5–8 November 2017, Boston, Massachusetts, USA
19th International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems (SSS 2017)
SSS is an international forum for researchers and practitioners in the design and development of distributed systems with a focus on systems that are able to provide guarantees on their structure, performance, and/or security in the face of an adverse operational environment.
Research in distributed systems is now at a crucial point in its evolution, marked by the importance and variety of dynamic distributed systems such as peer-to-peer networks, large-scale sensor networks, mobile ad-hoc networks, and cloud computing. Moreover, new applications such as grid and web services, distributed command and control, and a vast array of decentralized computations in a variety of disciplines has driven the need to ensure that distributed computations are self-stabilizing, performant, safe and secure.
The symposium takes a broad view of the self-managed distributed systems area and encourages the submission of original contributions spanning fundamental research and practical applications within its scope, covered by the three symposium tracks: (i) Stabilizing Systems: Theory and Practice, (ii) Distributed Computing and Communication Networks, as well as (iii) Computer Security and Information Privacy.
