30 Mar '17

Dear All, [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] Call for papers: IEEE International Symposium on Security, Privacy and Trust in Internet of Things (SPTIoT 2017), 1-4 August 2017, Sydney, Australia In conjunction with IEEE TrustCom-17<http://stprp-activity.com/TrustCom2017> Website: https://sites.google.com/site/ieeesptiot2017/ Important dates: Deadline for Paper Submission: April 15, 2017 Notification of Acceptance: May 15, 2017 Camera Ready Copies: May 31, 2017 Submissions: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sptiot2017 Publications: All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society (EI indexed). Distinguished papers presented at the symposium, after further revision, will be recommended to special issues of reputable SCI/EI-indexed journals. ------------ Introduction: The Internet of Things (IoTs) is a novel design paradigm, envisioned as a network of billions or trillions of machines communicating with one another and rapidly gaining global attention from academia, industry, and government. IoT has the potential to offer innovative solutions to real real-world problems such as ageing populations, climate change, healthcare, transport, and battlefield monitoring etc. The heterogeneous nature of the IoT as well as the computational constraints of many of the building blocks of the IoT make security, privacy and trust a challenging problem to solve on the one hand, while security, privacy and trust play a critical role for most if not all applications of IoT in domains such as surveillance, healthcare, security, transport, food safety, manufacturing, logistics and supply chain management. Without effective solutions for security, privacy and trust reliable data fusion and mining, qualified services with context-aware intelligence and enhanced user acceptance and experience cannot be achieved. This symposium aims at providing such forum for researchers, practitioners and and developers from different background areas such as IoT, big data, networking, wireless communication, information security and privacy protection areas to exchange the latest experience, research ideas and synergic research and development on fundamental issues and applications about security, privacy and trust issues in IoT environments. The symposium solicits high quality research results in all related areas. Scope and Topics: The objective of this symposium is to invite authors to submit original manuscripts that demonstrate and explore current advances in all aspects of security, privacy and trust in IoT systems. The symposium solicits novel papers on a broad range of topics, including but not limited to: · Security, privacy and trust in Integration of IoT devices and their data · Security, privacy and trust in IoT cloud services and resources · Secure IoT data query, analysis, and visualization · Security, privacy and trust in real-time IoT data analysis · IoT device actuation and feedback · Secure Mobile sensing and data analysis · Security, privacy and trust in analysis of social media posting and crowdsourcing · Security, privacy and trust in fusion of sensor data with the social media postings · Security, privacy and trust in Edge/fog computing services for IoT · Security, privacy and trust in IoT Big data · Cyber-attacks detection and prevention · Cyber security based on post-quantum cryptography · Cyber defense strategies and responsibilities in IoT system · Cyber threats and threat intelligence · Efficient/Secure implementation of cryptographic algorithms in IOT · Physical Unclonable Functions for IoT Security · Cryptanalysis and attacks on cryptosystems · authentication and access control in IoT · IoT networking and communication security · Privacy and anonymization techniques in IoT Submission Guidelines: Submit your papers in PDF file at the PriSec2014 submission site: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sptiot2017. Papers should be limited up to 6 pages in IEEE format (authors are allowed to purchase up to 2 extra pages.). Templates can be downloaded here for Word<http://kpnm.hnust.cn/confs/cgc2012/IEEECS_CPS_8.5x11x2.zip> or LATEX<http://kpnm.hnust.cn/confs/cgc2012/IEEECS_CPS_LaTeX_Letter_2Col.zip>. All papers will be peer reviewed by two or three PC members. Submitting a paper to the workshop means that if the paper is accepted, at least one author should register to IEEE TrustCom-17<http://stprp-activity.com/TrustCom2017> and attend the conference to present the paper. Publications: Accepted and presented papers will be included into the IEEE Conference Proceedings published by IEEE CS CPS and submitted to IEEE Xplore. Authors of accepted papers, or at least one of them, are requested to register and present their work at the conference, otherwise their papers will be removed from the digital libraries of IEEE CS after the conference.

ICA3PP is now recognized as the main regular event of the world that is covering the many dimensions of parallel algorithms and architectures, encompassing fundamental theoretical approaches, practical experimental projects, and commercial components and systems. As applications of computing systems have permeated in every aspects of daily life, the power of computing system has become increasingly critical. This conference provides a forum for academics and practitioners from countries around the world to exchange ideas for improving the efficiency, performance, reliability, security and interoperability of computing systems and applications. Following the traditions of the previous successful ICA3PP conferences held in Hangzhou, Brisbane, Singapore, Melbourne, Hong Kong, Beijing, Cyprus, Taipei, Busan, Melbourne, Fukuoka, Vietri sul Mare, Dalian,Japan, Zhangjiajie, and Granada, ICA3PP 2017 will be held in Helsinki, Finland. The objective of ICA3PP 2017 is to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry and governments to advance the theories and technologies in parallel and distributed computing. ICA3PP 2017 will focus on two broad areas of parallel and distributed computing, i.e., architectures, algorithms and networks, and systems and applications. The conference of ICA3PP 2017 is co-organized by Aalto University, Finland and Xidian University, China. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: Scope and Interests Track 1: Parallel and Distributed Architectures Track 2: Software Systems and Programming Models Track 3: Distributed and Network-based Computing Track 4: Big Data and its Applications Track 5: Parallel and Distributed Algorithms Track 6: Applications of Parallel and Distributed Computing Track 7: Service Dependability and Security in Distributed and Parallel Systems Track 8: Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical-Social Computing Track 9: Performance Modeling and Evaluation Submission Guidelines Submitted papers must not substantially overlap with papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Papers must be clearly presented in English, must not exceed 14 pages, including tables, figures, references and appendixes, in Springer LNCS Format with Portable Document Format (.pdf). Please submit your paper via https://research.comnet.aalto.fi/ICA3PP2017/submit.html Papers will be selected based on their originality, timeliness, significance, relevance, and clarity of presentation. Submission of a paper should be regarded as a commitment that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register and attend the conference to present the work. The conference proceeding will be published by Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS, EI indexed). Excellent Papers will be recommended to high-quality journal special issues as below (SCI/SCIE indexed).
