Student Forum

The EDCC 2025 Student Forum is a vibrant and friendly environment where students can present and discuss their work, and exchange ideas and experiences with other students, researchers and industry. Students are invited to submit papers describing their potential and ongoing research at any stage, from ideas to results. One of the key goals of the Forum is to provide students with feedback on their preliminary results that might help with their future research directions.

Topics of interests include, but are not limited to:

  • Hardware and software architecture of dependable systems;
  • Dependability and security modelling, evaluation, benchmarking, and tools;
  • Safety-critical systems design and analysis;
  • Artificial Intelligence for dependability and security;
  • Fault-tolerant networks, protocols and systems;
  • Time-sensitive networks and ultra-reliable low-latency communication;
  • Mixed-criticality systems design and evaluation;
  • Testing and validation methods;
  • Dependability and security of:
    • Artificial Intelligence systems;
    • Cyber-physical systems, e.g. smart grids, intelligent vehicles, (Industrial) Internet of Things;
    • Cloud, fog, and edge computing systems;
    • Data analytics application;
    • Databases and distributed ledgers (including blockchains);
  • Data protection and data privacy;
