TC6 budget for 2007

von Otto Spaniol

Dear all, please find enclosed a budget planning and a financial estimate for IFIP TC6 in 2007. These numbers had to be given to IFIP before July 7 in order to include them in the general financial planning which will be discussed at IFIP General Assembly in Santiago de Chile. With respect to event proceeds and royalties I'm rather pessimistic: More and more event are co-organised by IFIP (in such cases IEEE becomes the main sponsor very often) and royalties from sold books will disappear very soon. The TC6 funded expenses (best paper awards, student travel grants, tutorials in developing countries) are very similar to the respective cost in recent years. You will see that we will end up in a deficit if all conferences really ask for their BPA's etc. Please check the calculation and inform me if some items have been forgotten or if some entries might be cancelled. The budget will have to be discussed and hopefully approved at our next meeting in Paris (Sept. 29+30, 2006). Best regards Otto

WG6.8 + 6.10 + 6.2, Netw. 2008

von Otto Spaniol

Dear all, as agreed upon in Coimbra I have made the following actions: - inviting Pedro Cuenca (Spain) + Jozef Woniak (Poland) to submit proposals for 6.8 and to present the ideas at the occasion of the next meeting in Paris - inviting Josep Sole Pareta (Spain) + Ioannis Tomkos (Poland) to submit proposals for 6.10 and to present the ideas at the occasion of the next meeting in Paris. Thanks a lot to Ramon Puigjaner and to Jan Slavik who established the first contacts. Josep and Ioannis have already agreed to come to Paris. For 6.8 we had a suggestion for a third candidate (Mario Gerla or somebody else from the US scene); Guy Pujolle promised to establsih a contact. No response received yet. Guy Pujolle has started the nomination phase for a new chairman of 6.2 (as you knw, Guy has become the TC6 delegate of France as successor of Samir Tohme). Another topic is Networking 2008 (as you know, Networking 2007 will be held in Atlanta). We had initially suggested to have Networking 2008 in London. In the last meeting, however, it was decided to leave that decision open. Condidates should be invited to present their concepts in September in Paris. Guy Pujolle promised to ask Erol Gelenbe (London) about that. No response received thus far. I took the responsibility to contact Francis Lee (Singapore) who had submitted a bid for 2007 not knowing that the decision for Atlanta was already made long ago. Thus I wrote a message to Francis Lee. He reacted prompty saying that he is still very interested but that he has to discuss that in more detail with the organisation committee. Best regards Otto

Call For Participation: FCS-ARSPA'06 (Workshop on Foundations of Computer Security and Automated Reasoning for Security Protocol Analysis)

von Luca Vigano

FCS-ARSPA'06 Joint Workshop on Foundations of Computer Security and Automated Reasoning for Security Protocol Analysis co-located with LICS'06 as part of FLoC'06 Seattle, August 15 - 16, 2006 http://www.easychair.org/FLoC-06/FCS-ARSPA.html ****************************** *** CALL FOR PARTICIPATION *** ****************************** Overview Computer security is an established field of computer science of both theoretical and practical significance. In recent years, there has been increasing interest in logic-based foundations for various methods in computer security, including the formal specification, analysis and design of security protocols and their applications, the formal definition of various aspects of security such as access control mechanisms, mobile code security and denial-of-service attacks, and the modeling of information flow and its application to confidentiality policies, system composition, and covert channel analysis. The workshop FCS-ARSPA'06 is the fusion of two workshops. The workshop FCS continues a tradition, initiated with the Workshops on Formal Methods and Security Protocols (FMSP) in 1998 and 1999, then with the Workshop on Formal Methods and Computer Security (FMCS) in 2000, and finally with the LICS satellite Workshop on Foundations of Computer Security (FCS) in 2002 through 2005, of bringing together formal methods and the security community. The ARSPA workshop is the third in a series of successful workshops on Automated Reasoning for Security Protocol Analysis, bringing together researchers and practitioners from both the security and the formal methods communities, from academia and industry, who are working on developing and applying automated reasoning techniques and tools for the formal specification and analysis of security protocols. The aim of the joint workshop FCS-ARSPA'06 is to provide a forum for continued activity in these areas, to bring computer security researchers in closer contact with the LICS community, and to give LICS attendees an opportunity to talk to experts in computer security. INVITED SPEAKERS ================ - Andy Gordon (Microsoft Research) Provable Implementations of Security Protocols (Lics invited talk) - Martin Abadi (University of California at Santa Cruz) Access Control in a Core Calculus of Dependency ACCEPTED PAPERS =============== - Veronique Cortier, Graham Steel On the Decidability of a Class of XOR-based Key-management APIs - Mathieu Jaume, Charles Morisset Towards a formal specification of access control - Amit Walvekar, Manasi Kelkar, Melanie Smith, and Rose Gamble Determining Conflicts in Interdomain Mappings for Access Control - Massimo Benerecetti, Nicola Cuomo, and Adriano Peron Timed HLPSL for specification and verification of time sensitive protocols - Matthias Anlauff, Dusko Pavlovic, Richard Waldinger, and Stephen Westfold Proving Authentication Properties in the Protocol Derivation Assistant - Long Nguyen, Bill Roscoe Efficient group authentication protocols based on human interaction - Alan Jeffrey, Ruy Ley-Wild Dynamic Model Checking of C Cryptographic Protocol Implementations - Jonathan Millen, Joshua Guttman, John Ramsdell, Justin Sheehy, and Brian Sniffen Call by Contract for Cryptographic Protocols - DongGook Park, Colin Boyd, Byoungcheon Lee, and Hwankoo Kim Responsibility and Credit: New Members of the Authentication Family? - Romain Janvier, Yassine Lakhnech, and Laurent Mazare' Relating the Symbolic and Computational Models of Security Protocols Using Hashes - Philippe Balbiani, Yannick Chevalier, and mounira kourjieh Reasoning about Actions and Obligations - Prateek Gupta, Vitaly Shmatikov Key confirmation and adaptive corruptions in the protocol security logic - Johannes Borgstroem, Simon Kramer, and Uwe Nestmann Calculus of Cryptographic Communication - Aybek Mukhamedov, Mark Ryan On Asynchronous Multi-party Contract-Signing - Chamseddine Talhi, Nadia Tawbi, and Mourad Debbabi Execution Monitoring Enforcement Under Memory-Limitation Constraints - A.

