The Information Survivability Workshops
The Information Survivability Workshops provide a forum for researchers, practitioners, and sponsors to discuss the area of survivability, the nature of the unique (and sometimes not-so-unique) problems associated with survivability, and promising approaches to finding solutions to these problems.Previous Workshops
ISW has had a series of four IEEE-sponsored research workshops in survivability. For position papers and more information about past Information Survivability Workshops, see
- ISW-2001/2002
ISW 2001/2002 focused on impediments to the design, construction and deployment of survivable systems. It is the opinion of the organizers that these manifest themselves as economic, social, legal and policy issues as well as technical ones and it is our desire to engage participants in a constructive interchange directed towards overcoming these barriers.
- ISW '00
ISW '00 focused on contributions from researchers in related disciplines not traditionally associated with computer security (in particular, dependable computing and fault tolerance), to help us explore how these approaches can be used to build systems that are better able to survive attacks by intelligent adversaries.
- ISW '98
ISW '98 focused on the domain-specific survivability requirements and characteristics of four different critical infrastructure and critical application areas (banking, electric power, transportation, and military information systems).
- ISW '97
ISW '97 focused on identifying research areas that have the potential to make significant contributions to information survivability and clarifying fundamental issues associated with information survivability.
