F2GC-08 CALL FOR PAPERS

The 2nd International Workshop on
Forensics for Future Generation Communication environments (F2GC-08)

December 13 ~ 15, 2008, Hainan Island, China

http://www.sersc.org/F2GC2008/

In Conjunction with FGCN 2008
 (http://www.sersc.org/FGCN2008)

Future Generation Communication environments (FGC) are advanced communication and networking environments where all applications and services are focused on users. In addition, the FGC has emerged rapidly an exciting new paradigm to provide reliable and comfortable life services.
Furthermore, the benefits of FGC will only be realized if security issues can be appropriately addressed. Specially, forensics for FGC is very important in the security fields.


This workshop is intended to foster state-of-the-art research forensics in the area of FGC including information and communication technologies, law, social sciences and business administration.


The F2GC-08 will provide an opportunity for academic and industry professionals to discuss the latest issues and progress in the area of forensics. And the workshop will publish high quality papers which are closely related to the various theories and practical applications in F2GC. Furthermore, we expect that the workshop and its publications will be a trigger for further related research and technology improvements in this important subject.
