Security and Dependability for Ambient Intelligence is the primary publication for the SERENITY approach which provides security and dependability (S&D) solutions for dynamic, highly distributed and heterogeneous systems. The term Ambient Intelligence identifies an ambitious vision for pushing technological developments, that will enable heterogeneous networked systems and devices with computing capabilities (cars, house applications, mobile phones etc.). The objective of SERENITY is to enhance the security and dependability of ambient intelligence systems by providing a...

As software systems become ubiquitous, the issues of dependability become more and more crucial. Given that solutions to these issues must be considered from the very beginning of the design process, it is reasonable that dependability is addressed at the architectural level. This book was born of an effort to bring together the research communities of software architectures and dependability.

This state-of-the-art survey contains expanded and peer-reviewed papers based on the carefully selected contributions to two workshops: the Workshop on Architecting Dependable Systems (WADS...
