Keynote: Reliability for Software-Based Systems

Reliability has long been a topic of importance, but as systems become increasingly complex, missioncritical, and pervasive, the importance grows even more. Many of today's systems are software-based and it is important that relevant techniques for reliability as well as other "-ilities" are also applied to such software-based systems. This presentation will present a selection of such techniques that can be applied at various stages in the development lifecycle to predict and increase the reliability of software-based systems.
