In Conjunction with
The 10th IEEE International Conference on
Trust, Security and Privacy in Computing and Communications
(IEEE TrustCom 2011)
http://trust.csu.edu.cn/conference/trustcom2011/

Venue & Dates: Changsha, China, November 16-18, 2011


Introduction

Computers are now available anytime, anywhere, by different means,
and distributed unobtrusively throughout everyday environments
in which physical objects/artifacts embedded with invisible computers
are sensible and networked locally and globally. Such "any" computers
open tremendous opportunities to provide numerous novel
services/applications in both real world and cyber spaces, and exist
ubiquitously in our daily life, working, learning, traveling,
entertainment, medicine, etc. Although it is yet unclear what exactly
the real-cyber integrated worlds would be, there is no doubt that they must
be safe.

The 3rd IEEE International Symposium on UbiSafe Computing (UbiSafe-11)
will be held in conjunction with "The 10th IEEE International Conference
on Trust, Security and Privacy in Computing and Communications (IEEE
TrustCom-11)".
It follows the success of UbiSafe-09 in Chengdu, China. It aims at bringing
together
researchers and practitioners in the world working on theories and
technologies for
ubiquitous artifacts to function safely for different purposes; for
ubiquitous
systems to work safely in various situations; and for ubiquitous
environments to
behave safely with all people.


Scope and Interests

IEEE UbiSafe-11 is an international symposium for presenting and discussing
emerging
ideas and trends in aspects of UbiSafe computing, but are not limited to:

(1) Fundamentals

UbiSafe concepts, definitions, basic elements, models, frameworks and
methodologies,
human-centric paradigms,
multi-disciplinary/inter-disciplinary/trans-disciplinary
approaches, semantics, ontologies, UbiSafe requirements and formal
specifications
and validations, information assurance, etc.

(2) Technologies

Security and privacy protection, reliability and fault tolerance, risk
analysis,
uncertainty and exception handling, socially intelligent agents,
intuitive/natural
user interface, interaction design, context-awareness, intelligent
computing,
service-oriented computing, hardware, software, middleware, etc.

(3) Systems

Embedded systems, wearable systems, augmented systems, context-based
systems,
communication systems, safety-critical systems, survivable systems,
persistent
systems, autonomous/autonomic systems, proactive systems, network
infrastructure,
sensor networks, etc.

(4) Applications

Smart objects, smart environments, information appliance and artifacts,
everyday gadgets, robots, safety care, healthcare, medical care and
services,
working, learning, traveling, entertainment, case studies, etc.

(5) Measures and Assessments

UbiSafe attributes and measures for safety, trust, faith, amenity, easiness,

comfort, satisfaction and worry, UbiSafe levels and relations, UbiSafe
quality,
assessment criteria and authority, subjective and objective assessment
standards,
evaluation methodologies, testing, measuring and monitoring tools, etc.

(6) Human Factors and Social Issues

Human and social aspects of UbiSafe, UbiSafe sources and factors, social
rules,
regulations and laws, human factors, human behavior analysis, modeling of
human
feelings, traditional and cultural issues, ethical issues, etc.


Submission and Publication Information

The accepted papers from this symposium will be published by IEEE Computer
Society
in IEEE TrustCom-11 conference proceedings (indexed by EI Compendex and
ISTP).
Papers should be written in English conforming to the IEEE conference
proceedings
format (8.5" x 11", Two-Column). Papers should be submitted through the
paper
submission system at the symposium website. Each paper is limited to 6 pages

(or 10 pages with the over length charge). Distinguished papers, after
further
revisions, will be invited for possible publication in special issues of
prestige
international journals indexed by SCI and EI (pending). Submitting a paper
to
the symposium means that, if the paper is accepted, at least one author
should
attend the symposium and present the paper. For no-show authors, their
papers
will be removed from the digital library after the symposium and their
affiliations
will be notified.


Important Dates

(1) Paper submission due:            June 30, 2011
(2) Notification of decision:        August 30, 2011
(3) Camera-ready papers due:         September 30, 2011