Xiong, Publicity Chair, UbiSafe-07 Japan Advanced Inst. of Science & Technology Asahidai, Nomi, Ishikawa, 923-1211, JAPAN ---------------- CALL FOR PAPERS The 2007 IEEE International Symposium on Ubisafe Computing (UbiSafe-07) Niagara Falls, Canada, May 21-23, 2007 http://www.ubisafe.org/2007/ or http://www.cs.okstate.edu/ubisafe07 In conjunction with AINA-07: http://www.aina-conference.org/2007/ IMPORTANT DEADLINES: Paper Submission: November 30, 2006 Author Notification: January 22, 2007 Camera-Ready Papers: February 17, 2007 SYMPOSIUM INFORMATION: Computers are now available anytime, anywhere, by different means, and distributed unobtrusively throughout the everyday environments in which physical objects/artifacts embedded with invisible computers are sensible and networked locally and globally. Such "any" computers open tremendous opportunities to provide numerous novel services/applications in both real world and cyber spaces, and exist ubiquitously in our daily life, working, learning, traveling, entertainment, medicine, etc. Although it is yet unclear what exactly the real-cyber integrated worlds would be, there is no doubt that they must be safe. UbiSafe emphasizes the SAFE aspects for ubiquitous, pervasive, AmI, mobile, universal, embedded, wearable, augmented, invisible, hidden, context-aware, sentient, proactive, autonomic, or whatever it is called, computing. UbiSafe computing is focused on theories and technologies for ubiquitous artifacts to function safely for different purposes; for ubiquitous systems to work safely in various situations; and for ubiquitous environments to behave safely with all people. A series of challenges exist to let people benefit from ubiquitous services, and simultaneously guarantee their safety in making ubiquitous safe artifacts, systems, and environments. The UbiSafe-07 Symposium provides a forum for engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government to address all safety related profound challenges including technical, social, legal and ethical issues, and to present and discuss their ideas, theories, technologies, systems, tools, applications, work in progress and experience on all aspects of UbiSafe computing. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: * Fundamentals - UbiSafe concepts, definitions, basic elements, models, frameworks and methodologies, human-centric paradigms, multi-disciplinary/inter-disciplinary/trans-disciplinary approaches, semantics, ontologies, UbiSafe requirements and formal specifications and validations, information assurance, etc. * Technologies - Security and privacy protection, reliability and fault tolerance, risk analysis, uncertainty and exception handling, socially intelligent agents, intuitive/natural user interface, interaction design, context-awareness, intelligent computing, service-oriented computing, hardware, software, middleware, etc. * Systems - Embedded systems, wearable systems, augmented systems, context-based systems, communication systems, safety-critical systems, survivable systems, persistent systems, autonomous/autonomic systems, proactive systems, network infrastructure, sensor networks, etc. * Applications - Smart objects, smart environments, information appliance and artifacts, everyday gadgets, robots, safety care, healthcare, medical care and services, working, learning, traveling, entertainment, case studies, etc. * Measures and Assessments - UbiSafe attributes and measures for safety, trust, faith, amenity, easiness, comfort, satisfaction and worryness, UbiSafe levels and relations, UbiSafe quality, assessment criteria and authority, subjective and objective assessment standards, evaluation methodologies, testing, measuring and monitoring tools, etc. * Human Factors and Social Issues - Human and social aspects of UbiSafe, UbiSafe sources and factors, social rules, regulations and laws, human factors, human behavior analysis, modeling of human feelings, traditional and cultural issues, ethical issues, etc. SUBMISSION INFORMATION: Submit full papers not exceeding 20 pages in PDF format (IEEE Computer Society Proceedings Manuscripts style: two columns, single-spaced), including figures and references, using 10 fonts, and number each page.
