Intelligent Security for a Smart City ISSC’17

Call for paper

The Intelligent Security for Smart City International Workshop will be held in Tangier-Morocco, October 25-27, 201, in conjunction with the Mediterranean Symposium on Smart City Applications (ScAMS'17). Cyber Security has become an extremely dynamic sector under the combined effect of cloud computing, mobility, social networks and the exponential development of computer threats. We invite papers on program protection, reverse engineering, and software security used in legitimate contexts. Particular interest will be given on studies and experiments that explore the boundary of both practical methods and their theoretical limits. Topics for the workshop can cover a wide variety of tools, techniques, and methodologies related to security aspects of software and hardware systems, with particular focus on subversion/exploitation or protection of program integrity, confidentiality, authorization, and intellectual property. Ongoing work with preliminary results, theoretical approaches, tool-based methods, and empirical studies on various methods are all appropriate for submission. Modeling of software security, attacks, metrics and evaluation frameworks, and new cutting-edge techniques are in view as well. Papers can address studies on hardware/circuit based methods or software/assembly based mechanisms. We expect the workshop to provide exchange of ideas and support for cooperative relationships among researchers in industry, academia, and government.
