The 12th Annual Network and Distributed System Security Symposium
Catamaran Resort Hotel
San Diego, California
3-4 February 2005-Symposium
2 February 2005-Pre-Conference Workshop
Call
for Papers
IMPORTANT
DATES
CHANGED! Paper and panel submissions due: Tuesday 23:59 PST, 24 August, 2004
The Program Chairs for NDSS'05 have decided to give
a one day extension for the NDSS submission deadline.
Due to the overwhelming response to the Call for Papers,
the deadline will now be Tuesday 23:59 PST, 24 August, 2004.
Author notification: Friday, October 8th, 2004.
Final version of papers and panels due: Sunday, November 7th, 2004.
GOAL:
The symposium fosters information exchange among research scientists
and practitioners of network and distributed system security services.
The target audience includes those interested in practical aspects of
network and distributed system security, with a focus on actual system
design and implementation (rather than theory). A major goal is to encourage
and enable the Internet community to apply, deploy, and advance the
state of available security technology. The proceedings are published
by the Internet Society.
HOW TO SUBMIT: Submission instructions will be available at
http://crypto.stanford.edu/ndss05/
SUBMISSIONS:
Both technical papers and panel proposals are solicited. Technical papers
must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that
are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings.
Technical papers should be at most 12 pages excluding the bibliography
and well-marked appendices (using 11-point font, single column format,
and reasonable margins on 8.5"x11" or A4 paper), and at most
20 pages total. Committee members are not required to read the appendices,
so the paper should be intelligible without them. Technical papers will
appear in the proceedings. Panel proposals should be one page and must
describe the topic, identify the panel chair, explain the panel format,
and list three to four potential panelists. A description of each panel
will appear in the proceedings, and may, at the discretion of the panel
chair, include written position statements from the panelists.
Submissions are
solicited in, but not limited to, the following areas:
-
Integrating
security in Internet protocols: routing, naming, TCP/IP, multicast,
network management, and the Web.
-
Intrusion
avoidance, detection, and response: systems, experiences and architectures.
-
Privacy
and anonymity technologies.
-
Network
perimeter controls: firewalls, packet filters, application gateways.
Virtual private networks.
-
Public
key infrastructure, key management, certification, and revocation.
-
Secure
electronic commerce: e.g., payment, barter, EDI, notarization, timestamping,
endorsement, and licensing.
-
Supporting
security mechanisms and APIs; audit trails; accountability.
-
Implementation,
deployment and management of network security policies.
-
Intellectual
property protection: protocols, implementations, metering, watermarking,
digital rights management.
-
Fundamental
services on network and distributed systems: authentication, data
integrity, confidentiality, authorization, non-repudiation, and availability.
-
Integrating
security services with system and application security facilities
and protocols: e.g., message handling, file transport/access, directories,
time synchronization, data base management, boot services, mobile
computing.
-
Security
for emerging technologies: sensor networks, specialized testbeds,
wireless/mobile (and ad hoc) networks, personal communication systems,
peer-to-peer and overlay network systems.
-
Special
problems and case studies: e.g., tradeoffs between security and efficiency,
usability, reliability and cost.
-
Security
for collaborative applications: teleconferencing and video-conferencing,
electronic voting, groupwork, etc.
-
Software
hardening: e.g., detecting and defending against software bugs (overflows,
etc.)
-
Each
submission must contain a separate Submission Overview specifying
the submission type (paper or panel), the title or topic, author names
with organizational affiliations, and must specify a contact author
along with corresponding phone number, FAX number, postal address
and email address.
Submissions must
be received by 11:59pm PST, August 23rd, 2004, and must be made electronically
in PDF format (for example, by using pdflatex). Each submission will
be acknowledged by e-mail; if acknowledgment is not received within
seven days, contact a program co-chair (see below). Authors and panelists
will be notified of acceptance by October 8th, 2004, and given instructions
for preparing the camera-ready copy. The camera-ready copy must be received
by November 7th, 2004.
