CALL FOR PAPERS for the Workshop, fast abstract, poster and industry track. ******************************************************************************** The 22nd IEEE Pacific Rim International Symposium on Dependable Computing (PRDC 2017) Christchurch, New Zealand January 22-25, 2017 http://prdc.dependability.org/PRDC2017/ ******************************************************************************** Selected papers, after further revisions, will be published in several SCI & EI indexed special issues: (1) Future Generation Computer Systems - Elsevier (SCI&EI Indexed, Impact Factor: 2.639) (confirmed) http://www.journals.elsevier.com/future-generation-computer-systems/ (2) Elsevier Journal of Network and Computer Applications (SCI&EI Indexed, Impact Factor: 2.33) (pending) http://www.journals.elsevier.com/journal-of-network-and-computer-applications/ (3) IEEE Internet of Things Journal (SCI&EI Indexed) (pending) http://iot-journal.weebly.com/ IEEE PRDC 2017 is the twenty-second event in the series of symposia started in 1989 that are devoted to dependable and fault-tolerant computing. PRDC is recognized as the main event in the Pacific area that covers many dimensions of dependability and fault tolerance, encompassing fundamental theoretical approaches, practical experimental projects, and commercial components and systems. As applications of computing systems have permeated into all aspects of daily life, the dependability of computing system has become increasingly critical. This symposium provides a forum for countries around the Pacific Rim and other areas of the world to exchange ideas for improving the dependability of computing systems. "Christchurch City is alive with colour, atmosphere and world-class attractions, including the International Antarctic Centre, Orana Park and Willowbank Wildlife Park. Christchurch is known internationally as the "Garden City" because of its spectacular gardens. Christchurch is also home to a number of excellent cafes, bars and restaurants. Many popular destinations such as Kaikoura, Akaroa, Mt Hutt and South Canterbury are less than two hours drive from Christchurch."

Industry Track submissions should be a maximum of 6 pages using IEEE format guidelines. The submission deadline is September 28, 2016. Call for Fast Abstracts Fast Abstracts are lightly-reviewed 2-page manuscripts in IEEE format describing unpublished, in-progress, novel work, opinions or ideas. The submission deadline is September 28, 2016. Call for Posters The Poster Session provides a forum to present and discuss works-in-progress with topics related to dependable systems. A poster paper should use the same format as a regular paper but with a maximum of 2 pages. The submission Deadline is September 28, 2016.
