The ICN principle of accessing authenticated named data in the network enables several optimizations, such as network-layer data caching, flexible multipath communication and simplified mobility management. ICN thus addresses many important requirements of applications such as high-performance, scalable media data distribution and reliable, distributed Internet of Things networks. ICN is an active research area that includes specific topics such as network architectures, applications, transport, and caching techniques. Security is a particularly important topic since ICN enables new approaches with respect to confidentiality, access control and trust management that we want to address by this Feature Topic. Solicited topics include (but are not limited to): · Security architectures for information-centric networking (ICN) · Authentication and authorization for distributed caching environment · Access control mechanisms for ICN · Security in mobile ICN · Cryptographic protocols against internal attacks in information-centric network · Information sharing and data protection in ICN · Secure monitoring in ICN · Denial of service attacks prevention in ICN · Privacy protection in ICN · Privacy policy framework for ICN · Privacy in caching, naming, signature · Mechanisms to enforce privacy and trust · Privacy-preserving processing in ICN · Privacy-preserving data publishing on ICN · User privacy, data providers privacy and ICN application platform privacy · Privacy and security in ICN applications · Trusted computing platform · Trust models for ICN · Trust management for ICN · Copyright management and business models for ICN - SUBMISSIONS ---------------------------------------- Articles should be tutorial in nature, with the intended audience being all members of the communications technology community. They should be written in a tutorial style comprehensible to readers outside the specialty of the article. Mathematical equations should not be used (in justified cases up to three simple equations are allowed). Articles should not exceed 4500 words (from introduction through conclusions, excluding figures, tables and captions). Figures and tables should be limited to a combined total of six. The number of archival references is recommended not to exceed 15. In some rare cases, more mathematical equations, figures, and tables may be allowed, if well-justified. In general, however, mathematics should be avoided; instead, references to papers containing the relevant mathematics should be provided.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks Journal (IF=3.04) -- Special Issue on Recent advances on Security and Privacy in Intelligent Transportation Systems Datum: Mon, 23 Oct 2017 11:23:03 -0400 Von: Mubashir Husain Rehmani <mshrehmani(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Mubashir Husain Rehmani <mshrehmani(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear All, Please find below a call for papers for Special Issue in Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks Journal . Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. Link: https://www.journals.elsevier.com/ad-hoc-networks/call-for-papers/special-i… Scope and Motivation: ---------------------- The rapid evolution of communications technologies together with the variety and potential availability of network access mediums and service providers have led to the emergence of the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs). There is a large variety of ITS networks spanning from mobile ground networks, e.g. Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) to aerial ground networks, e.g. Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) networks. VANET is a kind of ITS networks where a vehicle is a connected car equipped with various communications technologies such as: Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) and cellular networks (3G/4G). The purpose of VANET is to ensure a wide area coverage for all vehicles in scaling the network, thus achieving the always best connected paradigm where the best connectivity is offered to clients wherever they are and at any time. UAV is another kind of aerial ITS networks, which are used in military applications for target monitoring and engaging air to ground combats. It is also used in civil applications to explore inaccessible areas and deliver data to and from areas with no network infrastructure. There are many unprecedented challenges to realize ITS network; security and privacy is one of them since, on one hand, vehicles exchange sensitive data (e.g., accidents notification, coordinates of nuclear sites, etc.) and on the other hand they form a specific network with particular characteristics (frequent fragmentation and dynamic topology). This special issue covers studies and solutions that ensure ITS security and privacy. We encourage authors from the industry and academe to submit their original research works that will enhance our understanding and modeling of security, privacy, and attacks. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: Intrusion detection and response systems in ITS network. Intrusion prediction model in in ITS network Data Mining and Machine learning for IDS Cyber-attacks against ITS network Security metrics Secure localization in ITS network Lightweight cryptography technique Cyber-attacks modeling in ITS network Secure routing protocol Key management schemes in ITS network Privacy challenges in ITS Important Dates : ------------------ Manuscript Due: March 01, 2018 Acceptance notification: July 01, 2018 Revised paper due: Septembre 01, 2018 Final manuscript due: December 01, 2018 Expected Publication of the Special Issue: March 01, 2019 Submission Guidelines: ---------------------- All submissions have to be prepared according to the Guide for Authors as published in the Journal website at http://www.journals.elsevier.com/ad-hoc-networks/. Authors should select “SI: SP&ITS2017”, from the “Choose Article Type” pull-down menu during the submission process. All contributions must not have been previously published or be under consideration for publication elsewhere. A submission based on one or more papers that appeared elsewhere has to comprise major value-added extensions over what appeared previously (at least 30% new material). Authors are requested to attach to the submitted paper their relevant, previously published articles and a summary document explaining the enhancements made in the journal version.

