First IEEE International Workshop on Security and Privacy for Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems
by Friderikos, Vasilis 24 Oct '14

24 Oct '14

Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. CALL FOR PAPERS The First IEEE International Workshop on Security and Privacy for Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems Organized in conjunction with IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC 2015) 8-12 June 2015, London, UK http://conta.uom.gr/IoTCPSsecurity2015/ SCOPE Recent advances in networking, communications, computation, software, and hardware technologies have revolutionized the way humans, smart things, and engineered systems interact and exchange information. The Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), which are the major contributors to this area, will fuel the realization of this new, globally interconnected cyber-world. Yet, the success, prosperity, and advancement of IoT and CPS systems strongly depend on the security, privacy and trust of the IoT and cyber-physical devices as well as the sensitive data being exchanged. While these technologies offer a lot of new possibilities, the increasing complexity of hardware and software as well as the worldwide access increase the vulnerability to security attacks. Successful attacks targeted to IoT devices and CPS systems have in common that not only a single computer is affected, but also interconnected technical systems allowing interaction with the physical world are influenced leading to malfunction of devices and control systems with severe financial, environmental and health losses. This fact highlights the need to develop novel tools that will constitute the heart of a much-needed science of security for IoT and CPS. The goal of the 2015 IoT/CPS-Security workshop is to bring together internationally leading academic and industrial researchers in an effort to identify and discuss the major technical challenges and recent results aimed at addressing all aspects of security and privacy for IoT and CPS. TOPICS OF INTEREST To ensure complete coverage of the advances in this field, the 2015 IoT/CPS-Security workshop solicits original contributions in, but not limited to, the following topical areas: Security, Privacy and Trust for IoT and CPS Systems Secure IoT and CPS architectures Security vulnerabilities in IoT and CPS systems Security in Machine-to-Machine (M2M) systems Detecting and preventing attacks in IoT devices and CPS systems Evaluation of the Threats, Attacks and Risks in IoT and cyber-physical devices Data Security and Privacy in the IoT Game theory for IoT and CPS security Security and Privacy in IoT applications and services (health care, smart cities, smart grid, safety and surveillance systems, etc.) Security and Privacy for RFID, sensors, actuator technologies Security in Smart Grids and Smart Spaces Network-distributed signal processing for security solutions in CPS Joint security and privacy aware protocol design Test-bed and performance metrics of security solutions in CPS Deployment and performance studies of secure CPS Secure network control systems for CPS applications Secure implementation of cyber-physical systems Architectures for secure hardware/software CPS systems SUBMISSION PROCEDURE The workshop accepts only novel, previously unpublished papers. Papers should be written in English with a standard length of six (6) printed pages (10-point font) including figures, without incurring additional page charges (maximum 1 additional page with extra charge if accepted). You may use the standard IEEE Transactions templates for Microsoft Word or LaTeX formats. For more information, please visit the following URL: http://icc2015.ieee-icc.org/content/authors-guidelines. The edas link for paper submission is: https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=18701&track=66317. IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission deadline: 10 January, 2014 Acceptance notification: 14 February, 2015 Final paper ("camera-ready"): 28 February, 2015 Workshop date: 8 June, 2015

------------------------------------------------------------------------ !!! All accepted (and presented) USRR 2014 Fall papers will be published !!! in Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics journal by Elsevier. http://www.journals.elsevier.com/electronic-notes-in-discrete-mathematics/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Call for Papers USRR 2014 Fall 2nd International Workshop on Understanding the inter-play between Sustainability, Resilience, and Robustness in networks co-located with RNDM 2014 http://www.rndm.pl/2014/USRR/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Paper submission web page: https://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=18741 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Workshop Fee: 120 EUR (it also covers the Gala Dinner of RNDM 2014) http://www.rndm.pl/2014/program.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- Context: ------------------ Emerging network sciences (interdisciplinary science of networks of networks) aim at discovering/identifying, formalizing/representing and analyzing common processes and phenomena underlying physical, chemical, biological, communication, social and cognitive networks. The fundamental objective of this emerging interdisciplinary field is to propose predictive models of these processes and phenomena in these networks that are characterized as adaptive, interdependent, unpredictable, nonlinear, and dynamic. From this perspective, a fundamental question arises as how interdependent network systems can be designed to support unpredictable disturbance and unexpected changes when vulnerable to natural disasters, (un)voluntary disruptions, malfunctions, and changes in its usage patterns due to socio-economic or technological changes. The latter changes could also impact operations for system maintenance as operators running an infrastructure might operate differently than system design assumes. For this purpose, a better understanding of the aforementioned properties characterizing interdependent networks requires to first capture the fundamental interplay between sustainability, resilience and robustness. Workshop Objective: ------------------ Technical networks exhibit many inter-dependencies which are complex to measure and model but also lead to multi-objective decision problems where uncertainty becomes the transversal notion to capture. To this end, understanding the fundamental interplay between sustainability, resilience, and robustness becomes essential in order to rejuvenate and/or improve current design and evaluation methods that are currently unable to cope with this fundamental dimension. Topics: ------------------ Authors are invited to submit papers that describe state-of-the-art research, present work-in-progress, or suggest open problems covering one or more of the topics of interest to the workshop: - Case studies about natural disasters, (un)voluntary disruptions, malfunctions, failures, etc. in (inter-dependent) network infrastructure: what happened and what lead to the situation? - Life cycle (data) analysis for inter-dependent networks: life stat. distributions, parametric and non-parametric methods, life data classification, competing failure modes analysis - Quantifying and evaluating the sustainability of (inter-dependent) networks - Robust optimization of large-scale (inter-dependent) networks - Robust decision methods for resilient (inter-dependent) networks - Robust, adaptive and stochastic optimal control for sustainable network systems design - Extend robustness analysis towards a rigorous approach to resiliency analysis by e.g. capturing and representing system dynamics at multiple time scale, multi-scale models and cross-interactions - Energy-aware resilience - Game theoretic and economic aspects of sustainability-vs-resilience trade-offs - Predictive simulation and uncertainty quantification --------------------------------------------------------------------- Important dates: - Paper submission deadline: October 24, 2014 - Notification deadline: November 4, 2014 - Camera-ready: November 10, 2014 --------------------------------------------------------------------- We invite submissions (via EDAS: https://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=18741) of original contributions of 4-8 pages, formatted in LaTeX according to the ENDM template available at: http://www.elsevier.com/inca/publications/misc/endm_package.zip Workshop Chairs: ----------------- - Dimitri Papadimitriou, Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs, BE - Bart Lannoo, iMinds, University of Ghent, BE - Heiko Niedermayer, TU Munich, DE
