IEEE DASC 2026

The 24th IEEE International Conference on 
Dependable, Autonomic and Secure Computing

(Hybrid: On-site/Online)

November 9-13, 2026 - Melbourne, Australia

As computer and communication systems, as well as other systems such
as Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), Internet of Things (IoT), and
Autonomous Robotic Systems, become increasingly large and complex,
their Dependability and Security play critical roles in supporting
next-generation science, engineering, and commercial applications. It
remains a challenge to design, analyze, evaluate, and improve the
dependability and security of a large-scale computing
environment. Trusted and autonomic computing/autonomous systems need
synergistic research efforts covering many disciplines, from natural
to social sciences. It requires scientific and technological advances
in various fields, as well as new software, architectures,
communication, and data platform technology that support the
integration of the constituent technologies.

IEEE DASC 2026 will be held during November 9-13, 2026, in Melbourne,
Australia, co-located with IEEE CyberSciTech 2026, IEEE PICom 2026,
and IEEE CBDCom 2026. It aims to bring together computer scientists,
industrial engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange
theoretical and implementation results, novel designs,
work-in-progress, experience, case studies, and trend-setting ideas in
the areas of dependability, security, trust, and/or autonomic
computing, and autonomous systems.
