AIMS & SCOPE
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a technology for automatic identification of remote people and objects without line of sight. The deployment and use of RFID technology is growing rapidly across many different industries. It cannot only be used in traditional applications (e.g., asset or inventory tracking), but also in security services such as electronic passports and RFID-embedded credit cards. At the same time, the Internet of Things (IoT), which will represent the backbone of modern society and the next-generation Internet, have showed a strong potential to meet the information-processing demands of smart environments. However, RFID and IoTs may also bring great challenges for the security and privacy of curernt systems and processes. For example, with the rapid deployment of RFID and a nature of wireless network, a number of concerns regarding security and privacy have been raised, e.g., clandestine tracking and inventorying. On the other hand, certain IoT applications will be tightly linked to sensitive infrastructures and strategic services, like the distribution of water and electricity. As a result, there is a great need to design and implement privacy and security technologies for RFID and IoTs in different domains. This special issue will focus on RFID and IoTs, and attempts to solicit original research papers that discuss the security and privacy issues and opportunities. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: The goal of this special issue is to collect high-quality contributions to address the -security and privacy concerns for RFID and IoTs. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the ones listed below. -Adversarial modeling for RFID and IoTs -Vulnerability Assessment and testing for RFID and IoTs -Intrusion detection and prevention schemes for RFID and IoTs -Tracing back mobile attackers for RFID and IoTs -New applications for secure RFID and IoTs -Lightweight privacy-preserving RFID protocols & systems -Efficient implementation of lightweight cryptographic protocols for RFID and IoTs -Cryptographic hardware development for RFID and IoTs -Design and analysis of fast and compact RFID based cryptographic algorithms -Formal methods for analysis of lightweight cryptographic protocols for RFID and IoTs -Security and privacy issues in RFID and IoTs -Low-cost side-channel countermeasures for RFID and IoTs -Side-channel analysis of exist protocols and implementations for RFID and IoTs Submission Guidelines: Authors should prepare their manuscript according to the Guide for Authors available from the online submission page of the Future Generation Computer Systems at https://www.elsevier.com/journals/future-generation-computer-systems/0167-739x/guide-for-authors.
