12th Joint IFIP TC6 and TC11 Conference on
Communications and Multimedia Security,
CMS'2011,
October 19–21 , 2011, Ghent, Belgium
_______________________________________________________________________________

CMS'2011 is the 12th Conference in the “Communications and Multimedia
Security" series. The series is a joint effort of IFIP Technical Committees
TC6 (Communication Systems) and TC11 (Security and Protection in Information
Processing Systems).
The conference provides a forum for engineers and scientists in information
security. Both state-of-the-art issues and practical experiences as well as
new trends in these areas will be once more the focus of interest just like
at preceding conferences.
This year, the conference will address in particular security and privacy
issues in mobile contexts, web services (including social networking) and
ubiquitous environments.
We solicit papers describing original ideas and research results on topics
that include, but are not limited to:
• applied cryptography
• biometrics
• secure documents and archives
• multimedia systems security
• digital watermarking
• distributed DRM policies
• attack resistant rendering engines
• adaptive anomaly detection
• censorship resistance
• risk management
• mobility and security/privacy
• mobile identities
• privacy enhanced identity management
• security/privacy policies and preferences
• social networks security/privacy
• security/privacy in geo-localized applications
• security/privacy in VoIP`
• security policies (including usage control)
• web services security
• economics of network and information security (NIS)
• SOA security
• ubiquitous and ambient computing security
• cloud computing security/privacy
• wireless and ad hoc network security
• RFID tags and (multimedia) sensor nodes security

Instruction for authors:

The conference will include two refereed paper tracks: the Research track
and the Industry/Government/Work-in-progress track. In addition, the
conference will also feature a poster session.

Paper submissions for the Research track must be written in English,
formatted in the conference style (limited to 12 pages, see the conference
web site for a style template and submission instructions). The paper must
be anonymous, with no author names, affiliations, acknowledgements, or
obvious references. Authors are requested to submit original papers only.
Papers that have previously been published and papers that are currently
being considered for publication by another journal or conference are not
eligible.
Each paper must include a short abstract and a list of keywords indicating
subject classification. Its introduction should summarize the contributions
of the paper at a level appropriate for a non-specialist reader.

Paper submissions for the Industry/Government/Work-in-progress track are
limited to 6 pages (see also conference website for the instructions). These
papers highlight applications or present work-in-progress. They should also
address challenges, lessons learned or research issues arising out of –both
successful and unsuccessful- deployment of such applications. Note, however,
that sufficient technical content is required.

For poster submissions, a title and an abstract (max 2 pages) is required.
Accepted posters will be published in the proceedings as extended abstracts.

All submitted papers will be refereed by members of the Programme Committee
for correctness, originality, relevance to the conference and quality of
presentation. Acceptance of a paper or poster means an obligation for at
least one of the authors to attend the conference and present the paper or
poster.

The most outstanding research paper, presented at the conference, will
receive a "Best paper award".

The proceedings will be published by Springer.

To submit a paper or a poster, visit the conference web site.
