***
Overview
===
The IEEE Conference on Dependable and Secure Computing solicits papers,
posters, practices, and experiences for presenting innovative research
results, problem solutions, and new challenges in the field of dependable and
secure computing. The whole spectrum of IT systems and application areas,
including hardware design and software systems, with stringent relevant to
dependability and security concerns are of interest to DSC. Authors are
invited to submit original works on research and practice of creating,
validating, deploying, and maintaining dependable and secure systems. The
scope of DSC includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:
** Track #1: Computer Systems, Networks, and Software
- Advanced Persistent Threat (APT)
- Big Data Analysis
- Botnet and Intrusion Detection
- Cryptographic Methods and Toolkits
- Cyber attacks
- Data/Information Reliability
- Database Security and Privacy
- Embedded Systems and IoT Devices
- Experimentation, Measurement, and Assessment
- Mobile and Cloud Computing
- SDN and NFV
** Track #2: System Electronics, VLSI, and CAD
- CAD Algorithms and Tools
- Electronic Circuits and Systems
- Fault-Tolerant Architectures and Designs
- Industrial Design Experiences
- Noise-Aware Designs
- Power-Aware Designs
- Soft-Error Analysis and Models
- Stochastic Circuits and Systems
- Temperature-Aware Designs
- Variable-Latency Designs
- Security Circuits, Designs and Detection
** Track #3: Experience and Practice
The DSC conference will also include a submission category for experience
and practice papers on new findings in the two aforementioned categories.
The PC will evaluate a submission to the experience and practice track with
the understanding that it predominantly contributes to the VLSI/CAD design
knowhow or the extension of the community's knowledge about how the
security protection of known techniques fares in real-world operations.
Authors have to submit a short paper along with slides and an optional
supplemental video to demonstrate the implementation and/or the
practicability of the work. Topics of interest include, but are not limited
to:
- Attacks on Information Systems and Digital Storage
- CSIRTs, Incident Analysis and Response
- Hacking Techniques and Countermeasures
- Honeypots/Honeynets
- Malware Analysis and Reversing
- Mobile Communications Security and Vulnerabilities
- Newly discovered vulnerabilities
- Offensive Information Technology
- Reverse Engineering, Forensics, and Anti-Forensics
- Spyware, Phishing and Distributed Attacks
- VLSI/CAD Design Knowhow
Manuscript Format
===
Papers should describe the original work with focus details. It should be no
more than 8 pages for regular papers and 2 pages for experience and practice
papers. Each submission will only be considered for one track - either the
main conference tracks or the experience track, but not both. Papers must be
written in English conforming to the IEEE standard conference format (US
letter, two-column). All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted
papers will appear in the conference proceedings and will be submitted for
inclusion in the IEEE Xplore digital library.
