and right 2 cm. The space between columns should be 1 cm.
Title in font size 10, bold, caps and centered.
Differently of the regular papers,the summary-papers must
include the author identification, affiliation, lab and involved projects.
The summary-papers must have the following organizational structure:
. Introduction;
. Declaration of the problem/research object;
. Description of the previous and related works,
showing why the problem is not yet well solved;
. Hypothesis and research questions [optional];
. Proposed solution;
. Method used to solve the problem;
. Research contribution;
. Research results;
. Conclusion;
. References.
Templates to write the papers are available at http://www.ssi.org.br
(link "authors"). The available formats are: Latex Unix,
Latex Windows, Star Office e MS Word (.rtf).
The template aims at facilitating formatting the
summary-paper in the required format.
-------------------------------------------------------------
ACCESS TO THE FULL TEXTS OF THESIS,
DISSERTATIONS AND UNDER GRADUATION
CONCLUSION WORKS
The candidates can make available in the web (via URL or FTP)
their full works, in .pdf format, for the more detailed
reading and evaluation by the committee - just in case some
committee member consider that relevant.
(these addresses should be informed during the submission)
Important to emphasize that the committee member is not
imposed to read the full texts - but read the summary-papers only.

Betreff: [Ifip_tcchairs] Position Papers on Developments in IT
Gesendet: Donnerstag, 14. September 2006 10:25 Uhr
Von: Sebastiaan von Solms <basie(a)rau.ac.za>
An: <Ron Waxman <r.waxman(a)computer.org>
, Ifip_tcchairs(a)ifip.org
Dear TC Chairs
During the process of creating a strategy for a 'New IFIP', it became
clear that IFIP must have more international exposure,
One way to do that is to make use of the expertise of TCs and WGs in the
following way :
All interested TCs/WGs are invited to produce one or more position
papers on the expert areas in which the TC or WG is active.
For eg, I have had several inputs from international people about the
importance of information infrastructures as part of national critical
infrastructures. TC 11 has a WG in this area. Maybe this WG can create
such a overview/position paper on this very 'hot' subject. The same
holds for eg for Identity Management.
If we can get 10 or 15 such good position papers (say about 15 papges
per paper) created by WGs over say the next 12 months, we can publish it
as an IFIP book/paper for international consumption. This may grow into
an annual or bi-annual series which can establish itself on
international level.
Of course this is voluntary as stated above. Nevertheless I think we can
get 10 to 15 papers over the next year * it is a little more than one
per TC, and some TC have 10 or more WGs.
Please approach your WGs, and determine the interest. I would like to
have a preliminary list of topics finalized by the end of this year so
that I can start approaching the publishers.
I hope to hear from you soon.

Basie

Dear all,
at the occasion of IFIP GA in Santiago the problem of hosting TC/WG websites
was discussed.
TC6 is particularly involved in this problem since our actual webmaster
(Herbert
Leitold) will not be able to continue his excellent work.
Basie von Solms (by the way: the new president elect of IFIP)
has written the following message - including a questionnaire.
Please study the message and the attachment.
This will be discussed further at the Paris meeting.
Best regards
Otto

Betreff: [Ifip_tcchairs] TC/WG Websites
Gesendet: Donnerstag, 14. September 2006 9:56 Uhr

Dear TC Chairs
At the last GA the idea of central hosting of TC and WG web sites was
discussed a number of times.
To advance this matter, I undertook to get some basic information from
TCs and WGs regarding the present situation. I drafted the attached
questionnaire, which I do not claim to be comprehensive and complete. I
may have missed some important qiestions, so please help if that is the
case.
Will you please complete the questionnaire for your TC and send the
questionnaire to all your WG Chairs so that they can have it completed
also.
I would like the replies back by end October. That will allow me to
draft some type of business/financial model (with input from some
experts) which we will then submit to the EB/FC for reaction by Council
2007.
I appreciate your help and input.
Regards
Basie

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
QoP 2006
2nd Workshop on Quality of Protection
Security Measurements and Metrics
URL: http://dit.unitn.it/~qop/
To be held in conjunction with CCS-2006
(13th ACM Conference on Computer and Communication Security)
October 30, 2006
Alexandria, VA USA
_____________________________________________________________
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This year’s QoP’06 (Quality of Protection Workshop – Security
Measurements and Metrics) workshop continues a roadmap towards the
establishment of scientific and technical methods for the quantitative
evaluation of a variety of security services, solutions and patterns.
The objective is to provide for Security Engineering the same set of
tools and techniques that are available in empirical Software
Engineering, Communication Engineering and other sister disciplines
and that mark the shift from arts to engineering.
The workshop called for original research results and industrial
experience reports on leading edge issues in security measurements and
metrics, including models, systems, applications, and theory. QoP’06
gives to academia and industry a unique opportunity to share their
perspectives with others interested in the various aspects of security
measurements and metrics.
