******************************************************* WISTP2007 Background and Goals: With the rapid technological development of information technologies, computer systems and especially embedded systems are becoming more mobile and ubiquitous, increasingly interfacing with the physical world. Ensuring the security of these complex and yet, resource constraint systems has emerged as one of the most pressing challenges. The aim of this first workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners in related areas and to encourage interchange and cooperation between the research community and the industrial/consumer community. The workshop will consist of technical paper presentations, one special session for student papers and five invited talks. To contribute to the structuring of the community, a networking meeting to discuss EU FP7 projects proposals will take place just after the workshop.
******************************************************* Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
A. Smart Cards and Trusted Devices Security
* Biometrics, National ID cards * Embedded Systems Security and TPMs * Interplay of TPMs and Smart Cards * New Applications for Secure RFID Systems * RFID Systems Security * Smart Card Security * Smart Card Applications

******************************************************* Submission Details: Authors are invited to submit original papers (written in english) not previously published nor submitted in parallel for publication to any other conference, workshop or journal. All submissions will be subjected to thorough blind review by at least three reviewers (if the paper involved a Program Committee member, the paper will be reviewed at least by five reviewers). All submitted papers should be anonymous with no author(s) names, affiliations, acknowledgments, nor obvious references. Each paper should begin with a title, a short abstract, and a list of keywords, following the template indicated by Springer at: http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html The papers will be in .pdf format, at most 10 pages long excluding bibliography and well-marked appendices, and at most 14 pages long in total, using at least 11-point fonts with reasonable margins. As the reader should not be required to read any appendices, the paper should be intelligible even without them. 20 papers will be accepted for presentation at the workshop (they will be included in the proceedings) and 12 additional papers will be selected to be presented as A1 poster at the workshop (they will NOT be included in the proceedings). At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register with the Conference and present the paper. For authors presenting multiple papers, one normal registration is valid for up to two papers. For electronic paper submission please use the following URL: https://wistp2007.xlim.fr/wistp2007/iChair/
******************************************************* Awards: * Best student paper: 400€ + a CD-Rom version of the Handbook of Information Security * Best workshop paper: 400€ + a CD-Rom version of the Handbook of Information Security * Best innovative technology: Gift + a CD-Rom version of the Handbook of Information Security
Authors of the best works in the Smart Card domain selected by the PC co-chairs of the international conference Cardis'2008 (François-Xavier Standaert, Gilles Grimaud) will be encouraged to submit extended and significantly revised versions at Cardis'2008.
Some accepted papers written by French-speaking authors will be published in a journal of the SEE (in a french version).

******************************************************* Opportunities for students: To help the students looking for a PhD thesis or a postdoctoral position, we will propose them to add a colorized sticker on their badge. In the same way, we will propose to persons offering these positions to add a sticker with a different color. We hope this mechanism will help to support the exchanges between young and senior researchers.
