International Symposium on Fault-Tolerant Computing (FTCS) and the
IFIP International Working Conference on Dependable Computing for Critical Applications (DCCA). The instance number for DSN is taken from FTCS which was first held in 1980 and annually thereafter.
A DSN Hall of Fame ranks the researchers by the number of papers that they have published in DSN.
* In 2020, the 50th DSN was to be held in Valencia, Spain and due to the Covid situation, was held virtually.
* In 2021, the 51st DSN was to be held in Taipei, Taiwan and due to the Covid situation, was held virtually.
* In 2022, the 52nd DSN was held in person in Baltimore, Maryland, United States.
* In 2023, the 53rd DSN is scheduled to be held in Porto, Portugal.
