WCAN'06
2nd Workshop on Cryptography for Ad hoc Networks
July 16th, 2006 location: S. Servolo Island, Venice, Italy
A Satellite Workshop of the 33rd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming (ICALP 2006)

________________________________ CALL FOR PAPERS
Wireless ad hoc networks are today receiving a lot of attention for militar, commercial and civilian applications, thus raising several challenging security, privacy and anonimity research questions. The security research community has mainly focused on securing routing and is only recently widening its scope of analysis to other security areas. The cryptography research community has mainly focused on abstract models of networks like the Internet; however, cryptographic protocols for the Internet face serious challenges to be adapted to the ad-hoc, partial-connectivity, mobile, resource-constrained and infrastructureless nature of ad-hoc networks. The aim of this workshop is to help bridging this gap, towards a more comprehensive investigation of security and cryptographic tools, analysis and modeling methodologies over ad hoc networks, by bringing together the cryptography, network security, and wireless networking communities.
We seek submissions containing original research on all aspects of cryptology that are motivated by their applicability to ad hoc networks, including wireless, cellular, sensor, mesh, peer-to-peer and RFID-based networks. Short surveys of related sub-areas are also encouraged. The following is a non-exhaustive list of topics that are of interest to this workshop, when clearly motivated by and clearly focusing on ad hoc networks (cryptology papers not focusing on or not describing applications to ad hoc networks do not fit in the workshop interest area):
- Modeling of cryptographic tasks - Solutions to cryptographic tasks under party mobility - Solutions to cryptographic tasks under resource constraints - Secure routing - Bootstrapping of security associations - Distributed public-key infrastructures - Key-agreement, key-management and key-(pre)distribution - Entity authentication - Trust establishment - Privacy-enhancing technologies - Threshold cryptography - Identity-Based cryptography - Policy-based cryptography - Secure multi-party protocols - Security in distributed algorithms and protocols ________________________________

Author Instructions: Two Paper Categories: Regular papers and Surveys. (Please explicitly specify category in the title, for example "Survey Paper: All Cryptographic Schemes for Ad Hoc Networks".)
Submission Instructions: Submissions need to be at most 8-page long in a standard one-column format (suggested format: LaTeX, in article style), excluding appendices. Authors can e-mail their submission (including title, abstract, and keywords in the first page) in .pdf or .ps format to wcan06chair@research.telcordia.com, specifying in the e-mail title and authors of the submission
Submitted papers must be original work that is authorized to be released and does not substantially duplicate work that has been previously published or is currently being refereed for publication in another workshop, conference or journal.
Papers accepted to this workshop will be published on the Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science (ENTCS). Authors of accepted papers will need to write their final version in LaTeX, using ENTCS style files, and send the resulting .pdf file
