The IEEE Pacific Rim International Symposium on Dependable Computing (PRDC) will be held 
in TEMF Hotel(www.temf.co.kr), SEOUL, KOREA on December 17-19 2001. PRDC is a symposium 
for dissemination of state-of-the-art research and engineering practice in dependable 
computing with particular emphasis on systems and software. This will be the eighth 
of this series of international symposia, and its importance is ever increasing as computer 
and communication industries are recognizing dependability to be one of their top 
problems due to the heavy demands of the Internet. The city of Seoul is a mega-center of 
computer and communication academia/industry, and the conference will attract a variety 
of participants from all over the world for sharing up-to-date information on dependability 
issues and their applications for computer and communication. Complete information is 
available on the PRDC-2001 web site (http://monet.skku.ac.kr/prdc2001). 

Along with the conference, a workshop on the application of reliable computing and 
communication is held. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): 

Design for system dependability 
Fault-tolerant systems and software 
Fault tolerance for parallel and distributed systems 
Software and hardware reliability, verification and testing 
Dependability measurement, modeling and evaluation 
Safety and security of computing systems 
Tools for design and evaluation of dependable systems 
Implications of emerging technologies on dependable system design 
(e.g., deep sub-micron VLSI, pervasive computing) 
Application-specific dependable system 
(e.g., embedded systems, WWW servers, transaction processing) 
Dependability issues for storage and I/O systems 
Reliable communication system 
Reliability and QoS issues in multimedia 
Testing and verification 

Manuscripts should be submitted in the typical tow-column format 
as explained below. The manuscript will be reviewed, and the selected ones are included 
in a proceeding published by a local publishing company. Send the manuscript in PDF(preferred) 
or PS format to the workshop secretariat.

    The abstract is an essential part of the paper. Use short, direct, 
    and complete sentences. It should be as brief and concise as possible.
