CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
ERCIM STM WG 2015 Award for the
Best Ph.D. Thesis on Security and Trust Management
==================================================


*** Deadline approaching (July 7, 2015) ***


The European Research Consortium in Informatics and Mathematics
(ERCIM) has a technical WG on Security and Trust Management (STM) for
performing a series of activities, as research projects,
workshop/conference organization, dissemination of knowledge, for
increasing the European research and development capabilities on
security, trust, and privacy.

One of the main goals of the WG is to promote the scientific growth of
young researchers interested in the field of security and trust
management. ERCIM STM WG then decided to establish an award for the
best Ph.D. thesis in this area to increase the visibility of the young
researchers within the ERCIM scientific community as well as in the
scientific community in general.

The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* applied cryptography;

* data and application security;

* identity management;

* networked systems security;

* privacy, anonymity, and untraceability;

* rigorous semantics and computational models for security and trust;

* security, privacy, and trust in emerging computing paradigms;

* security and trust management architectures, mechanisms, and policies.

Applications for the award in 2015 are open to all Ph.D. holders that
defended their thesis during 2014 in any European
University. Applications consisting of the Ph.D. Thesis (in PDF
format), a short summary of the Thesis (mandatory in English), a
curriculum vitae (in PDF format), and letters of support from at least
two researchers, one of whom should be from an ERCIM STM WG
Institution, should be sent by July 7, 2015 to stm at unimi.it.  Please
use "ERCIM STM PhD Award 2015 - Application" as subject of the
message.

Theses will be evaluated by a Committee appointed from the European
research community. The theses will be judged on the basis of
scientific quality, originality, clarity of presentation, as well as
potential impact of the results. 

The ceremony for the award will be held during the 11th International
Workshop on Security and Trust Management (STM 2015) on September
21-22 2015, Vienna, Austria.
