4th Workshop on Security in highly connected IT systems(SHCIS 2017)
19-22 June 2017, Neuchatel, Switzerland
Call for Papers:
Modern society over the course of the past two decades developed an increasing dependency on their infrastructures in general, and on the availability and correct functionality of their IT systems in particular. Nowadays, all kinds of IT systems, from industrial control systems to nationwide sensor networks, from high-traffic business platforms to e-health applications, are connected to the Internet and thus directly connected to each other. Such highly connected IT systems exhibit their very own peculiarities and need to be studied accordingly.
In this context, SHCIS’17 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners active in the field of highly connected IT systems, with a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary aspects. The focus of the workshop is on diffusion of early and on-going work, with large room being devoted to presentations of PhD students active in this field, as well as of large scale national and international research projects. The workshop is the 4th event after previous SHCIS workshops in 2014 (co-located with TrustBus), 2015 (co-located with ESORICS) and 2016 (Dagstuhl workshop). It is organized by the Bavarian Research Alliance FORSEC
