==================================================

Second International Conference on Security in Pervasive Computing (SPC-2005)

April 6 - 8, 2005 in Boppard, Germany

http://www.spc-conf.org

===================================================

The ongoing compression of computing facilities into small and mobile devices like handhelds, portables or even wearable computers will enhance an ubiquitous information processing. The basic para- digm of such a pervasive computing is the combination of strongly decentralized and distributed computing with the help of diversified devices allowing for spontaneous connectivity via the internet. Computers will become invisible to the users awareness and exchange of information between devices will effectively defy users control.

The objective of this conference is to develop new security concepts for complex application scenarios based on systems like handhelds, phones, smartcards, and smart labels hand in hand with the emerg- ing technology of ubiquitous and pervasive computing. Particular subjects are methods and technology concerning the identification of risks, the definition of security policies, and the development of security measures that are related to the specific aspects of ubiquitous and pervasive computing like mobility, communication, and secure hardware/software platforms.

Organisation: -----------------

The conference is organised jointly by the German Information Security Agency (BSI) and the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI)

The conference will take place in an old former monastery in Boppard, Germany. Boppard is a nice small town located in the rhine valley about one hour away from Frankfurt airport.

The conference fee of 400 Euro (full time students 300 Euro) covers the accomodation (single rooms) for 3 nights (April 6-8, 2005), all meals and refreshments, conference dinner and Springer LNCS conference proceedings. Registration is available at http://www.spc-conf.org
