The Nineteenth International Workshop on Assurance in Distributed Systems and Networks

ADSN 2020


Computer Networks & Wireless Communication



ADSN 2020 will be held in conjunction with the 18th IEEE
International Conference on Dependable, Autonomic and Secure
Computing (DASC 2020), Calgary, Canada, June 22 – 26, 2020.
(see for details http://cyber-science.org/2020/dasc/).
ADSN 2020 is the nineteenth edition of this International Workshop
demonstrating its long-term continuity and continuously received
recognition. The objective of the Workshop is to provide an
effective forum for original scientific and engineering advances
in Assurance in Distributed Systems and Networks. Along with
recent rapid growth of the Internet and ubiquitous networks,
applications for autonomous decentralized systems are emerging in
many important areas like transportation, automotive systems,
smart energy grids and the Internet of Things (IoT) to name a few.
In these distributed systems and networks, heterogeneous
requirements are independently generated and the requirements
themselves are frequently changing. Assurance in these distributed
systems and networks is defined as capability of guaranteeing
functional and non-functional system properties such as
dependability, security, timeliness and adaptability in
heterogeneous and changing environments. The workshop theme is
critical in meeting ever more demanding requirements for assurance
in systems and networks. Technologies supporting assurance
including integration of various fields such as real time, fault
tolerance, autonomy, mobility and intelligence will have to be
incorporated in complex distributed systems and networks.
Topics of interest for this workshop include, but are not limited to:
- Assurance technologies for new generation networks
- Assurance in cooperative embedded, grid, and cloud computing systems
- Assurance in service-oriented and web-service based computing systems
- Critical infrastructure protection
- Heterogeneous systems coexistence and consistency technologies
- Network control (QoS, QoE, CoS, etc) technologies for assurance
- Self-stabilization and sensor networks assurance
- Agents technologies for assurance
- Assurance in safety-critical automotive and avionic systems
- Software and hardware technologies for assurance in intelligent
transportation systems, train control, and space computers
- System life-cycle assurance in specification, design, implementation,
testing, verification, and validation
- Assurance in IoT systems
- Security technologies for assurance
- System management and proactive fault management technologies for assurance
- Technologies for achieving high assurance in complex systems
