CALL FOR FAST ABSTRACTS

The seventh European Dependable Computing Conference (EDCC-7) aims at
providing a European-hosted venue for researchers and practioners from all
over the world to present and discuss their latest research achievements.
Contributions are solicited on theory, techniques, systems, and tools for
the design, validation, operation and evaluation of dependable computing
systems. All kinds of faults are of interest, from traditional hardware and
software faults to accidental and malicious human interactions.

Fast Abstracts are short presentations of work in progress or opinion pieces
(maximum 2 pages in standard template from the IEEE Computer Society). Fast
Abstracts aim to serve as a rapid and flexible mechanism to:

 - Report on current work that may or may not be complete

 - Introduce new ideas to the community

 - State positions on controversial issues or open problems

Contributions relevant to the topics of the conference are welcome from
academia and industry. Participants in this track will present a short talk
and publish a two-page abstract in the Supplement to the proceedings of the
conference. A Fast Abstract must be submitted in its final form, ready to be
printed. Fast Abstracts are limited to 2 pages, and the authors are required
to follow the IEEE Computer Society templates and instructions. Submissions
must be sent to the Fast Abstracts Chair, Jose Orlando Pereira, by e-mail
(jop at di.uminho.pt), in PDF format.

Fast Abstracts will not be refereed. Instead, the Fast Abstracts Chair and the
Conference Program Chair will lightly screen the submissions. The criteria for
acceptance will be: i) relevance and interest to the community, and ii)
arrival time. Therefore, authors are encouraged to send their submission well
in advance before the final deadline. We will accept as many Fast Abstracts as
possible; the amount is limited by the available presentation time at the
conference. By submitting a Fast Abstract, you are committing yourself or one
of your colleagues to present it at the conference.
