The 13th IEEE International Conference on Dependable, Autonomic and Secure 
Computing
(DASC-2015)

Liverpool, England, UK, 26-28 October 2015 

Sponsored by IEEE, IEEE Computer Society and IEEE Technical Committee of 
Scalable Computing (TCSC)

INTRODUCTION
=============
As computer systems become increasingly large and complex, their Dependability, 
Security and Autonomy play critical role at supporting next-generation science, 
engineering, and commercial applications. These systems consist of 
heterogeneous software/hardware/network components of changing capaDASCies, 
availability, and in varied contexts. They provide computing services to large 
pools of users and applications, and thus are exposed to a number of dangers 
such as accidental/deliberate faults, virus infections, malicious attacks, 
illegal intrusions, natural disasters, etc. As a result, too often computer 
systems fail, become compromised, or perform poorly and therefore 
untrustworthy. Thus, it remains a challenge to design, analyse, evaluate, and 
improve the dependability and security for a trusted computing environment. 
Trusted computing targets computing and communication systems as well as 
services that are autonomous, dependable, secure, privacy protect-able, 
predictable, traceable, controllable, assessable and sustainable.

The scale and complexity of information systems evolve towards overwhelming the 
capability of system administrators, programmers, and designers. This calls for 
the autonomic computing paradigm, which meets the requirements of 
self-management by providing self-optimization, self-healing, 
self-configuration, and self-protection. As a promising means to implement 
dependable and secure systems in a self-managing manner, autonomic computing 
technology needs to be further explored. On the other hand, any autonomic 
system must be trustworthy to avoid the risk of losing control and retain 
confidence that the system will not fail. Trusted and autonomic computing and 
communications need synergistic research efforts covering many disciplines, 
ranging from computer science and engineering, to the natural sciences and the 
social sciences. It requires scientific and technological advances in a wide 
variety of fields, as well as new software, system architectures, and 
communication systems that support the effective and coherent integration of 
the constituent technologies.

DASC-2015 will be held on 26-28 October 2015 in Liverpool, UK. It aims to bring 
together computer scientists, industrial engineers, and researchers to discuss 
and exchange experimental and theoretical results, novel designs, 
work-in-progress, experience, case studies, and trend-setting ideas in the 
areas of dependability, security, trust and/or autonomic computing systems.
