ARES CONFERENCE
************

The 14th 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.

Selected papers that are accepted by and presented at the ARES
Conference will be published, after further revision, in special
issues of international journals (e.g. Springer EURASIP Journal on
Information Security). The acceptance rate of the ARES 2018 conference
was 22,3% (full papers only). ARES 2018 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)
