Fourth International Conference on New Technologies, Mobility and Security Technically Sponsored by IFIP TC6 WG, IEEE France and IEEE COMSOC February 7 - 10, 2011, Paris - France http://www.ntms-conf.org/ Overview -------- NTMS'2011 is the Fourth International Conference on New Technologies, Mobility and Security that will be held from 7 to 10 February 2011 in Paris, France. NTMS'2011 conference is technically sponsored by IEEE COMSOC, IFIP TC6 WG and IEEE France NTMS'2011 aims at fostering advances in the areas of New Technologies, Wireless Networks, Mobile Computing, Ad hoc and Ambient Networks, QoS, Network Security and E-commerce, to mention a few, and provides a dynamic forum for researchers, students and professionals to present their state-of-the-art research and development in these interesting areas. The event will be combined with tutorial sessions and workshops. Tutorials will precede the main program, aiming at the dissemination of mature knowledge and technology advances in the field. Two or more Workshops will immediately follow the main conference, offering the opportunity for a more focused exchange of ideas and presentation of on-going research relevant to following tracks (More information and the full call-for-papers can be found on the conference web): IMPORTANT DATES --------------- Draft papers should be submitted by September 28, 2010 Authors will receive the acceptance notification by November 18, 2010 Final papers for presentation should be sent before December 07, 2010 Tutorial & Workshop Submission/Proposal deadline: September 28, 2010 Notification of Tutorial & Workshop Acceptance: October 15, 2010 Track 1 : Mobility ------------------ Mobile 3G, 4G, LTE (Long Term Evolution), convergence (IMS, etc.) WiMAX, WLAN, DVB, WiFi PAN, BAN, WSN, UWB Wireless MAC protocols Media sensor and ad hoc networks Self-organizing of wireless networks Mesh networks and autonomic systems Satellite Systems Vehicular Communication Technologies and Systems Routing, QoS and scheduling Resource allocation management Analysis, simulation, measurement and performance evaluation Cross-layer network design and optimization Cognitive radio and smart antenna Testbed experiments, Mobile/Wireless Applications and Services Wireless and mobile multimedia systems Integration of heterogeneous mobile, wireless and wireline networks Mobility, location and handoff management Wireless services and middleware platforms Green communications Track 2: Security ----------------- Authentication protocols and services authorization Data and system integrity and confidentiality Availability of secure services Key Distribution and management, PKI and security management Trust models and Trust establishment Identity management, authentication and access control Deployment and management of computer/network security policies Monitoring Design for security, distributed Intrusion Detection Systems & Countermeasures Single and multi-source intrusion detection and response Traffic filtering and Firewalling IPv6 security, IPSec, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) Privacy, contract agreements, and payment systems Prevention, Detection and Reaction Design, and Revocation of malicious parties Light-weight cryptography Quantum Cryptography and QKD Applications of Cryptography and Cryptanalysis in communications security Mobile code security & Security management Secure PHY, MAC, Routing and upper layer protocols Secure Cross layer design Secure naming and addressing (Privacy and anonymity) Network security metrics and performance evaluation Security modelling and protocol design Smart cards and secure hardware Biometric security: technologies, risks and vulnerabilities Information hiding and watermarking Vulnerability, exploitation tools, and virus/worm analysis Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks and countermeasures Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems Web, e-mail , m-commerce, e-business and e-commerce security Testbeds, performance evaluation and formal specification methods Virtualization for security and reliability Track 3: New Technologies & services ------------------------------------ New generation Internet, Post IP and IPv6 NGN architectures, protocols and services management and delivery Web 2.0 applications and IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystems) Next generation systems & Service-oriented techniques IPTV and content distribution networks User-centric networking and services multimedia indexing and retrieval Personalized access to media systems Context/content-aware services Smart Homes and E-Health Web Commerce & Services, Data models, Web searching & querying Web Mining & Web Semantics Web service based Grid computing and P2P computing Advanced identification techniques (Biometrics, RFID, etc.) Virtualization technologies for grid and parallel computing.
