This book presents the latest key research into the performanceand reliability aspects of dependable fault-tolerant systems and featurescommentary on the fields studied by Prof. Kishor S. Trivedi during hisdistinguished career. Analyzing system evaluation as a fundamental tenet in thedesign of modern systems, this book uses performance and dependability ascommon measures and covers novel ideas, methods, algorithms, techniques, andtools for the in-depth study of the performance and reliability aspects ofdependable fault-tolerant systems. It identifies the current challenges thatdesigners and practitioners must face in order to ensure the reliability, availability,and performance of systems, with special focus on their dynamic behaviors anddependencies, and provides system researchers, performance analysts, andpractitioners with the tools to address these challenges in their work. Withcontributions from Prof. Trivedi''s former PhD students and collaborators, manyof whom are internationally recognized experts, to honor him on the occasion ofhis 70th birthday, this book serves as a valuable resource for all engineeringdisciplines, including electrical, computer, civil, mechanical, and industrialengineering as well as production and manufacturing.

The 22 full and 9 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 55 submissions. The contributions were organized in topical sections named: internet of things; security; smart city; ad-hoc networks; implementations and validations; wireless sensor networks; data management; wireless systems.
