PAPERS: Technical papers describing original unpublished research are
solicited. Submissions must not exceed 10 pages in IEEE conference
style, two-column format. Submissions must not be concurrently under
review by a conference, journal or any other venue that has
proceedings. All submissions will be refereed by the program
committee. Papers that have a student as the primary author or first
co-author will be considered for a best student paper award. Accepted
papers of particular merit will be considered for a special issue of
Springer International Journal of Information Security.
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: Authors should prepare a PostScript or PDF
version of their full paper. All submitted papers will be judged based
on their quality through double-blind reviewing, where the identities
of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. Authors' names must
not appear in the paper or in the PostScript or PDF file. Complete
paper submission instructions will be available at the conference
website. The paper submission deadline is February 21, 2005.
PANELS: Panels that examine innovative, controversial, or
otherwise provocative issues of interest are solicited. Panel
proposals should not exceed 3 pages, including biographical sketches
of the panelists. Potential panel organizers should submit proposals

organizers. Potential workshop organizers should submit proposals to
the Workshops Co-Chairs by January 22, 2005.
RESEARCH DEMOS: Informal proposals for research demos are
solicited. Proposals will be reviewed and selection will be made
based on the perceived value to the research community and interest
level for the conference attendees. Proposals should not exceed 3
pages and should include: the focus area, technologies involved,
specific equipment to be used, demo layout and space required. Please
submit proposals to the Research Demos Chair(s) by February 21,
2005. Travel grants, sponsored by NSF, are available to partially
support travel expenses for demo teams from US-based institutions.
Student Travel Grants: Student Travel Grants, sponsored by the
National Science Foundation, are available for graduate students
