The 4th International Conference on Reliability, Safety and Security of 

Railway Systems will be held on the 1st and 2nd of June 2022, in 

the International Union of Railways Congress Center, Paris.

 

In 2021 the RSSRail conference was replaced by a special issue of 

the "Formal Aspects of Computing" journal. 

 

RSSRail 2022 will address challenges currently faced by the railway 

industry such as:

* improving system safety

* decreasing production costs and time to market

* reducing carbon emissions and running costs

* increasing the capacity of the railway.

 

Railway systems are now being integrated into larger multi-transport networks. 

Such systems require an even higher degree of automation at all levels of 

operation. These trends dramatically increase the complexity of railway 

applications and pose new challenges in developing novel methods of modelling, 

analysis, verification and validation to ensure their reliability, 

safety and security, as well as in supporting novel mechanisms and procedures 

to help make the case that development processes meet the mandated standards. 

 

The RSSRail 2022 conference will build on the success of RSSRail 2016

(June 28-30, Paris, France) that took place in the Maison de la RATP, 

RSSRail 2017 (November 14-16, Pistoia, Italy) and RSSRail 2019

(June 4-6, Lille, France), and will contribute to a range of key objectives.

 

Development of the complex railway systems of the future requires integrated 

environments and methods that support different abstraction levels and 

different views, including:

* systems architecture

* safety analysis

* security analysis

* verification tools and methods.

 

The conference aims to bring together researchers and engineers interested 

in building critical railway applications and systems. This will be a working 

conference in which research challenges and progress will be discussed and 

evaluated by both researchers and engineers, focusing on their potential 

to be deployed in industrial settings.

 

Topics of particular interest include:

* safety in development processes and safety management

* combined approaches to safety and security

* system and software safety analysis

* formal modelling and verification techniques

* system reliability

* validation according to the standards

* safety and security argumentation

* fault and intrusion modelling and analysis

* evaluation of system capacity, energy consumption, cost 

    and their interplay

* tool and model integration, toolchains

* domain-specific languages and modelling frameworks

* model reuse for reliability, safety and security

* modelling for maintenance strategy engineering.

 

Submissions

We can accept three types of submission:

* Research papers – not more than 16 pages in length

* Industrial experience reports – not more than 10 pages in length

* PhD student papers – not more than 10 pages in length.

 

To submit your paper please go to the conference submission site

Submissions must be formatted in the Springer LNCS format

Accepted papers will be published by Springer in a volume in 

the LNCS series. 

 

Important dates

* November 25th, 2021 – abstract submission

* December 2nd, 2021 – full paper submission

* February 1st, 2022 – notification

* March 1st, 2022 – camera-ready papers submitted

Data entirely hand-typed, one call for papers at a time. There is no scraper behind any of this: I read the announcement and type the dates in, in the gaps between other work, and with the hope it is useful to others. Organisers then move deadlines without telling anyone, calls get edited in place, and now and then the typing is simply wrong. Treat this as a well-meaning notebook rather than an authority, and check the conference’s own page before you submit anything you care about.
