CALL FOR PAPERS

1st International Workshop on Security, Privacy and Trust in Pervasive and
Ubiquitous Computing

July 14, 2005, Santorini Island, Greece

In conjunction with the IEEE ICPS'2005

 

Aims and Scope

The proliferation of computing artifacts into the physical world promises
more than spontaneous availability of computational resources to end users;
it suggests new paradigms of interaction inspired by constant access to
information and computational resources. The ongoing compactness of computing
facilities into small mobile devices like portables, handheld or wearable
computers will enhance a ubiquitous information processing. The basic
paradigm of such a pervasive computing environment is the utilization of
distributed computing power through devices that allow spontaneous
connectivity. Computers will become invisible to the users and exchange of
information between devices will effectively defy users control. The new
security and privacy risks introduced by such environments need to be reduced
by exploiting appropriate security measures and safeguards, ensuring an
acceptable level of overall residual hazard.

The objectives of the SecPerU 2005 Workshop are to develop new security,
privacy and trust concepts for complex application scenarios based on systems
like handhelds, phones, and smart cards with the emerging technology of
ubiquitous and pervasive computing.

 

List of topics

We welcome the submission of papers from the full spectrum of issues related
with Security, Privacy and Trust in Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing.
Papers may focus on architectures, methods, technologies, protocols,
prototype developments, case studies, applications, practical experiences,
simulation results and analysis, theory and validation on topics include, but
not limited to:

 

Reasoning about Security, Privacy and Trust

Analysis and verification of protocols

Privacy and Anonymity

Security and Privacy requirements

Models for access control, authentication, and privacy management

Security and Privacy models for Pervasive Information Systems

Security and Privacy features into mobile and wearable devices

Secure collaboration in uncertain environments

Authorization and information flow

Developing security policies

Developing secure infrastructures

Trust and reputation management

Hardware architectures

Location Privacy in Pervasive Computing

Smart devices and applications

Role of Sensors to enable security

Auditing and forensic information management in pervasive settings

Case Studies

 

Paper Submission and Proceedings

Authors are invited to submit original manuscripts, which should be written
in English and with a very precise and concise presentation of no more than
10 pages in IEEE double-column format. Reviewers are not required to read the
appendices and the paper should be intelligible without them. Authors are
invited to send their manuscripts as an attachment (PDF/PS format) by email
to the Workshop Chairs at: spu2005@di.uoa.gr . Submission implies the
willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper.
The SecPerU05 Workshop Proceedings will be distributed at the Workshop.
