An increasing number of articles dealing with the graphics, the robotics or the artificial intelligence of games are to be found in journals dedicated to those topics. Moreover, during recent years various new journals have been founded dealing with aspects of games design. However, more general questions about the programming of games have not received much attention of late. To fill this gap, the team of Science of Computer Programming (SCP) decided to dedicate a special issue to all aspects of games programming including formal methods, tools and languages. SCP is an International journal of Elsevier that focuses on theoretical and practical aspects of software systems development, maintenance and use. SCP is a quality journal that guarantees high visibility and a fast track for publication. The guest editor solicits high-quality, new contributions that may address (but need not be limited to) the following questions: * Which programming languages are being used and why? * Have any extensions of programming languages been developed, particularly for games? * What generative (3rd generation) systems are currently available? * What can be said about methodology, life cycle and quality control?. * Are there any specific problems related to the programming of massive multi player games? * What can be said about the system administration of massive multi player games? * What software agents are being used? Deadline for submissions : January 15, 2006 Author's notification : March 15, 2006 Final version : August 1, 2006 Special issue's publication : Fall 2006 The submissions should be sent in PDF or Postscript to the guest editors via email: vlijmen(a)science.uva.nl. Authors who want to discuss potential submissions are encouraged to contact the guest editor at kleeuw(a)science.uva.nl. For details about the policy of the Science of Computer Programming journal, and the requirements for prospective authors see a recent issue of the journal and check the journal's web site http://www.elsevier.com/locate/scico/. We look forward to you submissions!

Ad Hoc networks are characterized with power-efficient protocols with cross-layer interactions where sensor networks are even more restricted with the requirement for the simplicty and power efficiency of hardware and protocol design which require stronger interactions among the protocol layers. It is therefore, necessary to evaluate security of ad-hoc and sensor networks and come up with efficient tradeoffs between design complexity, power efficiency and security aspects. The main purpose of this Special Issue is to promote further research interests and activities on security in ad hoc and sensor networks. We are interested in analytical, experimental, and systems-related papers in all aspects of ad hoc and sensor networks security. The topics of interest include (but are not limited to): 1) Authenication and authorization 2) Key distribution and management 3) Secure routing 4) Vulnerability analysis 5) Trust management 6) Intrusion detection (cross-layer modeling and analysis of misbehavior) 7) Intrusion response and tolerance 8) Cross layer study of Denial of Service attacks 9) Study of attack strategies and attack modeling 10) Performance analysis of secure medium access control 11) Evaluation of security architectures supported by IEEE 802.15.1, 802.15.3 and 802.15.4 protocols 12) Study of tradeoffs between security and system performance Paper Submission Submit full papers as PDF files by email to siadhoc(a)cs.umanitoba.ca. The papers must be less than twenty single-column, double-spaced pages, excluding figures, tables, and references, using a 12-point font size. For detailed formatting instructions,please refer to the guidelines available at the AD HOC Networks journal web site, http://www.elsevier.com/locate/adhoc/. In addition to the paper in PDF format, your submission should include the title of the paper, the names of the authors and their affiliations, postal address, phone, fax, and e-mail address of the corresponding author, an abstract with up to 200-250 words, and up to five keywords describing the contents of the paper. Key Dates: Submission of Papers December 22, 2005 Notification of Acceptance April 15, 2006 Final Camera-Ready Submission May 15, 2006 Publication Date: October 2006 _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu http://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/tccc
