The goal of this workshop is to generally promote work on security analysis of protocols and foster cooperative research combining the logical and complexity-based approaches. The workshop will include tutorials on the basics of each approach and will allow representatives from both communities to talk about their current work.
Topics
The workshop will be open for the public. If you'd like to give a presentation please send a title and abstract to the organizers as soon as possible. Also, we intend this to be a participatory and interactive meeting so we hope you will be able to contribute to the meeting even without giving an announced talk.

Creating high-performance, highly scalable, and secure VANET technologies presents an extraordinary challenge to the wireless research community. Yet, certain limitations commonly assumed in ad hoc networks are mitigated in VANET. For example, VANET may marshal relatively large computational resources. Ample and recharging power sources can be assumed. Mobility patterns are constrained by road paths and driving speed restrictions. VANET represents high resource/performance wireless technology. As such, VANET can use significantly different approaches than sensor networks. VANET applications will include on-board active safety systems leveraging vehicle-vehicle or roadside-vehicle networking. These systems may assist drivers in avoiding collisions. Non-safety applications include real-time traffic congestion and routing information, high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, and many others.
We invite papers from researchers on all aspects of vehicular ad hoc networks, such as new applications, networking protocols, security paradigms, network management technologies, power control, modulation, coding, channel modeling, etc. The session will bring together visionary researchers for an exciting exchange of ideas.

Coordination models, languages and middlewares, which advocate a distinct separation between the internal behaviour of the entities and their interaction, represent a promising approach. However, due to the openness of these systems, new critical aspects come into play, such as the need to deal with malicious components or with a hostile environment. Current research on network security issues (eg. secrecy, authentication, etc.) usually focuses on opening cryptographic point-to-point tunnels. Therefore, the proposed solutions in this area are not always exploitable to support the end-to-end secureinteraction between entities whose availability or location is not known beforehand.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Theoretical foundations, specification, analysis, case-studies, applications for authentication coordination models integrity web service technology privacy mobile ad-hoc networks confidentiality agent-based infrastructures access control -in- peer-to-peer systems denial of service global computing service availability context-aware computing safety aspects component-based systems fault tolerance ubiquitous/pervasive computingFor more information, please see: http://cs.unibo.it/secco04
In recent years, interest has increased in the field of security of parallel and distributed systems, which include the control mechanisms, mobile code security, denial-of-service attacks, trust management, modeling of information flow and its application to confidentiality policies, system composition, and covert channel analysis. We will focus our program on issues related to important properties of system security, such as measurability, sustainability, affordability, and usability in parallel and distributed systems.
