Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems
The International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety, and Security in Distributed
Systems (SSS) is an international forum for researchers and practitioners working on
the design and development of distributed systems that guarantee specific desired
properties despite adversity, or that are able to restore the desired properties following
adversarial perturbations in the computing medium building on the principles of
self-stabilization. Research in distributed computing and distributed systems continues
its vibrant development, marked by the importance of dynamic systems, such as
peer-to-peer networks, large-scale wireless sensor networks, mobile ad hoc networks,
mobile agent computing, opportunistic networks etc. Moreover, new applications such
as grid and web services, banking and e-commerce, e-voting, e-health and robotics,
aerospace and avionics, automotive, industrial process control, have joined the
expanded landscape of distributed systems. It is becoming increasingly important to
endow all such systems with built-in means for self-management, self-protection, and
self-repair.
This volume contains the papers presented at the 17th International Symposium on
Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems, held August 18–21, 2015 in
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
This year the Program Committee was organized into several tracks reflecting most
topics related to the conference interests. The tracks are: Self-Stabilization,
Fault-tolerance and Dependability, Ad-hoc and Sensor Networks, Mobile Agents,
System Security in Distributed Computing, and Formal Methods and Distributed
Algorithms. We received 38 regular paper submissions. Each submission was reviewed
by at least three Program Committee members with the help of external reviewers. Out
of these 38 submissions, 16 papers were accepted for presentation at the symposium
and publication in the proceedings as regular papers. The proceedings also include
eight brief announcements.
