Call for Papers SSIRI 2010 Singapore, 9-11 June, 2010 http://paris.utdallas.edu/ssiri10 Technical Co-Sponsor, IEEE Reliability Society The Fourth IEEE International Conference on Secure Software Integration and Reliability Improvement, SSIRI 2010, is the fourth annual conference technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Reliability Society with a focus on software security and reliability. It brings together a wide range of researchers and practitioners to present their on-going ideas, experiences, and outcomes of most recent research, and to exchange their best-of-breed practices for developing reliable, secure, and trustworthy software systems in a more effective and efficient way. It not only allows the academic community to gain an increased awareness of the areas that are vital to the software industry, but it also grants practitioners an opportunity to express their needs. The conference will be held at the National University of Singapore with three major tracks: research papers, fast abstracts and the student doctoral program. Additional workshops with more focused topics will also be held concurrently.
