CALL FOR PAPERS ESORICS 2007 12TH EUROPEAN SYMPOSIUM ON RESEARCH IN COMPUTER SECURITY Dresden, Germany - September 24-26, 2007
http://esorics2007.inf.tu-dresden.de/
********************************************************************* SUBMISSION OF PAPERS: MARCH 30, 2007 *********************************************************************
Papers offering novel research contributions on any aspect of computer security are solicited for submission to the Twelfth European Symposium on Research in Computer Security (ESORICS 2007). Organized in a series of European countries, ESORICS is confirmed as the European research event in computer security. The symposium started in 1990 and has been held on alternate years in different European countries and attracts an international audience from both the academic and industrial communities.
From 2002 it has been held yearly. ESORICS has established itself as one
of the premiere international gatherings on information assurance.
Papers may present theory, mechanisms, applications, or practical experience on all traditional or emerging topics relevant for security in computing systems. For example, the submissions might treat any innovative aspects of one or several topics listed in the following:
- security architecture and secure components (trusted computing modules, smartcards, personal computing devices, networks, information systems, applications, peer-to-peer connections, language-based security, ... )
- access control (authorization, privileges, delegation, revocation, credentials, authentication, accountability, safety analysis, ... )
- information control (data flows, information flows, inferences, covert channel analysis, ... )
- applied cryptography (protocol design, protocol verification, authentication protocols, identity management, key distribution, ... )
- tolerance and survivability (attack models, vulnerability analysis, intrusion detection, malware collection and analysis, ... )
- security management (requirements engineering, policy specification, trust evaluation, policy enforcement, ... )
- secure electronic commerce, administration, and government (digital rights management, intellectual property protection, privacy-enhancing technologies, e-voting, ... )
- formal methods in security (security models, security verification, ... )
The primary focus is on high-quality original unpublished research, case studies and implementation experiences. We encourage submissions of papers discussing industrial research and development. Proceedings will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.
The symposium will be accompanied by a series of workshops. A call for workshop proposals will be published on the conference website.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR PAPER SUBMISSIONS Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Papers should be at most 15 pages excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices (using 11-point font), and at most 20 pages total. Committee members are not required to read the appendices, and so the paper should be intelligible without them. Authors are encouraged to follow the Information for LNCS Authors provided by Springer (www.springer.com/lncs) already when preparing their submission.
The procedure for submitting papers will be announced at the conference website.
Submissions must be received by March 30, 2007 in order to be considered. Notification of acceptance or rejection will be sent to authors not later than June 1, 2007. Authors of accepted papers must be prepared to sign a copyright statement and must guarantee that their paper will be presented at the conference. Authors of accepted papers must follow the guidelines in the Information for LNCS Authors for the preparation of the manuscript and use the templates provided there. Papers included in the conference proceedings must be typeset in LaTeX.
