PURPOSE and SCOPE
A resilient system is a system that can, in the face of unknown, large-scale events, recover from the failures and maintain its functions. It is known that many systems, such as biological systems, human mind, social systems, and dependable engineering systems exhibit this property. However, it is not clear how we should identify general “resilience” properties or strategies applicable to systems in many different domains. The purpose of this workshop is to bring the insights from various fields of resilient systems and explore common research challenges and design principles in the new discipline of “systems resilience.”
TOPICS OF INTEREST
The workshop addresses (but is not limited to) the following topics:
* Resilience definitions and metrics
* Risk management and vulnerability analysis in complex systems
* Case studies for resilient or non-resilient systems
* Recovery-oriented and autonomic computing
* Self-healing systems
* Bio-inspired adaptation and diversification techniques
* Resilient networks
* Modeling and simulation techniques for resilient systems
* Business continuity plan and dynamic policy management
* Human factors in resilient systems
* Organizational or social resilience
SUBMISSION
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Submissions should be at most 12 pages in the IEEE Computer Society two-column camera-ready format. The workshop will also consider short submissions of up to 4 pages for position papers.
