of a post-proceedings. A pre-workshop version of the papers will be available on the workshop website prior. Publication of accepted articles requires the commitment of one of the authors to register for the workshop and present the paper.
