Welcome to the first annual Dependable Systems and Failure Tolerance Workshop, to be held on Thursday July 31st in conjunction with the IEEE Space Computing Conference (SCC). The goal of the workshop is to bring together the NASA avionics community, industry, and academia to share new techniques for increasing the resilience of spacecraft and other safety-critical systems, as well as to discuss some of the most significant challenges facing the discipline. The overall theme of this year’s workshop is “how do we make systems safe when increasingly pressured to reduce costs?”
The workshop will consist of invited talks from distinguished speakers across our community, each focusing on a different aspect of failure-tolerant avionic system design and working on different types of missions (e.g., space stations, launchers, military aero). Specific topics to be covered include using formal methods to prove the correctness of distributed algorithms and designing new fault-tolerant algorithms to meet the needs of emerging missions.
The tentative schedule of the workshop is below.
