About SSS
This year, SSS 2014 (Sep 29 - Oct 1) will be preceded by a
Tutorial Day on Self-organizing Physical Systems (Sep 28).
SSS is an international forum for researchers and
practitioners in the design and development of
distributed systems with self-* properties: (classical) self-stabilizing,
self-configuring, self-organizing, self-managing, self-repairing, self-healing, self-optimizing,
self-adaptive, and self-protecting.
Research in distributed systems is now at a crucial
point in its evolution, marked by the importance of dynamic
systems such as peer-to-peer
networks, large-scale wireless sensor networks, mobile ad hoc networks,
cloud computing, robotic networks, etc.
Moreover, new applications such as grid and web services, banking and
e-commerce, e-health and
robotics, aerospace and avionics, automotive, industrial process control, etc. have joined the
traditional applications of distributed systems.
The theory of self-stabilization has been enriched in the last 30 years by high
quality research contributions in the areas of algorithmic techniques, formal methodologies, model
theoretic issues, and composition techniques. All these areas are essential to the understanding
and maintenance of self-* properties in fault-tolerant distributed systems.
The SSS conference itself provides a wide spectrum of topics, covered
in the following tracks:
- Self-stabilization
- Fault-tolerance and Dependability
- Formal Methods, Safety, and Security
- Ad-hoc, Sensor and Mobile Networks, Cyberphysical Systems
- Cloud Computing, P2P, Self-organizing and Autonomous Systems
SSS 2014 will be published in the Springer LNCS series and is supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG).
