Special Issue on Security and Identity Architecture for the Future Internet
As the Internet is hitting its limits, its successor is being discussed in different fora such as the Next Generation Internet (NGI) and the Future Internet Assembly (FIA). Government funding programs have been established for instance in Europe, Japan, Korea, and the US to foster the research addressing challenges of future networks including scalability, mobility, service provisioning, and, in particular, identity management. One crucial requirement for any solution is that security and privacy be an integral part of the design. We invite authors to submit original research and review articles that explore different identity aspects to address the limitation of the Internet and/or offer potential solutions and models for the design of future networks where security and privacy are built-in.
Potential topics regarding security and identity include, but are not limited to:
Development and testing of novel and effective advanced architectures for the Future Internet
Development of new strategies for Future Internet models
Information-centric networking (ICN) approaches
Experiences with deployment and testbeds
Future Internet architectures’ resiliency and trustworthiness
"Clean-slate" multi-disciplinary research on new architectures
Internet of Things
Submissions will be judged based on their originality, novelty, and quality. Submissions must not substantially overlap with papers that have previously published or are currently submitted for publication.
Important dates
