The 12th IEEE International Symposium on 
Pacific Rim Dependable Computing (PRDC'06)
at University of California, Riverside, USA
December 18-20, 2006
http://www.cs.iupui.edu/~ydai/PRDC06/


PRDC 2006 is the twelfth in this series of symposia started in 1989 that
are devoted to dependable and fault tolerant computing. PRDC is now
recognized as the main regular event of the Pacific area that is covering
the many dimensions of dependability and fault tolerance, encompassing
fundamental theoretical approaches, practical experimental projects, and
commercial components and systems. As applications of computing systems
have permeated in every aspects of daily life, the dependability of
computing system has become increasingly critical. This symposium provides
a forum for countries around the Pacific Rim and other areas of the world
to exchange ideas for improving the dependability of computing systems 
The symposium will be organized by the University of California,
Riverside, a city on the west coast of USA. The roots of the University of
California date back to 1907 when the California State Legislature
established the Citrus Experiment Station to conduct research on the
agricultural problems of Southern California. Riverside is fortunate to
have a wealth of sites and buildings that provide a link to the city's
past and a strong sense of place. Examples include the Mission Inn, the
Chinatown site, the National Packing House, Citrus Experiment Station and
engineering feats like the Gage Canal. Riverside is also close to some
famous sites including Disneyland, Beaches, and some big cities.
     Topics of interest include (but not limited to): 
     - Software and hardware reliability, testing, verification and
validation
     - Dependability measurement, modeling and evaluation
     - Safety-critical systems and software
     - Architecture and system design for dependability
     - Fault tolerant algorithms and protocols
     - Tools for design and evaluation of dependable systems
     - Reliability in Internet and Web systems and applications
     - Dependability issues in computer networks and communications
     - Dependability issues in distributed and parallel systems
     - Dependability issues in real-time systems, database and transaction
processing systems 
PAPER SUBMISSIONS
Manuscripts should be submitted in the following categories: Regular
Papers and Practical Experience Reports. Regular Papers should describe
original research (not submitted or published elsewhere) and be not more
than 20 double-spaced pages including figures and tables using 11-point
type. Practical Experience Reports (of 5-12 pages) should describe an
experience or a case study, such as the design and deployment of a system
or actual failure and recovery field data. The title page should include a
150-word abstract, five keywords, authors names and address and include a
line specifying whether the submission is a Regular Paper or a Practical
Experience Report. The full mailing address, phone, fax and email address
of the corresponding author should be specified. All submissions must be
made electronically. Additional submission opportunities are also possible
at a later deadline under the form of Fast Abstracts. Please visit our web
site for full submission instructions and updated information on the
symposium. http://www.cs.iupui.edu/~ydai/PRDC06/
