Brief Description of Special Session

Today Information Security(IS) has profound implications in every aspect of our lives. With the emergence of the information security across the world, IS is converging with almost all companies which greatly influence the way companies perform their business as well as the way ordinary people interact with each other. This finally affects the fundamental nature of societies, organization and ultimately affects the natural infrastructures and environment. In such scenario, IS researchers and cryptographers have to focus on designing collaborative services with IT area and enviro-friendly products. Recently many researches have been done in the area of green IT providing many integrated and environment-friendly solutions like thin clients and extend useful life of the hardware. Information security is one area which consumes high computational resources ultimately putting stress on the environment. But this area is highly overlooked requiring more research.
The main goal of this special session is to bring concept of green IT and convergence into the security technology research area. This session will bring ideas, problems and solutions relating green IT and convergence with information security technology

Topics of interest but are not limited to the following:

1. Security for bio chips and bio-recognition information
2. Security for RFID and Convergent Components
3. Convergence in Security Technology Design and Evaluations
4. Security issues on U-Home and U-City Technology
5. Security issues on U-Traffic/Transportation Technology
6. Security issues on U-Learning Technology
7. Security Issues on Hybrid Technology
8. Information Security, Energy and Environment
9. Hybrid and Convergent Approaches on Information Security
10. Security Issues on Green IT
11. Public Key Infrastructures, Key Management, Credentials on Convergent Network
12. Secure Routing, Naming/Addressing, Network Management on Convergent Network
13. Security & Privacy in Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing
14. Security & Privacy for emerging technologies, VoIP, peer-to-peer and overlay network systems, Web 2.0
15. Security issues on Convergent Aspects of Ubiquitous Tech
