 IEEE International Workshop on Security and Privacy of
Mobile, Wireless and Sensor Networks
                                                                               
9:00Am - 5:00pm, June 23, 2013
Co-located with IEEE SECON 2013<http://www.ieee-secon.org/> at new Orleans USA

To cope with the rapid increase in mobile users and the increasing demand for 
mobile, wireless and sensor networks (MWSNs), it is becoming imperative to 
provide the necessary security protocols and privacy guarantees to users of 
MWSNs. In turn, these specific demands in security and privacy require new 
methodologies that are specifically designed to cope with the strict 
requirements of the networks. In general, the real-world performance of MWSNs 
crucially depends on the selected protocols, and their suitability and 
efficiency for the layers of the implementation. A satisfactory security design 
and protocol are therefore crucial for the performance of MWSNs. It is a great 
challenge to achieve efficient and robust realizations of such highly dynamic 
and secure MWSNs. Moreover, the study of security and privacy in the context of 
MWSNs provides insights into problems and solutions that are orthogonal to 
programming languages, programming paradigms, computer hardware, and other 
aspects of the implementation. The objective for this workshop is to address 
those topics, which we believe will play an important role in current and 
future research on and education of MWSNs.

The workshop will focus on, but not limited to, the following areas:
 Security models and architectures for MWSNs;
 Routing security in MWSNs;
 MWSNs topology control/node access control;
 Anonymity/authentication and application;
 Various privacy and security models;
 Privacy-preserving systems;
 Security and verifiability in network protocols;
 Distributed systems security;
 Security and privacy policies;
 Intrusion detection;
 Educational topics on MWSNs;
 Case studies.

The workshop is planned for one day on June 23, 2013 before the conference, 
with two keynote speeches, two technical sessions, and a concluding panel 
discussion. The keynote speeches will be delivered by two well-known 
researchers in the field. All submissions must describe original research, not 
published nor currently under review for another workshop, conference, or 
journal. All papers must be submitted electronically via the EDAS system: 
http://edas.info/. Papers must be no longer than 8 pages and in font size no 
smaller than 10 points. Detailed layout guidelines except the page length are 
the same as recommended in http://www.ieee-secon.org. Submission implies the 
willingness of at least one author to attend the workshop and present the 
paper. Accepted papers will be included in the main proceedings of IEEE SECON 
2013 and published by IEEE. The presenter must register for the workshop before 
the deadline for author registration. The accepted papers will be compiled in 
the workshop proceedings as either a regular paper within 8-pages or a poster 
paper within 2-pages. A limited number of high quality submissions will be 
selected for publication in a special issue of International Journal of 
Security and Networks.  Reduced registration fees will be provided to selected 
participants through an NSF grant.
