        Computer and Communications Network Security Symposium

                            CALL FOR PAPERS

Brief description
-----------------
The IEEE GLOBECOM 2008 Computer and Communications Network Security Symposium 
(CCNS) will be held in New Orleans, USA, November 2008. 
With the advent of pervasive computer applications and due to the 
proliferation of heterogeneous wired and wireless computer networks, computer 
and network security has become paramount. The Computer and Communications 
Network 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 
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. 
Original papers are invited in the area of computer and network security. 
Papers must represent high-quality and previously unpublished work. 
Contributions in CCNS symposium target wired networks as well as wireless 
networks.: 
3G/ 4G, Satellite, IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth, Ad hoc, vehicular, Sensor and RFID 
 networks, WiMAX/ 802.16, 802.16e and Peer-to-peer systems.
