Scope
The IEEE GLOBECOM 2006 Computer and Network Security Systems Symposium will be held in San Francisco, CA USA, 27 November - 1 December 2006. Original papers are invited in the area of computers, information and communication networks security. With the advent of pervasive computer applications and due to the proliferation of heterogeneous wired and wireless computer networks, computer and communications network security has become paramount. The Computer and Network Security System Symposium will address all aspects of the modeling, design, implementation, deployment, and management of computer/network security algorithms, protocols, key distribution , architectures, transmission and systems. Furthermore, contributions devoted to the evaluation, optimization, or enhancement of security mechanisms for current technologies as well as devising efficient security and privacy solutions for emerging technologies are solicited. Papers must represent high-quality and previously unpublished work. The goal of this Symposium is to publish original articles of interest to the general wireless , wired and optical community, and to advance the state of the art of computer and communications network security systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following.
