Special Issue on Security and Privacy in Innovative Communication and Services

Introduction Now, various multimedia services are enriching human's daily life, such as multimedia message services, color rings, mobile TV, IPTV, User Generated Content (UGC), p2p sharing, etc. With the rapid development of communication technology, it becomes a reality to hear or watch anything, anywhere. For example, the convergence between Internet, digital TV and telecommunication (e.g., telephone, telegram, or mobile communication) pushes the development of TV services, such as interactive TV, IPTV, mobile TV, etc. The cloud computing techniques make it more and more attractive for remote users to work on one task

together, e.g., collaborative drawing or writing. The machine-to-machine communication enriches users' experiences by fastening the wearable computing or

ambient intelligence. Social networks (for linking friends or sharing multimedia

contents) over Internet or mobile networks are attracting more and more users. This special issue focuses on the security and privacy issues arising in innovative communication or service systems, and aims to collect best papers contributed by leading experts, expose the readership to the latest research results on the countermeasures. It will include a number of related topics, demonstrate pioneer work in this field, investigate the novel solutions and discuss the future trends in this field.

Topics Submitted papers may focus on theoretical model, architecture construction, algorithm design or hardware implementation. Both review papers and technical papers are expected. The topics include but are not limited to Security and privacy in network convergence Security and privacy in machine-to-machine communication Security and privacy in collaborative computing Security and privacy in cloud computing Security and privacy in grid computing Security and privacy in peer-to-peer computing Security and privacy in wearable computing Security and privacy in ambient intelligence Security and privacy in ubiquitous communication Security and privacy in mobile sensor networks Security and privacy in mobile ad hoc networks Security and privacy in information sharing social networks Security and privacy in interactive multimedia services Security and privacy in other innovative communication and services
