### Call for Papers ###
The WoSoCer workshop is a forum to discuss novel solutions for the assessment and
certification of software in critical systems, and to promote their adoption through
industrial and academic research projects.
We welcome contributions related to any area of critical software systems and certification.
Besides, this edition of the workshop encourages contributions to a special theme in security
and privacy certification, e.g., certification with respect to privacy concerns in the context of COVID-19 tracing apps.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Certification and assurance of systems and services
- Certification of software for emerging technological trends, including dynamic, autonomic, large-scale, and distributed systems
- Certification of third-party components, software reuse, and open-source software across systems and services
- Certification and best practices of software development processes in safety- and security-critical domains
- Quantitative and qualitative evaluation of system dependability and resilience
- Economics of certification and standards
- Adoption of emerging technologies and best practices in safety- and security-critical domains
- Open issues, practical experiences, and real-world case studies
- Cross-fertilization between safety and security certification and standards
- Certification in AI-based and ML systems
- Certification for Cyber-Security
Since 2011, WoSoCer has been a satellite event of the IEEE International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering (ISSRE),
a premier conference that emphasizes both academic excellence and industry impact.
Accepted peer-reviewed papers will be included in a supplemental volume of the ISSRE conference proceedings, published
by the IEEE Computer Society on IEEE Xplore.
