[mycolleagues] Call for papers: STPSA 2007

von Dr. Sheikh Iqbal Ahamed

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2nd IEEE International Workshop on Security, Trust, and Privacy for Software Applications (STPSA 2007) in conjunction with COMPSAC 2007 Beijing, USA , July 24-27, 2007 http://conferences.computer.org/compsac/2007/workshops/stpsa.html MOTIVATION Information security has become a major concern for both pervasive and non-pervasive software applications. Software systems must be engineered with reliable protection mechanisms with respect to security, privacy, and trust, while still delivering the expected value of the software to their customers. The traditional approaches to secure a system (e.g., IDS, firewalls) are no longer sufficient to address many security, trust, and privacy (STP) issues. These issues should be addressed by building more effective STP-aware software applications. The principal obstacle in developing STP-aware software is that current software specification, design, implementation, and testing practices do not include adequate methods and tools to achieve security, trust, and privacy goals. As most systems now are Internet-based, the number of attackers is increased dramatically and threat scenarios have changed. Traditional security measures do not fit well for the software of pervasive applications. Since location and contexts are key attributes of pervasive applications, the privacy issues need to be handled in a novel manner than traditional software applications. The devices in pervasive computing leave and join in ad hoc manner in the pervasive network. These create a need for new trust models for pervasive computing applications. In this workshop, we will also welcome papers on the challenges and requirements of security, privacy, and trust for pervasive software applications. This workshop will focus on techniques, experiences and lessons learned with respect to the state of art for the security, trust, and privacy aspects of both pervasive and non-pervasive software applications along with some open issues. SCOPE OF THE WORKSHOP Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: Security, trust, and privacy specific software development practices Security, trust, and privacy requirements elicitation and specification Models and languages for STP-aware software specification and design Architecture for STP-aware software development STP challenges for pervasive software applications Testing security, trust, and privacy properties of both pervasive and non-pervasive software STP management and usability issues in software applications User interfaces for STP-aware pervasive and non pervasive software Software reengineering for security, trust, and privacy for both pervasive and non pervasive applications Tradeoffs among security, privacy, trust, and other criteria STP challenges in e-services, e.g. e-health, e-government, e-banking, e-commerce, e-marketing and other web-based and pervasive applications STP challenges in mobile software applications STP issues in sensor based software applications User interfaces for secure and privacy-aware pervasive computing applications STP-aware service discovery mechanisms for pervasive computing environments Models for ensuring security, trust, and privacy in pervasive software applications STP issues for handheld device software applications Teaching STP-aware software development Experience reports on developing STP-aware software IMPORTANT DATES February 23, 2007 deadline for paper submission March 30, 2007 notification of acceptance April 30, 2007 camera-ready due SUBMISSION Papers must be submitted electronically via the SPTPA 2007 Submission Page (will be available later). The format of submitted papers should follow the guidelines for the IEEE conference proceedings. All papers will be carefully reviewed by at least three reviewers. Papers can be submitted as regular papers (six pages), and the acceptance will depend on reviewer feedback. Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings of the 31st IEEE Computer Software and Applications Conference (COMPSAC 2007) by the IEEE CS Press. At least one of the authors of each accepted paper or fast abstract must register as a full participant of the workshop to have the paper or fast abstract published in the proceedings.

