Web and Pervasive Environments (WPE) are emerging rapidly as an exciting
new paradigm including ubiquitous, web, grid, ubiquitous and peer-to-peer
computing to provide computing and communication services any time and
anywhere. In order to realize their advantages, it requires the security services
and applications to be suitable for WPE.
If they are realized, a user will be able to remotely access and control all
information and web appliances in the workplace as well as at home and office,
easily and conveniently use various services to enable working at home, remote
education, remote diagnosis, virtual shopping, network gaming, and high quality
VOD with no limitations on space and time.
WPS 2008 is a successor of the 1st International Workshop on Application and
Security service in Web and pervAsive eNvirionments (ASWAN07, HuangShan, China, June, 2007).
WPS2008 workshop is intended to foster the dissemination of state-of-the-art
research in the area of secure WPE including security models, security systems,
application services and novel security applications associated with its
utilization. Also, it offers the possibility to discuss protocols and protocol
characteristics with researchers and users that are using them for solving their
scientific problems. We plan to publish high quality papers, which cover the
various web and security issues and practical applications in WPE.
Topics: Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Security web-based collaboration applications and services
* Model for secure web services
* Wireless sensor networks / RFID application and security for WPE
* Intelligent multimedia security services for WPE
* Key management and authentication in WPE
* Network security issues and protocols in WPE
* Access control in WPE
* Privacy protection in WPE
* Cryptographic algorithms for WPE
* Data privacy and trustiness for WPE
* Forensics issues for WPE
* Privacy and anonymity for WPE
* Security in P2P networks and Grid computing in WPE
* Trust management in WPE
* Commercial and industrial applications for WPE
