************CALL FOR PARTICIPATION********************** ************************************************* DIMACS Workshop on Theft in E-Commerce: Content, Identity, and Service April 14 - 15, 2005 DIMACS Center, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ
Organizers: Drew Dean, SRI International, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Markus Jakobsson, Indiana University, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Presented under the auspices of the Special Focus on Communication Security and Information Privacy. ************************************************ On April 14-15, 2005, we will hold a DIMACS workshop at Rutgers University, NJ, on the topic of Theft in E-Commerce. This will include but not be limited to theft of content, of identity, and of service. While theft is an old problem, the automated nature of e-commerce introduces new opportunities for traditional forms of theft, as well as entirely new forms of theft. The centrality of computation makes these threats a part of computer security. This is an area of research where we are seeing a lot of activity, and where we believe there is a great potential for valuable research contributions. While our primary interest is in defenses against theft, we are also interested in novel attacks and real data about attacks, as the defenders need to know what to defend against. For more information about the workshop location, organization, and the program (once finalized), please see: http://dimacs.rutgers.edu/Workshops/Intellectual/ We are soliciting contributions in these areas, for both long and short presentations (approx 30 minutes vs 10 minutes.) There are no proceedings, but we request that presentation material is submitted to the organizers at the time of the workshop, allowing it to be posted on the DIMACS webpage. In order to propose a talk, please contact one of the organizers, Markus Jakobsson ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) or Drew Dean ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) with a title and a short abstract by February 28, 2005 that allows us to determine whether your proposed talk will fit within the scope of the workshop. Please refer to the information on the webpage above for workshop registration, hotel reservation and travel information, and information on how to apply for financial support for those in need of this. There will be a limited number of scholarships to defray travel costs, with priority given to students and speakers who can not receive funding to attend. The workshop is sponsored by RSA Security. ************************************************************** Registration: Pre-registration deadline: April 7, 2005 Please see website for registration information. ********************************************************************* Information on participation, registration, accomodations, and travel can be found at: http://dimacs.rutgers.edu/Workshops/Intellectual/ **PLEASE BE SURE TO PRE-REGISTER EARLY** ******************************************************************** --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
