Architecting Dependable Systems II
As software systems become ubiquitous, the issues of dependability become more and more critical. Given that solutions to these issues must be taken into account from the very beginning of the design process, it is appropriate that dependability is addres

Foreword
Enforcing the dependability of software systems has been a very active and productive area of research for over 30 years, addressing support for fault prevention, fault tolerance, fault removal and fault forecasting. Such an effort has in particular led to introducing a number of dependability concepts, and related principled methods and tools guiding the structuring of dependable systems, and further allowing reasoning about the systems’ dependability. As such, research results in the dependability area impact upon the overall software development process. However, dependability has for long been considered as an aside property in the development of software systems, except for specific classes of systems such as safety-critical systems that cannot tolerate unexpected behavior following t
