The 2011 IEEE Conference on Secure Software Integration and Reliability Improvement (SSIRI 2011)


Jeju Island, Korea

SSIRI 2011 is the fifth annual conference technically sponsored by the IEEE Reliability Society with a focus on software security and reliability. It brings together a wide range of researchers and practitioners to present their on-going ideas, experiences, and outcomes of most recent research, and to exchange their best-of-breed practices for developing reliable, secure, and trustworthy software systems in a more effective and efficient way. It not only allows the academic community to gain an increased awareness of the areas that are vital to the software industry, but it also grants practitioners an opportunity to express their needs. The conference was held at Jeju Island, Korea with three major tracks: research papers, fast abstracts and the student doctoral program. Additional workshops with more focused topics are also held concurrently. The acceptance rate is around 20%. Its 2012 conference name has been slightly changed to IEEE Conference on Software Security and Reliability (SERE), and a special issue for the conference will be published by IEEE Transactions on Reliability. Below are some photos taken in the conference. More details can be found at http://paris.utdallas.edu/ssiri11/ .
