Abstract

Since it was established in 1979 by the European Workshop on Industrial Computer Systems, Technical Committee 7 on Reliability, Safety and Security (EWICS TC7), SAFECOMP has contributed to the progress of the state&#8211;of&#8211;the&#8211;art in dependable application of computers in safety&#8211;related and safety&#8211;critical systems&#046; SAFECOMP is an annual event covering the state&#8211;of&#8211;the&#8211;art, experience and new trends in the areas of safety, security and reliability of critical computer applications&#046;<br>SAFECOMP provides ample opportunity to exchange insights and experience on emerging methods, approaches and practical solutions&#046; It is a single track conference without parallel sessions, allowing easy networking&#046;<br>TOPICS<br>The conference covers all aspects related to the development, assessment, operation and maintenance of safety&#8211;related and safety&#8211;critical computer systems&#046; Major topics include, but are not limited to:<br>* Fault&#8211;tolerant and resilient hardware and sofware architectures<br>* Error detection and error recovery mechanisms<br>* Distributed and real&#8211;time monitoring and control<br>* Security and privacy protection mechanisms<br>* Safety/security risk assessment<br>* Model&#8211;based design and analysis<br>* Risk reduction and mitigation techniques<br>* Formal methods, verification and validation<br>* In&#8211;the&#8211;loop and model&#8211;based testing<br>* Methods for qualification, assurance and certification<br>* Dependability analysis using simulation and experimental measurement<br>* Human and social aspects in dependability analysis<br>* Cyber&#8211;physical threats and vulnerability analysis<br>* Safety guidelines, standards and certification<br>* Safety and security interactions and tradeoffs<br>* Safety and security cases<br>Domains of application include (but are not limited to):<br>* Railways, automotive, aerospace and avionics<br>* Telecommunication and networks<br>* Critical infrastructures, smart grids, SCADA<br>* Medical devices and healthcare<br>* Defense, emergency &amp; rescue<br>* Logistics, production automation and robotics, off&#8211;shore technology<br>* Education &amp; training<br>
