 Introduction of the Workshop
 -----------------
 The International Workshop on Engineering Safety and Security Systems
 (ESSS) aims at contributing to the challenge of constructing reliable
 and secure systems. The workshop covers areas such as formal
 specification, (extended) type checking, model checking, program
 analysis/transformation, model-based testing and model-driven software
 construction. The workshop will bring together researchers and
 industry R&D expertise together to exchange their knowledge, discuss
 their research findings, and explore potential collaborations.
 
 
 Theme of the Workshop
 -----------------
 The main theme of the workshop is methods and techniques for
 constructing large reliable and secure systems. The goal of the
 workshop is to establish a platform for the exchange of ideas,
 discussion, cross-fertilization, inspiration, co-operation, and
 dissemination. The topics of the workshop include, but are not
 limited to:
 
 -- methods, techniques and tools for system safety and security
 -- methods, techniques and tools for analysis, certification, and
    debugging of complex safety and security systems
 -- model-based and verification-based testing
 -- emerging application domains such as cloud computing and
    cyber-physical systems
 -- case studies and experience reports on the use of formal methods
    for analyzing safety and security systems
 
 
 Submissions guidelines
 -----------------
 Paper submissions must be original, unpublished work. Submissions
 should be in made via the Easychair site:
 https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=esss2015.
 
 We invite two types of submissions:
 
 --Regular papers (up to 15 pages) describing original and unpublished
 work within the scope of the workshop.
 --Short papers (up to 6 pages) describing work in progress or less
 mature results.
 
 Case studies and tool papers are welcome as well. All submissions must
 be prepared in LATEX using the EPTCS macro package.
 
 The final versions of accepted regular and short papers will be
 published as a volume of Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical
 Computer Science (EPTCS). Furthermore, authors of a selection of the
 accepted papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their
 articles to a special issue of a high-quality journal, after the
 workshop. Publication of accepted articles requires the commitment of
 one of the authors to register for the workshop and present the paper.
