Overview
HotDep '11 will bring forth cutting-edge research ideas spanning the domains of fault tolerance/reliability and systems, and will impact the two associated research communities ? i.e., researchers who attend traditional "dependability" conferences such as DSN and ISSRE, and those who attend "systems" conferences such as OSDI, SOSP, and EuroSys. The workshop will build links between the two communities and serve as a forum for sharing ideas and challenges. HotDep has been alternating between DSN and OSDI since 2005; for previous HotDep workshops, see http://www.hotdep.org/.
