STA 2011 Overview
=================
Information technology issue is emerging rapidly as an exciting new paradigm with user-centric environment to provide computing and communication services.
In order to realize IT advantages, it requires integrating security and data management to be suitable for future computing environments. However, there are still many problems and major challenges waiting for us to solve such as the security risks in resource sharing, which could be occurred when data resources are connected and accessed by anyone.
Therefore, it will be needed to explore more secure and trust and intelligent data management mechanism.
STA 2011 addresses the various theories and practical applications of secure and trust computing and data management in future environments. It will present important results of significant value to solve the application services and various problems within the scope of STA 2011.
In addition, we expect it will trigger further related research and technology developments which will improve our lives in the future.
STA 2011 is the first conference after the merger of the successful SSDU, UbiSec, and TRUST symposium series previously held as SSDU-10(Xi'an, China, 2010), SSDU-08(Kunming, China, 2008), SSDU-07(Nanjing, China, 2007), UC-Sec 09(Las Vegas, USA, 2009) and TRUST-08(Shanghai, China, 2008), TRUST-07(Taipei, Taiwan, 2007), TRUST-06(Seoul, Korea, 2006).

Instructions for papers in the Springer's LNCS/CCIS（Note that the paper format of CCIS is the same as that of LNCS）
- Prepare your paper in the exact format as the sample paper for LNCS/CCIS. Failure to do so may result in the exclusion of your paper from the proceedings. Please read the authors' instructions carefully before preparing your papers.
- Springer accepts both Microsoft Word and LaTex format in the Lecture Note Series. However, FTRA does not accept the use of LaTex. Therefore, you should use the Microsoft Word instead of using LaTex (The paper will be excluded from the proceeding if you use LaTex). Springer provides the relevant templates and sample files for both PC (sv-lncs.dot) and Mac (sv-lncs) environments.
- Please download word.zip at: http://www.springer.com/cda/content/document/cda_downloaddocument/word.zip?SGWID=0-0-45-72919-0.
