Sinopsis

This volume contains the papers presented at the Second International Work­ ing Conference on Dependable Computing for Critical Applications, sponsored by IFIP Working Group lOA and held in Tucson, Arizona on February 18-20, 1991. In keeping with the first such conference on this topic, which took place at the University of California, Santa Barbara in 1989, this meeting was like­ wise concerned with an important basic question: Can we rely on Computers? In more precise terms, it addressed various aspects of computer system de­ pendability, a broad concept defined as th’e trustworthiness of computer service such that reliance can justifiably be placed on this service. Given that this term includes attributes such as reliability, availability, safety, and security, it is our hope that these papers will contribute to further integration of these ideas in the context of critical applications. The program consisted of 20 papers and three panel sessions. The papers were selected from a total of 61 submissions at a November 1990 meeting of the Program Committee in Ann Arbor, Michigan. We were very fortunate to have a broad spectrum of interests represented, with papers in the final program coming from seven different countries, representing work at universities, corporations, and government agencies. The process was greatly facilitated by the diligent work of the Program Committee and the quality of reviews provided by outside referees. In addition to the paper presentations, there were three panel sessions or­ ganized to examine particular topics in detail.

Reseña del editor

This book contains the twenty papers presented and discussed at the 2nd IFIP Working Conference on Depend- able Computing for Critical Applications. Based on the feedback at this meeting, the papers were revised and updated prior to inclusion in this volume. The topics addressed span the spectrum of dependable computing, from design methods for distributed, fault-tolerant systems to formal and experimental validation techniques. The unique focus of this forum on critical applications is what distinguishes many of these papers from those found elsewhere. This book should be of interest to those involved in the development of computing systems where dependability attributes such as reliability, safety, and security are a major concern.
