International Workshop on Systems and Network Security (SNS)
http: //www.cs.uccs.edu/~SNS/sns2005.html
In conjunction with the IEEE 19th IPDPS
Denver, Colorado, USA, April 4-8, 2005
------------------------------------------------------------------
SCOPE:
The proliferation of Internet services and applications is bringing
network and system security issues to the fore. The past few years have
seen significant increase in cyber attacks on the Internet, resulting in
degraded confidence and trusts in the use of Internet and computer
systems. There is a consensus that a key contributing factor leading to
cyber threats is the lack of integrated and cohesive strategies that
extend beyond the network level, to protect the applications and devices
at system level as well. Many techniques, algorithms, protocols and tools
have been developed in the different aspects of cybersecurity, namely,
authentication, access control, availability, integrity, privacy,
confidentiality and non-repudiation as they apply to both networks and
systems.
SNS-05 workshop aims to bring together the technologies and researchers
who share interest in the area of network and distributed system security.
It aims to provide a forum for scientists and engineers in academia and
industry to exchange and discuss their experiences, ideas, and research
results in security-related subjects. Topics of particular interest
include, but not limited to:
- Ad hoc and sensor network security
- Cryptographic algorithms and distributed digital signatures
- Distributed denial of service attacks
- Distributed intrusion detection and protection systems
- Firewall and distributed access control
- Grid computing security
- Key management
- Network security issues and protocols
- Mobile codes security
- Security in e-commerce
- Security in peer-to-peer and overlay networks
- Security in mobile and pervasive computing
- Security architectures in distributed and parallel systems
- Security theory and tools in distributed and parallel systems
- Video surveillance and monitoring systems
- Information hiding and multimedia watermarking in distributed systems
- Web content secrecy and integrity
Submission Guidelines and Publication:
SNS-05 workshop will occupy one full day of IEEE IPDPS 2005. There will be
no separate registration for the workshop. Authors are invited to submit
manuscripts reporting original unpublished research and recent
developments in the topics related to the workshop. Submissions should
include an abstract, key words, the e-mail address of the corresponding
author. The length of the papers should be 8 to 10 double-column
single-spaced pages including figures and references on 8.5 by 11 inch
paper using at least 10 point font in IEEE Proceedings Style. Papers
should be submitted electronically in PDF format via EDAS
(http://edas.info). Under certain circumstances, a paper can also be
submitted as an e-mail attachment to zbo@cs.uccs.edu. Submission implies
the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the
paper.
The accepted papers will be published in the same printed abstract volume
and CD-ROM proceedings as other workshops and the IPDPS 2005 conference by
the IEEE Computer Society Press and the IEEE online library. For further
information, please contact Prof. Cheng-Zhong Xu at czxu@wayne.edu or
Prof. Xiaobo Zhou at zbo@cs.uccs.edu.