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Elias Tragos <etragos(a)ICS.FORTH.GR> Gesendet: 18. Oktober 2017 09:38:22 MESZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: RED-IoT 2018 workshop in conjunction with EWSN 2018 (final deadline) [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] Call for Papers – RED-IoT 2018 “2nd Workshop on Recent advances in secure management of data and resources in the IoT” In-conjunction with EWSN 2018 Proceedings appear in ACM Digital Library February 14-16, 2018 in Madrid, Spain https://ewsn2018.networks.imdea.org/red-iot.html Keynote speech: Dr. Shahid Raza, director of the security lab at SICS, Sweden. Recent advances in the area of Internet-Connected Objects have revolutionized the everyday lives of people and the industrial world. The Internet of Things (IoT) has infused immense doses of "intelligence" in the physical world making the transition towards digitising everything. Nowadays, most devices around us are either connected to the IoT or are about to be. Physical objects are becoming intelligent through connected devices that are either attached to them or monitoring/controlling them. At a larger scale, cities are becoming smarter, embracing a plethora of technologies to enhance and improve the quality of everyday living. The evolution of traditional wireless sensor networks towards the IoT has introduced numerous opportunities for advanced and promising applications for citizens and industries. Many companies have recently launched "smart products" into the market, in every domain: home, automotive, agriculture, water, air, environment, etc. Most of these products are quite innovative and can be useful for improving and simplifying the lives of citizens, assisting them to their daily activities or contributing also to improving the municipal services and improving the quality of the environment we live. However, most of these products fail to address even simple challenges for security and privacy: they do not protect the data they gather and transmit, they do not use encrypted connections, they use simplistic credentials, etc. The IoT, though, raises significant challenges regarding security, and privacy. Having large numbers of connected devices deployed everywhere around us, e.g. in homes, offices, buses, on the street, monitoring the everyday activities of citizens raises issues regarding user privacy. Privacy issues exist not only when users are actively involved in IoT applications e.g. when sending data from their mobile phones, but also when they are subjects of monitoring by other devices, e.g. when they are being monitored by cameras on the streets. Devices that offer actuation capabilities, e.g. traffic lights, doors, windows, alarms and vehicles allow cyber-attacks to extend effects to the real world. Current centralized IoT solutions raise also security and privacy issues due to the single central point of gathering all data and mechanisms. To address this, lately, there is a shift of interest towards distributed or decentralized security solutions. This workshop builds on the success of the first RED-IoT workshop collocated with the IEEE CAMAD 2014 conference in Athens, Greece, December 2014. It aims to bring together experts from academia and industry that are working in cross-layer issues in the areas of security, and privacy in the IoT. The goal is to present recent results of the research community, the industry and standardisation bodies and exchange ideas for joint research activities in the future. The workshop welcomes original submissions in the following topic areas: • Security and privacy by design architectures for IoT • Decentralized and distributed security architectures • Blockchain in the IoT • GDPR in the IoT • Intelligent, secure data processing, mining, fusion, storage, and management, context awareness, ambient intelligence • Secure wireless channel and traffic models • Physical layer security in the IoT • Secure spectrum management solutions for wireless IoT communications • Security of sensors and actuators • Security and privacy in IoT applications • Embedded security and privacy in IoT devices • Forensics for IoT • Privacy and anonymization techniques in IoT • Trust management IoT architectures • Lightweight security solutions • On-device authentication, authorization and access control in IoT • Big data security for IoT • Detection and prevention of IoT-based security attacks • Ethics and legal considerations in IoT. Submission Instructions and Formatting Requirements The papers will be published as part of the conference proceedings and will appear in the ACM Digital Library. We encourage submissions from academia and industry alike. Full papers can have a maximum length of 6 pages (two column format). The workshop also accepts short position papers of a maximum length of two pages in the same format. Pages must have 8.5" x 11" (letter) two-column format, using 10-point type on 11-point leading, with a maximum text block of 7" wide x 9" deep with an intercolumn spacing of .25".

