CALL FOR PAPERS
The 1st Workshop on Recent Advances on Intrusion-Tolerant Systems WRAITS 2007 in conjunction with EuroSys 2007
Lisbon, Portugal March 23, 2007
------------------------------------------------------------------------
OVERVIEW
The First Workshop on Recent Advances on Intrusion-Tolerant Systems aims to bring together researchers in the related areas of Intrusion Tolerance, Distributed Trust, Survivability, Byzantine Fault Tolerance, and Resilience. These areas have the purpose of enhancing the Dependability and Security of computer systems by tolerating both malicious faults (attacks, intrusions) and accidental faults. The workshop will be specially interested in “intrusion-tolerant systems”: how to build them? How to evaluate and test their dependability and security? What systems need to be intrusion-tolerant? The workshop will provide a forum for researchers in these areas to present recent results, discuss open problems that still need research, the steps that need to be taken for intrusion-tolerant systems to be deployed in practice, and the target application domains for intrusion tolerance.
Authors are invited to submit position papers to the workshop, that will be held in conjunction with the European Conference on Computer Systems (EuroSys 2007), March 21-23, 2007. Position papers can present ongoing work and novel/speculative results, but experimental results or other forms of validation are encouraged.
TOPICS
Topics of interest related to intrusion tolerance include, but are not limited to:
* innovative system architectures * wide-area intrusion-tolerant systems * secure control and embedded systems * security of critical infrastructures * practical applications for intrusion tolerance * state machine replication * Byzantine quorum systems * proactive recovery * Byzantine fault-tolerant algorithms * diversity and failure independence * determinism and interoperability issues * confidentiality and replication * dependability and security evaluation * performance evaluation * risk assessment * distributed trust * survivable systems * cross-organization systems
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
Position papers must be no longer than 5 pages including figures, tables and references, and must conform the standard ACM conference format (see http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html). The paper should begin with a title, author names and affiliations, and an abstract. Papers must be in PDF or Postscript format and be submitted online (see http://wraits07.di.fc.ul.pt/). More information about the workshop can be obtained by email to the same address.
At least one author of an accepted paper must register at the conference and present the paper at the workshop.
