First Call For Papers
16th IEEE Computer Security Foundations Workshop
June 30 - July 2, 2003
Asilomar, Pacific Grove, CA, USA
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sponsored by the Technical Committee on Security and Privacy of the IEEE
Computer Society
This workshop series brings together researchers in computer science to
examine foundational issues in computer security. We are interested both
in new results in theories of computer security and also in more
exploratory presentations that examine open questions and raise
fundamental concerns about existing theories. Both papers and panel
proposals are welcome.
Possible topics include, but are not limited to:
Access control Authentication Data and system integrity
Database security Network security Distributed systems
security
Anonymity Intrusion detection Security for mobile
computing
Security protocols Security models Decidability issues
Privacy Executable content Formal methods for
security
Information flow Language-based security
For background information about the workshop, and an html version of
this Call for Papers, see http://www.csl.sri.com/csfw/index.html (the
CSFW home page). This year the workshop will be held in Pacific Grove,
CA, USA. Information about the location and the organization will be
soon available on the web page. (http://www.csl.sri.com/csfw/csfw16).
The proceedings are published by the IEEE Computer Society Press and
will be available at the workshop. Selected papers will be invited for
submission to the Journal of Computer Security.
Instructions for Participants
-----------------------------
Submission is open to anyone. Workshop attendance is limited to about
50 participants. Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers
that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a
journal or a conference with proceedings. Papers should be at most 20
pages long excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices (using
11-point font, single column format, and reasonable margins on 8.5"x11"
paper), and at most 25 pages total. Alternatively, papers can be
submitted using the two-column IEEE Proceedings style available for
various document preparation systems at
ftp://pubftp.computer.org/Press/Outgoing/proceedings/. Papers in this
style should be at most 12 pages long (at most 15 pages including
bibliography and appendices). The page limit will be strictly adhered
to. Committee members are not required to read the appendices, and so
the paper should be intelligible without them. Proposals for panels
should be no more than five pages in length and should include possible
panelists and an indication of which of those panelists have confirmed
participation.
Instructions about how to submit a paper will be soon available on the
web page (http://www.csl.sri.com/csfw/csfw16). If for any reason you
cannot conform to those submission guidelines, please contact the
program chair at focardi@dsi.unive.it. Papers should be submitted in
Postscript or Portable Document Format (PDF). Papers submitted in a
proprietary word-processor format such as Microsoft Word cannot be
considered.
At least one coauthor of each accepted paper is expected to attend
CSFW-16. Papers that do not adhere to this policy will be removed from
the proceedings.

Heiko Mantel, DFKI, Saarbrastline situated on the
Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. Founded in 1913 as the western
conference center for the Young Women's Christian Association (YWCA), it
is the ideal conference setting.
Asilomar offers secluded guest rooms with forest or marine views. Rooms
are clustered into quaint lodges, some of which feature fireplaces.
Sunset walks along the beach and coastal trails are a great way to
unwind. On-site recreation includes a heated swimming pool, volleyball
and billiard tables.
Just minutes away is Pebble Beach, featuring world-class golf courses
and scenic 17-Mile Drive. And some of the most breathtaking coastline
in the world can be found just 20 minutes to the south toward Big Sur
along Hwy 1. Also nearby is the Monterey Bay Aquarium, featuring
spectacular, deep-sea and kelp forest exhibits. Monterey Bay hosts a
unique deep-sea environment close to shore. There is an underwater
canyon over 2km deep at around 15km from shore. The Monterey Bay
Aquarium will share their deep-sea, robotic observations and experiences
with conference attendees on the evening of 1 July 2003.
Asilomar is 2.3 hours by car from San Francisco International Airport
(SFO). There are direct flights between San Francisco and most major
European and American cities. The Monterey regional airport (MRY) is 10
minutes by car from Asilomar. There are direct flights to MRY from Los
Angeles International Airport (LAX) and SFO about every 2 hours until
10pm. More travel information can be found on the CSFW16 website.
