Dependability 2020 aims to bring together computer researchers and engineers to discuss and exchange theoretical and experimental results, novel designs, works-in-progress, experiences, and case studies in the areas of dependability, resilience and/or autonomics in computing systems.

Topics of particular interests include the following areas, but are not limited to:

• Dependability Models and Evaluation Algorithms
• Software Engineering for Dependable Systems
• Hardware and Software Reliability, Verification and Testing
• Self-improvement in Dependable Systems
• Self-healing, Self-protection and Fault-tolerant Systems
• Dependable Automatic Control Techniques and Systems
• Dependable Sensors, Devices, Embedded Systems
• Dependability and Autonomic Issues in Ubiquitous Computing
• Dependability and Autonomic Issues in Cyber-Physical System
• Dependability and Autonomic Issues in Big Data
• Dependability and Resilience of Computing Systems
• Dependability and Resilience for Critical Infrastructures
• Dependability and Resilience for Smart Grids
• Dependability and Resilience for the Internet of Things
• Dependability and Resilience for Special Applications
