Special Issue on "Advances in Security and Multimodality for Pervasive Computing Environments"

SMPE-10: http://www.ftrg.org/smpe2010

Pervasive, or ubiquitous, computing calls for the deployment of a wide variety of smart devices throughout our working and living spaces. These devices are intended to react to their environment and coordinate with each other and with other network services. This results in a giant, ad-hoc distributed system, with tens of thousands of people, devices, and services coming and going. Due to the uncertainty and mobility of pervasive computing environments, trust modelling has been regarded as an important problem. Context-awareness, mobility and integration are the properties every pervasive computing environment embodies. Pervasive computing environments (PE) present specific peculiarities with respect to aspects like security and multimodality. While enlarging and easing the ways to access to the environment, security threats arise and the environment must be properly equipped in order to protect itself from malicious attacks and/or from wrong action performed by inexpert user s.

Research areas of relevance to this special issue as listed, but not only limited to: * Context-Awareness in multimodal applications * Middleware services for multimodal and pervasive applications * Trust models and frameworks for PE * Multimodal mobile and ubiquitous services * Intelligent Context-Aware System Architecture in PE * Security model for pervasive computing * Advanced multimodal interfaces * Human oriented interfaces * Virtual reality and ubiquitous computing * Security standards for next pervasive computing * Key management and authentication in pervasive computing * Security in Human Centred Environments * Intelligent multimedia security services in pervasive computing
