Overview |
HotDep '05 is aimed at identifying cutting-edge research ideas spanning the domains of systems and fault tolerance/reliability. The workshop focuses on critical components of the infrastructures that touch our everyday lives: operating systems, networking, security, wide-area and enterprise-scale distributed systems, mobile computing, etc. The workshop proceedings consist of position papers from both academic researchers and industry practitioners, to achieve a mix of long-range research vision and technology ideas anchored in immediate reality. |

Original Call for Papers | ||||||
Authors are invited to submit position papers to the First Workshop on Hot Topics in System Dependability. The goal of this workshop is to identify cutting-edge research ideas spanning the domains of fault tolerance and reliability (e.g., as reflected at conferences such as DSN and ISSRE) and systems (e.g., as reflected at conferences such as OSDI and SOSP). We are today at a historic confluence of interests between the two communities, with the former bringing decades of fault tolerance research into the domain of general purpose systems, and the latter taking an earnest interest in dependability. It is our hope that providing mutual sounding boards for plans for future research will benefit both communities and bring them closer together. The workshop will focus on critical components of the infrastructures touching our everyday lives: operating systems, networking, security, wide-area and enterprise-scale distributed systems, mobile computing, compilers, and language design. We seek participation and contributions from both academic researchers and industry practitioners, to achieve a mix of long-range research vision and technology ideas anchored in immediate reality. Position papers (max. 5 pages) should preferably fall into one of the following categories:
The program committee will favor papers that are likely to generate healthy debate at the workshop. Ideas do not have to be 100% fleshed out and/or entirely backed up by quantitative measurements, but must provide credible evidence that they are feasible and must be accompanied by a compelling motivation. Possible topics include, but are not limited to:
All accepted papers will be available online prior to the workshop and will be published in the supplement to the DSN proceedings. A summary of the workshop will be published in the DSN main proceedings. The workshop's homepage is at http://www.hotdep.org/2005/. Dates
Submitting a paper Position papers must be received by 11:59 PM Pacific Standard Time on March 1, 2005. Submissions should contain no more than 5 two-column pages, including all figures and references, single-space, using 11-point font, and 1-inch margins. To submit your paper, please email it in PDF or PostScript format to hotdep-chairs@lists.stanford.edu; receipt will be confirmed within 24 hours. Author names and affiliations should appear on the title page. |
