Special Issue on "Security and Privacy in Ubiquitous Computing"
Security and Communication Networks (SCN)
http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/114299116/home
The research area of mobile computing has become more important
following the recent widespread drive towards mobile ad hoc networks,
wireless sensor networks and vehicular ad hoc network tracking
technologies and their applications. The availability of high bandwidth
3G infrastructures and the pervasive deployment of low cost WiFi
infrastructures and WiMAX to create hotspots around the world serve to
accelerate the development of mobile computing towards ubiquitous
computing. Security and privacy in converged computing systems are
considered an important part of these systems, and pose challenging open
problems.
This special issue aims to collect contributions by leading-edge
researchers from academia and industry, show the latest research results
in the field of security and privacy in ubiquitous computing, and
provide valuable information to researchers as well as practitioners,
standards developers and policymakers.
This special issue will focus on the research challenges and issues in
security and privacy in ubiquitous computing. Manuscripts regarding
novel algorithms, architectures, implementations and experiences are
welcome. Topics include but are not limited to:
- Secure architectures for converged communication networks
- Multi-hop authentication and authorization
- Context-aware security in computing
- Security management of mobile data
- Security for ubiquitous multimedia communication
- Secure user interactions and ubiquitous services
- Security and privacy in location based services
- Security and privacy in mobile social networks
- Trust management in ubiquitous services
- Security in home networks
- Homeland security and surveillance
- Trusted cloud computing
- Secure group communication/multicast
- Secure machine-to-machine communication
- Security in portable devices and wearable computers
- Privacy protection in distributed data mining
- Energy efficient intrusion detection schemes in mobile computing
Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research,
not currently under review by another conference or journal, are solicited.
*Submission*
Concerning the preparation of manuscripts, please refer to the
"Instructions for Authors" page at the journal website,
http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/114299116/home/ForAuthors.html.Manuscripts
must be submitted through the online submission system:
http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/scn by selecting the corresponding
track.When submitting papers, authors should identify "Manuscript Type"
as "Special Issue", and enter "Running Head" and "Special Issue Title"
