Workshop on Grid Security & Privacy 2005 - Call for Papers
September 2005
Athens, Greece

Held at SecureComm (http://www.securecomm.org/)
Workshop Website: http://gipse.cse.nd.edu/GSP

Scope:

Until recently, application developers could often assume a target 
environment that was homogeneous, reliable, secure, and centrally 
managed. However, with the advent of collaborative computing and data 
sharing, more and more new modes of interaction have evolved resulting 
in the need and use of distributed resources for large-scale scientific 
research. Work within this community has led to the development of Grid 
technologies, which address precisely these problems and which are 
seeing widespread and successful adoption for scientific and enterprise 
computing. In grid computing, heterogeneous resources distributed 
geographically are virtualized as a unified whole. Grid computing, as a 
result, provides enormous opportunity in terms of resource sharing, 
maximization of resource utilization and virtualization of resources. 
Because of its immense potential, not only the scientific community, but 
also the enterprise IT communities are excited about the prospect of 
grid computing. However, researchers and developers of grid computing 
are worried about the possible security issues and implication of 
wide-spread use of grid computing. Since, grid computing involves 
running of applications in diverse environments, different types of 
security issues arise. The goal of the Workshop on Grid Security and 
Privacy 2005 is to have a profound understanding of the security issues, 
counter measures and research problems that exist in the realm of grid 
computing through the sharing of ideas. To achieve this goal, this 
workshop solicits original, previously unpublished research 
contributions on (but not restricted to) the following subject categories:

    * Secure algorithms and protocols over grid
    * Grid Sandboxing Techniques
    * Policy mapping and virtualization techniques over grid
    * Grid Intrusion Detection techniques
    * Secure grid solutions and its applications
    * Obfuscation and privacy mechanisms over grid
    * Grid based auditing techniques

Submission of Papers :

Authors are invited to submit complete and original papers. Papers to be 
submitted should not have been previously published in another forum, 
and should not be currently under review by another journal or 
conference. All submitted papers will be refereed for quality, 
correctness, originality and relevance. An accepted paper must be 
presented by one of the authors at the workshop venue. These accepted 
papers will be published as part of the SecureComm conference 
proceedings via CD-ROM. All manuscripts must be limited to 10 pages with 
font size 11 in standard IEEE camera ready format (double column). The 
Program Committee reserves the right to decline without review any 
papers that exceed these length specifications. Submissions also must 
include the title, author(s) and affiliation, e-mail address, fax/phone 
numbers and postal address. In case of multiple authors, indicate which 
author is responsible for correspondence and preparing the camera ready 
paper for the proceedings. Electronic submission is required via ps or pdf.

Important Dates:

Paper Submission: April 15, 2005
Notification: May 23, 2005
Camera-Ready: June 10, 2005 (Absolute deadline)
