Brief Description
With the advent of
pervasive computer applications and due to the proliferation of heterogeneous
wired and wireless networks, computer and network security has become
paramount. The ChinaCom2008 Network
and Information Security Symposium will address all aspects of the modeling,
design, implementation, deployment, and management of computer/network security
algorithms, protocols, architectures, and systems. Furthermore, contributions
to the evaluation, optimization, and/or enhancement of security mechanisms for
current technologies as well as the achievements in devising efficient security
and privacy solutions for emerging technologies are solicited. High-quality and
original research papers are solicited in all areas of computer and network
security systems. The symposium solicits original
papers on all aspects of network and information
security.
