Annotation These proceedings from a June 2002 conference present new results from research and experiences in areas including hardware architecture and design, distributed computing, security and intrusion tolerance, software techniques, dependability modeling and evaluation, and networking. Other themes include failure detectors, Internet performance and dependability, and measurement and analysis of distributed systems. Specific topics include an adaptive decomposition approach for the analysis of stochastic Petri nets, self-organizing systems with self-diagnosability, process modeling to support dependability arguments, and secure intrusion-tolerant replication on the Internet. Work from the conference reflects an increased emphasis in the field on systems design and implementation. There is no subject index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
