LADC is the major Latin-American event dedicated to discussing the<br>
many issues related to computer system dependability. This fifth<br>
edition will be held in São José dos Campos, São Paulo, Brazil. The<br>
LADC program will present technical sessions including regular papers and
practical experience reports, workshops, student<br>
forum, tutorials, industrial tracks, and keynote talks from top<br>
international experts in the area. The symposium scope spans system,<br>
software, and hardware dependability research and technological<br>
challenges. Major topics include, but are not limited to:<br>
<br>
• Engineering dependable systems: hardware, networking, software,<br>
deployment, and maintenance;<br>
• Dependability of hardware: fault tolerant architectures, multi-core<br>
systems, virtualization, nanoscale computers, hardware dependability<br>
assessment;<br>
• Dependability of software: frameworks and software architectures for<br>
dependability, runtime monitoring, adaptation, model driven<br>
dependability engineering, testing, verification, software<br>
certification;<br>
• Dependability of networks: LAN, WAN, mobile, ad-hoc, sensor<br>
networks, protocols;<br>
• Dependability of data: storage, databases;<br>
• Dependability of maintenance: tuning performance and availability,<br>
security configuration;<br>
• Dependability and human issues: human-computer interaction,<br>
management of complex systems;<br>
• Security: foundations, policies, protocols, access control,<br>
intrusion detection, intrusion tolerance;<br>
• Safety: incidents &amp; accidents, risk perception and analysis,<br>
safety-critical applications and systems;<br>
• Critical infrastructure protection;<br>
• Algorithms and methods for dependable and secure computing;<br>
• Dependability and security modeling, measurement and benchmarking.<br>
<br>
Only original papers (not published or under review elsewhere) should<br>
be submitted. All submissions must be made electronically through the<br>
conference web site. There will be an award for the best paper of the<br>
conference. The conference proceedings, including Regular papers and practical
experience reports,  will be published by the IEEE CS (tentative).
Papers submitted in the other categories will be published in a supplemental
volume. <br>
