Hi all!
Here is the Call for Paper for the security session of CTS 2005:
SPECIAL SESSION
Security and Collaboration
The 2005 International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems
(CTS'2005)
May 15 - 19, 2005
Adam's Mark Hotels & Resorts, Saint Louis, Missouri, USA
In Cooperation with the IEEE Systems, Man and Cybernetics Society
Paper Submission Deadline: January 15, 2005
Brief Description:
Collaboration relies on distributed systems that provide the required
security properties. Virtual organizations often use the Internet to
support collaboration. The Internet, operating systems and distributed
environments currently suffer from poor security support and cannot resist
common attacks (spamming, worms, session hijacking, buffer overflow, denial
of service, social engineering, etc.).
Collaborative organizations require better security properties (strong
authentication, efficient encryption, Mandatory Access Control, insurance of
confidentiality, integrity, non-repudiation and availability). Nowadays,
collaborative organizations use new technologies such as mobile devices,
wireless networks and grid computing. These environments introduce newer
needs and difficulties related to security. Hence, collaborative
organizations and technologies face several challenges in the field of
security.
This special session on Security and Collaboration - to be held as part of
the 2005 International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems
(CTS'05) - will focus on security issues related to distributed systems with
emphasis on collaborative environments, grid or clustering systems for
cooperation, mobile and wireless cooperation. The aim is to have a
dedicated session that fosters closer interactions among researchers and
users communities, providing an excellent opportunity for them to meet and
discuss their ideas.
We invite original contributions from researchers in academia, research
institutions and computer industry on these emerging and important areas of
information technology.
Topics of Interest include (but are not limited to):
* Frameworks for Security in Collaborative Systems
* Access Control in Collaborative Environments
* Trusted Operating Systems for Distributed Environments
* Security of Grid and Cluster Architectures
* Honeypots
* Intrusion Detection
* Role Based, Reputation, and Trust
* Encryption and Cryptography
* Security in Mobile and Wireless Work
* Agent Based Security Solutions
* Disclosure and Integrity Issues
* Resistance to Denial of Service
* Detection and Self-Recovery Schemes and Strategies
