CALL FOR PAPER
3rd International Workshop on Risk Assessment
and Risk-Driven Testing (RISK)

June 15th 2015 – Berlin, Germany
In Conjunction with the OMG Technical Meeting 2015

Submission deadline: 5th April, 2015 (anywhere on earth)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The third international workshop on Risk Assessment and Risk-driven
Testing (RISK) 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


Submission and Publication Information
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Prospective authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting
original unpublished research and recent developments in the
topics related to the workshop. Submissions are intended to fit
into one of the following sections:

Long papers (16 page):
This format will be used for papers on original research
results in the domain of risk assessment and
risk-driven testing.
Short papers (10 page):
This format will be used for papers on novel techniques, ideas
and positions that have yet to be fully developed

All contributions to RISK have to be submitted electronically in PDF
format via EasyChair. All submissions have to follow the Springer
LNCS paper format.

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