SRDS 2006 Call for Papers

For 25 years, the symposium on Reliable Distributed Systems has been a traditional forum for researchers and practitioners who are interested in distributed systems design and development, particularly with properties such as reliability, availability, safety, security, and real time.

We welcome original research papers as well as papers that deal with design, development and experimental results of operational systems. We are also soliciting papers for an experience track that present on-going industrial projects, prototype systems and exploratory or emerging applications, etc.


Topics of Interest
The major areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following topics:

• Dependability in autonomic, pervasive and ubiquitous computing
• Grid computing
• Web services
• Security and reliability of diffuse computing
• Security and high-confidence systems
• Parallel and distributed operating systems
• Distributed objects and middleware systems
• Fault-tolerant and secure sensor nets and wireless ad-hoc networks
• Dependable Event-based and Peer-to-Peer infrastructures
• Distributed databases and transaction processing
• Distributed multimedia systems
• Electronic commerce and enabling technologies
• Formal methods and foundations for dependable distributed computing
• Analytical or experimental evaluations of dependable distributed systems
• Fault-tolerant distributed algorithms
• Internet-based systems and applications
• QoS control and assessment
