Grid and Pervasive Computing Security (GPCS'07)

in conjunction with

2007 International Conference on Multimedia and Ubiquitous Engineering

April 26th ~ 28th, 2007
Korean Bible University, Seoul, Korea



Call for Papers

  Grid and Pervasive Computing (GPC) are emerging technologies that enable access to a pervasive flow of information, data and services anytime and anywhere. As the security is of paramount importance to the design and deployment of GPC, the benefits of GPC will only be fully realized if security aspects can be appropriately addressed. The goal of this symposium is to take the grid and pervasive security significantly forward through analyses of new security and privacy issues arising from the novel architecture of Grid and pervasive systems and to propose solutions to safely deploy services and appliances. To this end, we solicit original high quality submissions on topics in security in computational/data grids and pervasive computing. ¡¡

Topics of Conference

  The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

 -  Novel and emerging secure architectures
 -  Self-protecting and healing systems
 -  Analyses of new security and privacy issues
 -  Study of attack strategies, attack modeling
 -  Security in sensor networks
 -  Trust Models and Management
 -  Implementations and performance analysis
 -  Privacy-preserving techniques
 -  Key management
 -  Malicious code prevention
 -  Denial-of-service attacks and countermeasures
 -  Intrusion and anomaly detection and prevention
 -  Network infrastructure security
 -  Wireless and pervasive/ubiquitous computing security
 -  Data protection technologies
