All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, to be published by Springer under the auspices of the IFIP WG 11.11 on Trust Management. Submissions must be in English and conform to the “IFIP Series” format. See http://springer.com/series/6102 for templates (MS Word or Latex only). Papers should not exceed 16 pages. Submission will be through the IFIPTM 2009 website.

Previous iTrust and IFIPTM conferences have become popular focal points for co-located workshops and technical tutorials on topics related to trust, security and privacy. Continuing this trend, IFIPTM 2009, to be held at Purdue University, USA, plans to feature a number of co-located workshops and tutorials. Proposals for workshops and tutorials are hereby invited and should be submitted to Workshop and Tutorial Chairs (Anupam Datta and Yuko Murayama) and Program Chairs (Elena Ferrari and Ninghui Li).

Call for Workshops and Tutorials

In 2007, the iTrust and PST conferences came together as the first annual meeting and conference of the newly formed IFIP Working Group on Trust Management (IFIP WG 11.11). IFIPTM 2007 and 2009 provided global platforms for reporting research, development, policy and practice in the interdependent areas of Trust, Security, and Privacy. IFIPTM 2009 will continue to provide a forum for presenting research results and innovative ideas in these areas.

Call for Workshops

The Program Committee solicits proposals for the Workshop Program for IFIPTM 2009.

Members from all areas of Privacy, Security and Trust Management are invited to submit Workshop proposals. Workshops will last half-a-day or one day and will be held on June 15th, before the start of the main technical program.

IFIPTM 2009 workshops should stimulate and facilitate an atmosphere of active and constructive exchange on current issues of interest. They should allow members of the community to compare and discuss approaches, methods, and concepts about specific topics addressed by the IFIPTM 2009 conference. It is expected that the conference will contain tracks on Trust Management, Privacy and Policy, Security, Public Safety and National Security, and Mobile and Emerging Technologies.