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Tei-Wei Kuo <pubs(a)acm.org> Gesendet: 18. Oktober 2017 15:30:00 MESZ An: wolf(a)IBR.CS.TU-BS.DE Betreff: ACM TCPS Call for Papers: Special Issue on Transportation Cyber-Physical Systems ACM Transactions on Cyber-Physical Systems (TCPS) Special Issue on Transportation Cyber-Physical Systems Guest Editors * Samarjit Chakraborty, TU Munich, Germany * Tian He, University of Minnesota, USA ---------------------------------------------------------- - Introduction - Mobility is one of the biggest societal challenges of the future that is to be addressed in all cities around the word. There is an ever-growing population, increasing concentration of people in cities, environmental concerns, and the growing aspirations of people towards vehicle ownership, especially in developing countries. All of these throw up myriad challenges to improve transportation systems - in order to make them more efficient, increase their safety and comfort level, and reduce their negative impacts on the environment. At the same time, a variety of recent developments in the domains of engineering and information and communication technologies (ICT) have opened up possibilities that are poised to disrupt transportation systems in the near future. These include autonomous vehicles, electromobility, intelligent traffic lights and autonomous intersection management, the possibilities of ride sharing and aggregation services (such as those provided by Uber), and new toll pricing policies, parking management systems and public transport management systems using dynamic policies. In addition, the emergence of data science and analytics will also provide new tools using which transportation systems and services will be managed in the future. The confluence of this multitude of technologies and tools from different domains and the impact they will have in future transportation systems will be the theme of this special issue on Transportation Cyber-Physical Systems. The aim of this special issue will be to feature articles on new technologies that will impact future transportation systems. They might span across vehicular technologies - such as autonomous vehicles, vehicle platooning and electric cars, communication technologies to enable vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication, security mechanisms, infrastructure-level technologies to support transportation, as well as management systems and policies such as traffic light control, intersection management, dynamic toll pricing and parking management. In addition to terrestrial transportation, traffic control and autonomous management of aerial vehicles and maritime ships are also of interest. An important goal of this special issue is also to bring together perspectives from multiple research communities such as Computer Science, Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Electrical Engineering - all of whom are going to play an important role in shaping future transportation systems. - Scope and additional information - * Data-driven modeling, analysis and management of large-scale transportation CPS * Infrastructure-based terrestrial and air traffic monitoring, control and management * Human, autonomous system and infrastructure interaction and human-in-the-loop control * Close loop sensing, control, actuation of networked automated terrestrial and aerial vehicles * Networking support for real-time highly-reliable V2X and airspace networking * Emerging transportation modes with shared mobility and participatory delivery * Technologies for autonomous vehicles, testing, verification and case studies * Toll pricing, intelligent traffic lights, parking management * Technologies for shared mobility and service aggregation, especially in dynamic environments * Management and control of Electric vehicles and infrastructure * Emerging automotive embedded systems technologies * Case studies, testbeds, prototypes, and practical systems for Transportation CPS * Safety, dependability, Security, privacy issues for Transportation CPS * Analysis of heterogeneity, resiliency and sustainability issues for Transportation CPS * Testing and verification of dependable Transportation CPS In addition to reporting original research results and innovative applications, tutorial style papers on specific topics are also welcome. - Schedule - * Full paper submission deadline: December 1, 2017 * First author notification: March 15, 2018 * Revised paper due: June 1, 2018 * Final author notification: September 1, 2018 * Expected publication: February 2019 For further information, please contact samarjit(a)tum.de and tianhe(a)umn.edu. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you do not want to receive future emails about publishing in ACM journals, unsubscribe at: https://optout.acm.org/unsubscribe.cfm?re=wolf@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de&rl=CFP.
