CFP: BodyNets 2013 Special Track on Privacy, Security and Trust in Body Area Networks (PSTBAN)****
Paper submission deadline: *June 17, 2013***** Conference dates: September 30, 2013 - October 2, 2013 Boston, MA**** ** ** Technically-sponsored by IEEE EMB and ACM SIGCHI. Proceedings to be published by ACM**** http://bodynets.org/2013/media/uploads/cf-papers-pstban.html**** Body area networks (BodyNets) are a promising radio technology with many potential applications in healthcare, surveillance, entertainment, etc. As BodyNets are used to gather, process and wirelessly transmit physiological signals, security, privacy and trust must be assured during BodyNets operation. Due to the constrained resources available to the miniaturized BodyNets devices, it becomes very challenging when it comes to the design of usable, secure and trustworthy mechanisms for BodyNets. New proposals are called to address both theoretical and practical aspects of security, privacy and trust in BodyNets.**** ** ** TOPICS OF INTEREST:**** - Security and trust establishment for BodyNets**** - Privacy-preserving protocol design for data sensing, processing and transmission**** - Physical layer security**** - Cross-layer design for security, privacy and trust in BodyNets**** - Practical implementation of security, privacy and trust in BodyNets*** * - Lightweight approaches for security and privacy in BodyNets**** - Biometrics security for BodyNets**** - Theoretical design using techniques such as information theory and game theory**** ** ** IMPORTANT DATES**** Paper submission deadline: *June 17, 2013***** Notification deadline: *July 15, 2013***** Camera ready deadline: *August 5, 2013* ** ** PAPER SUBMISSION**** Regular papers are limited to 7 pages, short papers to 4 pages and poster/demo papers to 1 page.
