ARES 2020 - Call for Papers

                                                   The 15th International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (ARES 2020)

August 25 – August 28, 2020; University College Dublin, Dublin, Ireland

ARES & CD-MAKE steering committee is closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation all around the globe and is taking every possible measure to ensure participants safety, and, at the same time, the success of this year´s conference at UCD Dublin.

Therefore, we decided on the following steps:

• The submission deadline, of ARES & CD-MAKE is extended to April 15, 2020
• In case authors cannot be present at the conference, they will be allowed to present their work virtually to ensure both the safety of participants and wide dissemination of their work. We will announce further instructions regarding this in the due time. 
• To allow more time to prepare the papers, we will switch to post-conference proceedings, they will be available after the conference.
• The adapted deadlines can be found here: CD- MAKE, ARES

We are able to guarantee that ARES & CD-MAKE 2020 will be published by the International Conference Proceedings Series published by ACM ICPS (ARES) & Springer LNCS (CD-MAKE); even if we have to switch to an all-digital meeting.

If you have any questions, contact us (ares@sba-research.org).

ARES Conference

The 15th International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (“ARES – The International Dependability Conference”) will bring together researchers and practitioners in the area of dependability. ARES will highlight the various aspects of dependability – with special focus on the crucial linkage between availability, reliability and security.

ARES aims at a full and detailed discussion of the research issues of dependability as an integrative concept that covers amongst others availability, safety, confidentiality, integrity, maintainability and security in the different fields of applications.

ARES will emphasize the interplay between foundations and practical issues of dependability in emerging areas such as e-government, m-government, location-based applications, ubiquitous computing, autonomous computing, chances of grid computing etc. ARES is devoted to the critical examination and research challenges of the various aspects of Dependable Computing and the definition of a future road map.

The acceptance rate of the ARES 2019 conference was 20,75% (full papers only). ARES 2019 was published by the International Conference Proceedings Series published by ACM (ACM ICPS).

ARES is ranked as B-conference in CORE. Qualis (backed by Brazilian Ministry) ranked ARES and ESORICS as leading security conference in Europe (A2)
