It is our pleasure to invite you to the 50th IEEE/IFIP International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks (DSN 2020) that will be held in Valencia (Spain).

Over the years, DSN has pioneered the fusion between dependability and security research, understanding the need to simultaneously fight against accidental faults, intentional cyber-attacks, design errors, and unexpected operating conditions. The conference is also providing a fruitful ground for academia and industry interaction.

This DSN edition will be very special not only because we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the conference, but also because it is the first time the conference comes to Spain, and more precisely to the city of València. The city is located on Spain’s eastern coast. It is situated on the shores of the Mediterranean, a stretch of water which has gradually forged the city’s character over the centuries. València’s geographical location makes it an excellent operational base from which to explore the rest of Spain. At just an hour and a half from Madrid by train, three hours from Barcelona by car, and with daily departures to the Balearic Islands, the capital of the Mediterranean is well worth a visit. Bask in the city’s pleasant climate, stroll along its wide sandy beaches, just fifteen minutes from the centre of València, catch a glimpse of its past, sample the local cuisine and discover the richness of its culture. Looking forward to meeting you in Valencia!
