The 45th International Symposium on Reliable Distributed Systems (SRDS 2026) is a forum for researchers and practitioners interested in distributed systems design, development and evaluation, with an emphasis on reliability, availability, safety, dependability, security, verification, and real-time aspects.<\/p>\n
We welcome the following types of submissions:<\/p>\n
Papers will be assessed using criteria appropriate to each category.<\/p>\n
(All deadlines are at 23:59 AOE)<\/p>\n
Papers must be written in English. Research Papers, Practical Experience Reports, and Tool Papers should be no longer than 10 pages, <\/span>excluding references<\/b> for which there is no page limit, following the IEEE two-column format for conference proceedings. Additional details to substantiate the main claims of the paper, such as proofs, data tables or code snippets can be included in a clearly marked appendix beyond the page limit, and read at the reviewers\u2019 discretion. Authors are requested to first register their submissions with a title and abstract, and then submit their manuscripts in PDF format on the submission page.<\/span><\/p>\n SRDS is a double-blind conference.<\/b>\u00a0 As an author, you are required to make a good-faith effort to preserve the anonymity of your submission while at the same time allowing the reader to fully grasp the context of related past work, including your own. It is recognized that, at times, information regarding the identities of authors may become public outside the submission process (e.g., if a preprint is published as a technical report or on a preprint server). The PC will ignore this external information. Minimally, please take the following steps when preparing your submission:<\/span><\/p>\n Submissions that do not conform to the above anonymization and formatting guidelines (e.g., are too long, use fonts or line spacing smaller than what is indicated) or are unoriginal, previously published, or under submission to multiple venues concurrently, will be desk rejected without review.<\/span><\/p>\n All submitted papers will be judged based on their quality and relevance. Evaluation criteria include originality, technical soundness, significance of the contribution, and clarity of the presentation, as well as the quality and completeness of the substantiation of the paper\u2019s claims, whether formal, analytical or experimental.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If you have any questions regarding paper submission, please do not hesitate to contact the conference PC Chairs:<\/span><\/p>\n\n
