SASSUR 2026 – Deadline approaching

April 27th, 2026 Daniela Lopez de Luise
********************************************************************
13th International Workshop on Next Generation of System Assurance Approaches for Critical Systems – SASSUR 2026
September 22nd, 2026
In conjunction with the 45th International Conference on Computer Safety, Reliability and Security – SafeComp 2026
********************************************************************
IMPORTANT DATES
Paper submission: May 4th, 2026
Notification of acceptance: May 25th, 2026
Camera-ready submission: June 8th, 2026
********************************************************************
System assurance and certification are amongst the most expensive and time-consuming tasks in the engineering of critical systems, e.g., safety-critical, security-critical, privacy-critical, explainability-critical, sustainability-critical, mission-critical, and business-critical systems. Assurance can be defined as the set of planned and systematic actions necessary to provide adequate confidence and evidence that a system satisfies given requirements, e.g., for system safety or for compliance with some standards. Certification can be defined as the legal recognition that a system complies with standards and regulations designed to ensure that the system can be depended upon to deliver its intended service.
Assurance and certification of critical systems require the execution of complex and labour-intensive activities, such as the management of compliance with hundreds or thousands of criteria defined in standards, the management of a large volume of evidence artefacts throughout a system’s lifecycle to demonstrate compliance, or the provision of convincing and valid justifications that a system is dependable. Therefore, the companies developing critical systems or components, as well as the companies assessing the systems and components, need approaches that facilitate these activities and ideally increase their efficiency. The challenges arising from system assurance and certification are further growing as a result of the technological advancements of critical systems, e.g., towards open, interconnected, networked, intelligent systems. This poses new challenges in ensuring safety, as well as other dependability concerns such as security, availability, robustness, and reliability. In general, practitioners expect improvements in the available methods and tool support for system assurance and certification.
The SASSUR workshop is intended to explore new ideas on assurance and certification of critical systems. In particular, SASSUR will provide a forum for thematic presentations and in-depth discussions about specification, analysis, reuse, composition, and combination of assurance arguments, of assurance evidence, and of contextual information about critical products, in a way that makes assurance and certification more cost-effective, precise, and scalable.
SASSUR aims at bringing together experts, researchers, and practitioners from diverse communities, such as safety, security, privacy, explainability, and sustainability engineering, certification processes, model-based engineering, software and hardware design, critical systems, and application communities (transport, healthcare, industrial automation, robotics, nuclear, defence, etc.).

==================
Special Issue: Green and Sustainable Software
https://link.springer.com/collections/jjcbchfbhf
Automated Software Engineering Journal (Impact factor = 3.1)
The engineering of green software-intensive systems is critical in our drive towards a sustainable, smarter planet. The goal of green software engineering is to apply green principles to the design and operation of software-intensive systems. Green and self-greening software systems have tremendous potential to decrease energy consumption. Moreover, software can and should be re-thought to address sustainability issues using innovative business models, processes, and incentives. Monitoring and measuring the greenness of software is critical towards the notion of sustainable and green software. Demonstrating improvement is paramount for users to achieve and effect change. Analysis of the sustainability of a specific software system requires software that aids developers in weighing the four dimensions of sustainability—economic, social, environmental, and technical—with their attendant trade-offs. The software engineering community must assume leadership in this important challenge.

In this Special Issue, we will explore the theme of “green software engineering for software sustainability” with a goal towards creating actionable outcomes that will affect how software engineering is practiced and taught in the future, in order to help organizations prioritize their sustainability objectives.

Topics:

  • Energy-efficient choices for architecture and design patterns, algorithms, data structures, programming languages, language runtime and infrastructure.
  • Architectural implications (architectural tactics, architectural styles, design patterns and anti-patterns) for green and sustainable software
  • Practices for sustainability-aware software engineering
  • Metrics and measures for sustainability-aware software engineering
  • Sustainability-aware architectures in context (e.g., cloud-edge continuum)
  • Teaching and training of skills and competencies in sustainability-aware software engineering
  • Sustainable computing from a software engineering and software-intensive system perspective
  • Applied, or experimented with, software engineering methodologies at all levels (from requirements elicitation to architecture design, coding, testing, and maintenance)
  • Meta-analyses, and syntheses of studies to build theories on green and sustainable software; conceptual reflections related to software sustainability
  • Progress on the various dimensions of software sustainability and their interplay
  • Software adaptation for sustainability
  • Tools to support sustainability-aware decision-making
  • Sustainability of emerging computing technologies (AI systems, edge devices, generative AI-enabled applications)
  • Green AI, lighter, less data-intensive, and less energy-consuming AI models and architectures
  • Sustainable Large Language Models (LLMs) for software code
  • Green Agentic AI
  • Reduction of software organizations’ compute-heavy workloads
  • Cloud and energy efficiency
  • Standards on the environmental sustainability of software and AI software

Authors should prepare their manuscript according to the Instructions for Authors available from the Journal’s submission guidelines https://link.springer.com/journal/10515/submission-guidelines. Submitted papers should present original, unpublished work, relevant to one of the topics of the special issue. All submitted papers will be evaluated on the basis of relevance, significance of contribution, technical quality, scholarship, and quality of presentation by at least two independent reviewers. It is the policy of the journal that no submission, or substantially overlapping submission, be published or be under review at another journal or conference at any time during the review process.
