The construction of dependable and complex computer-based systems demands the interaction and involvement of industry and academy. Industry involvement is essential since it poses practical and challenging problems for academic researchers. Therefore, the main idea behind organizing the CCBS’09 is to provide a platform in which to discuss both theoretical and practical results relevant to the engineering of highly sophisticated and critical systems that are used in automotive, avionics, railway, naval, chemical, nuclear, manufacturing, and medical industries.

You are invited to submit a paper that documents research studies and applications related to the engineering of high-assurance systems in the aforementioned industries with special emphasis on using model-based design and testing paradigms. Papers reporting industrial experiences using methodologies and tools to manage the complexity of theses systems are especially welcome.

Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity, and soundness. All accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings and will be indexed in major on-line archives (including DBLP). Extended and revised versions of selected papers will be also published by The International Journal of Critical Computer Based Systems (IJCCBS).
