Background & Key topics

The annual DESSERT conference began since 2006 and its primary focus has been on methodologies, techniques and tools for dependability, security and safety assessment and assurance of software, hardware, computer systems and IT-infrastructures. A lot of related DESSERT WSs covered different issues of dependable critical computing. DESSERT’2023 is responding to current major challenges relating to state-of-the-art information and communication technologies and paradigms such as Internet of Things, cloud and edge computing, AI and Big Data, robotics systems, etc.
Relevant areas of interest encompass regulations, analysis, modeling, development, verification, operation and maintenance of computer systems, networks and infrastructures for safety-, secure-, mission- and business-critical applications.
DESSERT’2023 is addressing the main theoretical, methodological and technological challenges related to Dependable, Resilient and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Everything and Robotic Systems for a Safe and Secure World. Authors are invited to submit original manuscripts demonstrating recent advances in all areas relevant to these challenges, including, but not limited to:
