Call for Workshop Proposals 3rd International Conference on Network and System Security (NSS 2009) October 19-21, 2009, Gold Coast, Australia In technical co-sponsorship with the IEEE and the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Scalable Computing http://nss.cqu.edu.au ------------------------- NSS 2009 will hold multiple workshops on from 19 October to 21 October 2009, in Gold Coast, Australia, co-located with the main conference. See http://nss.cqu.edu.au. We invite you to submit workshop proposals on any topic related to Network and System Security before 1 March 2009 to the Workshop Chair Dr. Zesheng Chen ([log in to unmask]). The purpose of these workshops is to offer researchers a good opportunity to present their work in a more focused way than the conference itself and to obtain feedback from an interested community. Workshop organizers are responsible for establishing a program committee, collecting and evaluating submissions, notifying authors of acceptance or rejection in due time, ensuring a transparent and fair selection process, organizing selected papers into sessions, and assigning session chairs. Proposals on emerging topics guaranteed to generate significant interest in the community will be selected. A workshop proposal should contain at least: * A draft call for papers * The workshop deadlines * Names and affiliations of organizers and tentative composition of the committees * Expected numbers of submissions and accepted papers * Prior history of this workshop, if any. Please include: Number of submissions Number of accepted papers Attendee count Important workshop dates Latest workshop proposals submission date 1 March 2009 Notification of Acceptance within 2 weeks after proposal submission Typical workshop dates Paper submissions due April 2009 Paper acceptance notifications June 2009 Camera-ready due July 2009 Workshops should establish own paper submission system. Each paper selected for inclusion in the proceedings must be registered for NSS 2009 at the full registration rate. Each paper must be presented in person by the author, or one of the authors. Proceedings of the NSS 2009 workshops will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press, and will be made available to all conference registrants on site. All workshop papers will also be electronically available through IEEE Xplore Digital Database, and professionally indexed through INSPEC and EI Index. Please be advised to organize your workshop as early as possible to ensure your effort turn out to be fruitful.
