RISK workshop - Call for papers

Monday, June 15, 2015

The 3rd International Workshop on Risk Assessment and Risk-Driven Testing (RISK) will take place on June 15th 2015, in Berlin, Germany, in conjunction with the OMG Technical Meeting 2015. The workshop addresses systematic approaches that combine risk assessment and testing. We are interested in innovative techniques, tools and methods from industry or research, that cover systematic risk assessment, whether to obtain risk-optimized test configurations and specifications, to underpin risk analyses by means of experimental data from test results, or to enable domain-specific solutions that address specific kinds of risk (e.g. safety risks, security risks, business risks, legal risks). 

This year's edition has a special theme on expressing assurance cases for safety- and security critical systems. 

Scope and Interests (not limited to) 

  • Languages for capturing risk information 
  • Formal and semi-formal risk analysis techniques (FTA, FMEA , etc.) 
  • Continuous risk assessment and testing 
  • Risk-based/risk-oriented testing (including formal verification techniques) 
  • Test-based risk assessment 
  • Best practices/methodologies for integrating risk analysis and testing 
  • Support of standard-compliant quality assurance by risk-based testing (e.g., IEC 61508, ISO 26262, Common Criteria) 
  • Verification and validation of safety-/security-critical systems 
  • Risk-based testing leveraging model-based technologies 
  • Risk-based test automation and tool support 
  • Quality and quality improvement of risk-based test models 
  • Limitations and restrictions of integrated risk analysis and testing, its costs and economic impact 
  • Traceability and management of integrated risk analysis and testing 
  • Experience reports and industrial case studies 
  • Legal risk management 
  • Risk assessment to support regulatory compliance 

Accepted papers are expected to be published in a special RISK 2015 Springer LNCS volume as it was for the RISK 2013 edition.