von Sajid Hussain

-------------------- Call for Papers -------------------- Special Session: Data Dissemination and Communication Protocols in Sensor Networks The Third IET International Conference on Intelligent Environments (IE'07), the University of Ulm, Germany, September 24-25, 2007. Website - http://www.uni-ulm.de/ie07/ (Special Sessions, Session #1) ------------- Description ------------- Sensor networks are used in various pervasive and ubiquitous applications. These networks usually consist of a large number of sensors that are deployed at remote and inaccessible places. As most of the sensors are wireless, energy-efficient data dissemination and communication protocols are needed; otherwise, batteries will rapidly drain and network connectivity and coverage will become unacceptable. On one hand, we want the sensor nodes to be active and monitor the environment. On the other hand, we want the sensor nodes to conserve their energy by sleeping significant amount of time. Further, depending on the application, robustness and responsiveness can be very critical. The objective of this special session is to provide an opportunity for academic researchers and industry practitioners to present and discuss experiences, emerging applications, and research results for data dissemination and communication protocols in sensor networks. --------- Topics --------- Topics include but not are limited to the following: - Energy-efficient data dissemination - Databases and query optimization - Routing protocols - Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols - Connectivity and coverage - Topology and Sleep Scheduling - Robustness - Security, privacy, and trust - Smart homes - Software design and architectures - Intelligent agent architectures - Machine learning and distributed data mining - Pervasive and ubiquitous systems and services - Industrial experience and emerging applications - Instructions for Manuscripts ------------ Submission ------------ Authors are requested to submit a PDF file for their manuscript following the submission guideline available at http://www.uni-ulm.de/ie07/. All manuscripts should be submitted through the conference submission system and choosing the area of the special session. The papers should also be emailed to the special session organizer for reference. 03-15-2007 - Paper Submission Deadline 05-15-2007 - Notification of acceptance/rejection 06-15-2007 - Camera ready papers due 07-15-2007 - Deadline for early bird registration --------- Contact --------- For more information please contact: Peter Graham, pgraham(a)cs.umanitoba.ca, University of Manitoba, Canada; Sajid Hussain, sajid.hussain(a)acadiau.ca, Acadia University, Canada

[mycolleagues] CFP: JSAC Special Issue on "Game Theory in Communication Systems"

von Jianwei Huang

Sorry for cross-posting ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications (JSAC) Special issue on "Game Theory in Communication Systems" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Game theory is a formal framework with a set of mathematical tools to study the complex interactions among interdependent rational players. For more than half a century, game theory has led to revolutionary changes in economics, and has found important applications in politics, sociology, psychology, and transportation. Recently, there has been a surge in research activities that employ game theory to model and analyze a wide range of problems in modern communication systems. This is mainly due to (1) the emergence of the Internet as a global platform for computation and communication, which has sparked the development of large-scale, distributed and heterogeneous communication systems; (2) the deregulation of the telecommunication industry and the dramatic improvement in computation power, which make it possible for various network entities to make independent and selfish operational decisions; and (3) the need for robust designs against uncertainties modeled as games between the user and a malicious nature. Game theory can help us better understand various complicated communication systems and design more efficient, scalable and robust communication protocols and resource allocation algorithms. The aim of this issue is to bring together the state-of-the-art research contributions that address the major opportunities and challenges of applying game theory to understanding and designing modern communication systems, with emphasis on both new analytical techniques and novel application scenarios. We seek original completed and unpublished work not currently under review by any other journal/magazine. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Game theoretical analysis/design of communication networks - Wireless resource allocation - DSL spectrum management - Network pricing - Peer-to-peer and overlay networks - Medium access control, routing, and congestion control - Information theoretical analysis - Cognitive radio networks - Security and privacy * Minimax robustness in communication systems - Minimax/maximin formulations - Worst-case robust designs - Saddle-point optimizations - H-infinity designs * Emerging game-theoretical models in communication systems - S-modular and potential games - Stackelberg and Wardrop equilibria - Coalition games and Nash bargaining models - Multi-stage and repeated games - Incentive compatible mechanism design (e.g., auction) * General game-theoretic methodologies and techniques - Efficiency loss compared with optimization model (i.e ., price of anarchy) - Games of imperfect or asymmetric information - Effects of bounded rationality - Learning mechanisms in games - Computation of Nash, correlated, and market equilibria - Preference elicitation and winner determination in combinatorial auctions Prospective authors should follow the IEEE J-SAC manuscript format described in the Information for Authors (http://www.jsac.ucsd.edu/Guidelines/info.html). All papers should be submitted in the PDF format (less than 1Mbyte in file size after compression) to EDAS (tentative submission plan, might change later), according to the following timetable: Manuscript Submission: August 1, 2007 Acceptance Notification: January 10, 2008 Final Manuscript Due: April 1, 2008 Publication: 4th quarter 2008 Guest Editors: * Jianwei Huang, Dept. of Electrical Engineering, Princeton University * Daniel P.
