Special Session "Security in Networked and Distributed Systems (SNDS 2011)"

http://www.comsec.spb.ru/snds11/

Special Session on "Security in Networked and Distributed Systems" aims to bring together researchers and practitioners involved in multiple disciplines concerning security in distributed systems to exchange ideas and to learn the latest developments in this important field. We will focus on issues related to network and distributed system security, such as authentication, access control, confidentiality, integrity, availability, privacy, dependability and sustainability of distributed systems.

Previously unpublished papers offering novel research contributions to the theoretical and practical aspects of security in distributed systems are solicited for submission.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Adaptive security
• Applied cryptography
• Authentication, authorization and access control
• Computer and network forensics
• Data mining, machine learning, and bio-inspired approaches for security
• Deception systems and honeypots
• Denial-of-service attacks and countermeasures
• Digital rights management
• Embedded System Security
• Internet and web security
• Intrusion detection and prevention
• Malware
• Reputation based security
• Risk analysis and risk management
• Security and privacy in pervasive and ubiquitous computing
• Security evaluation
• Security for grid computing
• Security of embedded devices
• Security of emerging technologies (sensor, wireless, peer-to-peer networks)
• Security modeling and simulation
• Security policies
• Security protocols
• Software security
• Survivability
• Tamper resistance
• Trust management
• Trusted computing

Submission guidelines

Paper Submission for Workshops/Special Sessions

Authors should submit a full paper not exceeding 5000 words in length and including a 150-200 word abstract. To facilitate an anonymous reviewing process, the first page of the paper should contain only the title and abstract. Proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society.

Authors of accepted papers are expected to register and present their papers at the Conference.

Papers submitted for the special sessions must be submitted through the conference submission system (http://www.pdp2011.org/index.php?p=sub) with an indication of the name of the special session. Papers must adhere to the formatting rules of the conference and will undergo the same review process as other papers submitted to the conference.

Authors of accepted papers are expected to register and present the paper at the special session. Papers must also be addressed to the session chair:
