******************************* CALL FOR PAPER ******************************* Submission Date: August 26, 2011 ___________________________________________________________________________________ The Second International Workshop on Ubiquitous Computing Security Issues (UCSI'11) http://www.comp.dit.ie/ucsi-2011/
In conjunction with the 6th International Conference for Internet Technology and Secured Transactions (ICITST-2011) December 11-14, 2011, Abu Dhabi, UAE Hosted by Khalifa University http://www.icitst.org/
Workshop Summary ================ In the last few years we have witnessed a significant increase in the use of computers and mobile devices in Ubiquitous Computing Systems. While this is a welcome trend, security concerns are becoming one of the major problems. It is affecting the adoption rate and usage of these systems. Unless deliberate efforts are taken to secure these systems from design to implementation most of the development achieved to date may not be realised and rolled out to the real world.
The Ubiquitous Computing Security Issues (UCSI) workshop will bring together researchers and industry participants who are involved with the design, development, and implementation of novel applications and frameworks in the domain of Ubiquitous Computing. The UCSI workshop will provide a high profile, leading edge forum for researchers and engineers alike to present state-of-the-art research in the field of security for Ubiquitous Computing.
The UCSI workshop invites original, high-quality research contributions. In particular contributions that identify the state-of-the-art in the design, development, deployment, evaluation and understanding of security issues for Ubiquitous Computing systems.
Topics of Interest ==================
Security Challenges in Ubiquitous Computing Systems Issues and Challenges of Ubiquitous Computing in e-Healthcare Security and Privacy Concerns in Ubiquitous Computing Systems Security Concerns in Positioning and Tracking Technologies Privacy Concerns in Context-Aware Systems and Smart Environments Techniques and Challenges for Implementing Secure Smart Environments Legal and Ethical Issues relating to Ubiquitous Computing Systems Security of FLOSS Measuring software reliability issues Mobile, Ad Hoc and Sensor Network Security Network Security Issues, Protocols, Data Security in Ubi-com Secure communications Secured Database Systems Security in Data Mining Security and Access Control Security of Web-based applications and services Service, Security and its Data management for U-commerce
