RACOS 2010 - 1st International Workshop on Resilience Assessment of COmplex Systems (RACOS)

Welcome to the 1st International Workshop on Resilience Assessment of COmplex Systems (RACOS).

The RACOS Workshop is part of the 29th IEEE International Symposium on Reliable Distributed Systems (SRDS 2010) being held in November 1-3, 2010, IIT Delhi, DELHI, INDIA.

There will be exciting technical presentations and networking opportunities available at this workshop. The workshop aims at addressing the following topics: Techniques, approaches and formalisms for resilience assessment comparing results obtained by different assessment techniques in a given system; Design and use of tools for resilience assessment, Resilience measurement studies; Analytical, numerical and simulation techniques for resilience assessment; as well as their applications in the following areas: Distributed, parallel, clustered and grid systems; Real-time and embedded systems; Database and transactional systems; Operating systems, file and storage systems; Mobile and multimedia systems; Sensor, wireless and ad-hoc networks; Internet and web-based information services and systems; Secure and intrusion tolerant systems; Mission Critical systems and infrastructures, to name a few.

The main objective of this workshop is to concentrate ideas and contributions from both academia and industries in the field of resilient complex critical systems, stimulating scientific research and fostering discussions on approaches, methodologies and tools currently adopted for the resilience assessment of complex critical systems
