Aims and Scope:
Mobile and Wireless communication networks offer organizations and users
several benefits, such as portability, mobility and flexibility, while
increasing everyday business productivity, and reducing installation
cost.
Wireless Local Area Networks, for instance, have been used in various
environments, such as business, home, conference centers, airports and
many more, allowing users to move from place to place, avoiding cabling
restrictions and without being disconnected from the network. Ad Hoc
Networks are collections of wireless computers communicating among
themselves over possibly multihop paths, without the help of any
infrastructure such as base stations or access points; these networks
allow data synchronization with network systems and application sharing
between devices. Mobile Ad Hoc Networks are autonomous collection of
mobile entities that communicate over relatively bandwidth constrained
wireless links, establishing survivable, efficient, dynamic
communication
for emergency operations. Wireless Ad Hoc Sensor Networks consist of a
number of sensors spread across a geographical area, offering certain
capabilities and enhancements in operational efficiency in civilian
applications, as well as assisting in international effort to increase
alertness to potential threats.
However, although Mobile and Wireless Networking environments eliminate
many of the problems associated with traditional wired networks, the new
security and privacy risks introduced by such environments need to be
reduced by exploiting appropriate security measures and safeguards,
ensuring an acceptable level of overall residual hazard.
The objectives of the SecPri_MobiWi 2006 Workshop are to bring together
researchers from research communities in Mobile and Wireless Networking,
Security and Privacy, with the goal of fostering interaction.
List of topics:
We welcome the submission of papers from the full spectrum of issues
related with Security and Privacy in Mobile and Wireless Networking.
Papers may focus on protocols, architectures, methods, technologies,
applications, practical experiences, simulation results and analysis,
theory and validation on topics include, but not limited to:
* Cryptographic Protocols for Mobile and Wireless Networks
* Key Management in Mobile and Wireless Computing
* Reasoning about Security and Privacy
* Privacy and Anonymity in Mobile and Wireless Computing
* Public Key Infrastructure in Mobile and Wireless Environments
* Economics of Security and Privacy in Wireless and Mobile environments
* Security Architectures and Protocols in Wireless LANs
* Security Architectures and Protocols in B3G/4G Mobile Networks
* Security and Privacy features into Mobile and Wearable devices
* Location Privacy
* Ad hoc Networks Security
* Sensor Networks Security
* Wireless Ad Hoc Networks Security
* Role of Sensors to Enable Security
* Security and Privacy in Pervasive Computing
* Trust Establishment, Negotiation, and Management
* Secure PHY/MAC/routing protocols
* Security under Resource Constraints (bandwidth, memory, energy, and
computation constraints)

Paper Submission and Proceedings:
The SecPri_MobiWi 2006 workshop welcomes original papers from academic,
government, and industry contributors dealing with the above or related
issues. Papers, which describe ongoing research or provide an excellent
surveying work, are welcome too. All submissions will be subjected to a
thorough review by at least three reviewers. Submitted papers should be
up
to 6.000 words in English, including tables, figures, bibliography and
well-marked appendices. The paper must start with a title, paper's
author(s) affiliations, a short abstract, and a list of keywords
following
the template indicated by Springer LNCS Series
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html. Following the IFIP
NETWORKING 2006 procedures, papers must be submitted electronically. The
cover page must contain an abstract of about 150 words, 3-5 keywords,
name
and affiliation of author(s) as well as the corresponding author's email
and postal address. Following the IFIP NETWORKING 2006 procedures,
papers
must be submitted electronically using the following link:
http://www.webchairing.com/wsec/submission/. Problems related with paper
submission should be reported to networking2006@dei.uc.pt. Accepted
papers will be published in the SecPri_MobiWi 2006 Proceedings under an
ISBN reference and will be distributed to the workshop attendees. The
best papers of the SecPri_MobiWi 2006 will also be considered for
publication for a limited Book and/or special issue Journal edition. At
least one author of each accepted paper is required to register at the
IFIP Networking 2006 Conference and present the paper at the Workshop.
