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 Database security Anonymity Security protocols Privacy Information flow

Authentication Network security Intrusion detection Security models Executable content Language-based security

Data and system integrity Distributed systems security Security for mobile computing Decidability issues Formal methods for security

For background information about the workshop, see 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 this web page. 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.

Workshop Location

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.
