        Scope and Topics of Symposium 11

The general systems of today are composed of a number of components such as servers and clients, protocols, services, and so on. Systems connected to network have become more complex and wide, but the researches for the systems are focused on the ‘performance’ or ‘efficiency’.

While most of the attention in system security has been focused on encryption technology and protocols for securing the data transaction, it is critical to note that a weakness (or security hole) in any one of the components may comprise whole system.

Security engineering is needed for reducing security holes may be included in the software. There are very many approaches or methods in software development or software engineering. Therefore, more security-related researches are needed to reduce security weakness may be included in the software and complement security-related considerations of general software engineering.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to

- Approaches or methods for securing IT products or applications,

- Approaches or methods for securing development processes,

- Approaches or methods for securing operational environments,

- Approaches or methods for assuring of security countermeasures,

- Parallel use of security assurance approaches or methods,  

- Wireless network security and assurance,

- Common criteria (CC) and protection profile (PP)

Scope and Topics of Symposium 12

 

Ubiquitous computing is regarded as the third wave in computing and expanded to many computing areas. First were mainframes, each shared by lots of people. Now we are in the personal computing era, person and machine staring uneasily at each other across the desktop. Next may come ubiquitous computing.

Many researchers have been researching into Ubiquitous computing, and the research for Ubiquitous Sensor Network may be started by the development of RFID.

 The RFID technology will be the base of Ubiquitous tags or ubiquitous sensors and has ample growth potential since it can be applied to practically all areas.

 Topics of interest include, but are not limited to

- Building and application of Ubiquitous computing,

- Development methodology of Ubiquitous Sensor Network,

- Application of Ubiquitous tags or ubiquitous sensors,

- Performance or efficiency of Ubiquitous computing and sensors,  

- Ubiquitous system security and assurance,

- Wireless network security and assurance

bullet

Title: Optimizing structures of larger, finite systems (Organizer: Michael Springborg, University of Saarland, Germany , E-mail: mcs@springborg.pc.uni-sb.de) .

 

Description of the Symposium

Nanostructured materials are becoming of increasing importance and interest, first of all because of finite-size effects, i.e., the fact that the number of surface atoms relative to the total number of atoms is relatively large.

As for any other material, there is a clear correlation between structure and composition on the one side and properties on the other side. However, theoretical studies of those are made complicated by several issues: First, the systems of interest are finite, but large, making electronic-structure and/or total-energy calculations computationally heavy. Second, the systems may possess a relatively low symmetry, so that chemically identical atoms have to be treated differently, once again leading to an increase in the computational demands. Third, the structure space is enormous. And fourth, the number of metastable structures grow roughly  exponentially with the size of the structure.

The symposium is devoted to the last two issues. I.e., how do we determine the structure of the lowest total energy without biasing the calculations "too much", but also without having to searching too large parts of the structure space. Methods like basin hopping, genetic algorithms, molecular dynamics/simulated annealing, and aufbau/abbau methods are some, but not necessarily all, of those that can be included in the symposium.

Description of the topic of the session:

Computational Biology is a fast developing, emerging discipline in academic research and industrial applications. In this respect Computational Biology is a large, interdisciplinary field, combining knowledge from Computer Science, Medicine, Biology and Mathematics.

Some of the processes in the field of computational biology include protein structure prediction, processing of molecular sequences, classification of DNA and protein sequences, motif identification and many more. Due to the volume of biological data, computationally efficient techniques are sought to provide answers, exact or approximate, to the above problems.

This session (as two previous sessions in ICCMSE) aims to bring together computational biology researchers and present recent and ongoing work in the area. Topics include, but not limited to, the following: Sequence Storage and Processing, Protein databases, Modelling and Simulation of biological processes, Mining for biological data, Protein classification and clustering, Tools and applications.
