INTRODUCTION
=============

DependSys-2025 conference is the 11th event in the series of conferences
which offers a timely venue for bringing together new ideas, techniques,
and solutions for dependability and its issues in sensor, cloud, and big
data systems and applications. As we are deep into the Information Age,
huge amounts of data are generated every day from sensors, individual
archives, social networks, Internet of Things, enterprises and Internet in
various scales and format which will pose a major challenge to the
dependability of our designed systems. As these systems often tend to
become inert, fragile, and vulnerable after a period of running.
Effectively improving the dependability of sensor, cloud, big data systems
and applications has become increasingly critical.

This conference provides a forum for individuals, academics, practitioners,
and organizations who are developing or procuring sophisticated computer
systems on whose dependability of services they need to place great
confidence. Future systems need to close the dependability gap in face of
challenges in different circumstances. The emphasis will be on differing
properties of such services, e.g., continuity, effective performance,
real-time responsiveness, corruption, anomaly, ability to avoid
catastrophic failures, prevention of deliberate privacy intrusions,
reliability, availability, sustainability, adaptability, heterogeneity,
security, safety, and so on.

DependSys-2025 will be hosted in Exeter, the capital city of Devon and
provides the county with a central base for education, medicine, religion,
commerce and culture. Prospective authors are invited to submit their
papers to DependSys-2025. All accepted papers are expected to be included
in IEEE Xplore and will be indexed by Engineering Index (EI). The authors
of selected best papers will be invited post conference to extend their
contributions for special issues of prestigious journals to be planned in
conjunction with the conference.



SCOPE AND TOPICS

================

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Track 1: Dependability and Security Fundamentals and Technologies

Track 2: Dependable and Secure Systems

Track 3: Dependable and Secure Applications

Track 4: Dependability and Security Measures and Assessments





PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINE
==========================

All papers need to be submitted electronically through the conference
submission website (https://hpcn.exeter.ac.uk/dependsys/) with PDF format.
The materials presented in the papers should not be published or under
submission elsewhere. Each paper is limited to 8 pages (or 12 pages with
over length charge) including figures and references using IEEE Computer
Society Proceedings Manuscripts style (two columns, single-spaced, 10
fonts).

Once accepted, the paper will be included into the IEEE conference
proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society Press (indexed by EI). At
least one of the authors of any accepted paper is requested to register the
paper at the conference.





CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS
==============================

DependSys-2025 is inviting proposals for high-quality workshops to
complement its scientific program. Workshop topics should fall within the
broad area of Dependability in Sensor, Cloud, and Big Data Systems and
Applications. The workshop organizers are highly encouraged to include
interactive and hands-on working sessions.

The organizers of approved workshops are responsible for advertising their
workshops, collecting papers, managing the review process, making accepted
papers available to workshop participants (e.g., workshop website).
Conference facilities such as meeting rooms, wireless Internet and meals
will be provided by the main conference local organizers.



WORKSHOP PROPOSAL SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

============================================

Workshop proposals should be formatted as a single PDF document of 1-2
pages, describing the following:

   - The full name and acronym of the workshop
   - A description of the theme of the workshop and its key topics
   - A tentative list of workshop chairs

·       A tentative CFP



To Submit: Please email your proposal to dependsys2025 at googlegroups.com
with the title “DependSys Workshop Proposal”.
