Papers offering novel research contributions in any aspect of computer
security are solicited for submission to the Eighth ACM Conference on Computer
and Communications Security. Papers may present theory, technique, applications,
or practical experience on topics including:
| access control security for mobile code cryptographic protocols key management information warfare |
authentication applied cryptography e-business/e-commerce privacy and anonymity secure networking |
accounting and audit data/system integrity intrusion detection security management security verification |
database and information system security smart-cards and secure PDAs inference and controlled disclosure intellectual property protection commercial and industry security |
The primary focus is on high-quality original unpublished research, case studies, and implementation experiences. We encourage submissions discussing the application and deployment of security technologies in practice.
Paper submissions
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published
or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with
proceedings. Papers should be at most 15 pages excluding the bibliography and
well-marked appendices (using 11-point font and reasonable margins on
letter-size paper), and at most 20 pages total. Committee members are not
required to read the appendices, and so the paper should be intelligible without
them. All submissions should be appropriately anonymized (i.e., papers should
not contain author names or affiliations, or obvious citations).
To submit a
paper, send to ccs8@dsi.unimi.it a plain
ASCII text email containing the title and abstract of your paper, the authors'
names, email and postal addresses, phone and fax numbers, and identification of
the contact author. If any bibliographic citations were blinded from the paper
for anonymous review, then include the full bibliographic citations in this
email message. To the same message, attach your submission (as a MIME
attachment) in PDF or portable postscript format. Do NOT send files formatted
for word processing packages (e.g., Microsoft Word or WordPerfect files). Papers
must be received by the deadline of April 30, 2001.
Accepted papers will be presented at the conference and published by the ACM
in a conference proceedings. Outstanding papers will be invited for possible
publication in a special issue of the ACM
Transactions on Information and System Security.
Panel proposals Proposals should be no longer than 5 pages in length, should include possible panelists and an indication of which panelists have confirmed participation. Send to ccs8@dsi.unimi.it a plain ASCII text email containing the title of your panel and contact information. To the same message, attach your proposal (as a MIME attachment) in ASCII, PDF, or portable postscript format. Do NOT send files formatted for word processing packages (e.g., Microsoft Word or WordPerfect files). Panel proposals must be received by the deadline of April 30, 2001.
