The workshop aims to provide a forum for presenting and discussing recent work, as well as ongoing and planned projects. The workshop will consist of a number of short presentations and discussion on current research, hot topics, position statements, and controversial opinions, as well as practical demonstrations. The workshop is in the spirit of the IEEE workshop series on High Speed Networking (c.f. http://www.comsoc.org/tcgn/activities.html ), and aims to be relatively small (not more than 60 participants), with a considerable amount of time devoted to informal discussion. The topics of the workshop include but are not limited to: - high-speed network monitoring - network anomaly detection - denial of service attack detection and mitigation - intrusion and worm detection - attack response mechanisms - policy based mechanisms for detection and response - high speed firewalling technology - network honeypots - use of overlay and peer-to-peer networks for detection and mitigation - detection and mitigation of attacks in overlay networks - attack detection and mitigation in mobile networks The workshop format will include invited keynote presentations as well as short presentations selected from the submissions. Accepted submissions will be published in workshop proceedings with ISBN number and will be made available on the Web. INFORMATION TO CONTRIBUTORS The following types of contributions are invited: - Research papers of up to 6 pages, presenting original, recent and innovative research results or developments within the scope of the workshop. - Extended abstracts of up to 3 pages, presenting ongoing or planned projects, work in progress, or small yet novel research results. - Demonstrations that present original developments. Demonstration submissions should be short, specifying the functionality of the demonstrator, and stating the technical requirements in terms of space and equipment. - Panel proposals. We welcome proposals for panels of high relevance to the workshop. Panels are expected to be composed of a moderating chair plus approximately three panelists. A one to two page abstract suitable for inclusion in the proceedings should accompany the proposal. Submissions are reviewed, and selected contributions will be included in the workshop proceedings. Submissions of papers and extended abstracts are due by 19 June 2006. Submissions must be in PDF. Please use the IEEE INFOCOM formating guidelines, for which a sample manuscript is available at: http://www.ieee.org/organizations/pubs/confpub/auxfiles/sample_manuscript.p… Templates and submission instructions are available at: http://www.diadem-firewall.org/workshop06/ Submission of electronic versions of the presentation slides is due by 15 September 2006. These slides will be included in the on-line proceedings of the workshop, which will be compiled in advance of the event. All submissions have to be provided via web upload according to the instructions available at: http://www.diadem-firewall.org/workshop06/ DATES Submission deadline: 19 June 2006 Notification of Acceptance: 10 August 2006 Submission of camera-ready papers and slides: 15 September 2006 Workshop dates: 28 and 29 September 2006 ORGANISING COMMITTEE General Chair: Georg Carle, University of Tuebingen http://net.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/en/members/carle/ Program Chairs: Morris Sloman, Imperial College London http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~mss/ Olivier Paul, INT - Institut National des Telecommunications http://www-lor.int-evry.fr/~paul_o/ PROGRAM COMMITTEE (tentative) Ehab Al-Shaer, DePaul University Torsten Braun, University of Bern Georg Carle, University of Tuebingen Joachim Charzinski, Siemens AG Yannick Carlinet, France Telecom R&D Marc Dacier, Eurecom Hervé Debar, France Telecom R&D Constantinos Dovrolis, Georgia Tech Sonia Fahmy, Purdue University Olivier Festor, LORIA - INRIA Lorraine Dusan Gabrijelcic, Josef Stefan Institute Markus Hofmann, Lucent/Bell Labs, USA David Hutchison, Lancaster University Hartmut König, BTU Cottbus Simon Leinen, Switch Martin May, ETH Zürich Christos Papadopoulos, University of Southern California Olivier Paul, INT Jürgen Quittek, NEC Heidelberg Douglas Reeves, North Carolina State University Peter Reiher, UCLA Patricia Sagemeister, IBM Research Zurich James Sterbenz, University of Kansas and Lancaster University Yuval Shavitt, Tel Aviv University Morris Sloman, Imperial College London Henk Uijterwaal, RIPE Marcel Waldvogel, University of Konstanz Sherif Yusuf, Imperial College London ORGANISATION This workshop is sponsored and initiated by the IST Diadem Firewall project which has been focusing on denial of service attack detection and mitigation.
