Dear colleague, [Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.]
**********************************Deadline Extended*************************************** ============================================================ ================= Automation Protocols Security in Cyber-Physical Systems (APS-CPS) November 8, 2016 - Singapore In conjunction with the ICNP 2016 conference http://www.aps-cps.org/home.html CALL FOR PAPERS ============================================================================= Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) consist of large scale interconnected systems of heterogeneous components interacting with their physical environments. In the CPS realm, humans and/or smart networked devices interact with and control the physical world around them through actuators, sensors, etc. “CPS is envisioned to transform the way people interact with engineered systems, just as the Internet transformed the way people interact with information." (US National Science Foundation). Today, the boundary between cyber and physical systems is blurring. In particular, when it comes to automation systems that provide automatic control of the operating devices (e.g., industrial devices, building installations, vehicles), the advancements in networking protocols provide the capability of automation systems to be interconnected, as well as connected to the Internet. This led to a vision of CPS where human beings interact with a multitude of CPS devices and applications in industrial, transportation, medical, home security, building automation, emergency management, power, and many other systems, which serve critical functions in our lives. Naive implementations of CPS applications may, however, expose them to malicious interference with potential serious impact on individuals, businesses, and nations. The security of automation protocols is thus an important aspect of CPSA security. Therefore, the International Workshop on Automation Protocols Security in CyberPhysical Systems (APSCPS) seeks novel submissions describing practical and theoretical solutions to securing automation protocols. Submissions may represent any application area for APSCPS. Hence, papers that are pertinent to the security of embedded systems, Internet of Things, SCADA Systems, SmartGrid Systems, Critical Infrastructure Networks, Transportation Systems, Medical Devices are all welcome. Example topics of interest are given below, but are not limited to: ● Secure APSCPS architectures ● Authentication mechanisms for APSCPS ● Access control for APSCPS ● Key management in APS CPS ● Data security and privacy for APSCPS ● Forensics for APSCPS ● Intrusion detection for APSCPS ● Trusted computing in APSCPS ● Energy efficient and secure APSCPS ● Availability, recovery and auditing for APSCPS ● Distributed secure solutions for APSCPS ● Threat models for APSCPS ● Physical layer security for APSCPS ● Security on heterogeneous APS CPS ● Secure protocol design in APSCPS ● Vulnerability analysis of APSCPS ● Anonymization in APSCPS ● Security of APSCPS in automotive systems ● Security of APSCPS in aerospace systems ● Security of embedded systems ● Security of APSCPS in medical devices/systems ● Security of APSCPS in civil engineering systems/devices ● Security of industrial control systems ● Security of Internet‐of‐Things Submission Instructions: Submitted papers must represent original material that is not currently under review in any other conference or journal, and has not been previously published. All submissions must be written in English with a maximum paper length of 6 (six) pages (including text, figures, and references) and formatted according to the two column IEEE conference format. Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE Digital Library after the conference and included in the IEEE ICNP proceedings. For more information about paper formatting please refer to the submission page of the ICNP Conference. Papers should be submitted using the EasyChair submission system, using the link that will be announced soon. Important Dates: Submission Deadline: July 30, 2016 Acceptance Notification: August 20, 2016 Camera Ready: August 26, 2016 Workshop Date: November 8, 2016 -- Thanks, Best Regards, Chhagan Lal, PhD, Research/Postdoc Fellow, University of Padua - Department of Mathematics, *SPRITZ - Security and Privacy Research Group*
