Computer and Communications Network Security Symposium

CALL FOR PAPERS

Brief description
-----------------
The IEEE GLOBECOM 2008 Computer and Communications Network Security
Symposium (CCNS) will be held in New Orleans, USA, November 2008.
With the advent of pervasive computer applications and due to the
proliferation of heterogeneous wired and wireless computer networks,
computer and network security has become paramount. The Computer and
Communications Network Security Symposium will address all aspects of
the modeling, design, implementation, deployment, and management of
computer/network security algorithms, protocols, architectures, and
systems. Furthermore, contributions devoted to the evaluation,
optimization, or enhancement of security mechanisms for current
technologies as well as devising efficient security and privacy
solutions for emerging technologies are solicited.
Original papers are invited in the area of computer and network
security. Papers must represent high-quality and previously unpublished
work.
Contributions in CCNS symposium target wired networks as well as
wireless networks.:
3G/ 4G, Satellite, IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth, Ad hoc, vehicular, Sensor and
RFID networks, WiMAX/ 802.16, 802.16e and Peer-to-peer systems.
