The vision of ubiquitous computing has generated a lot of interest in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. However, besides their potential advantages, these new generations of networks also raise some challenging problems with respect to security and privacy. The aim of this workshop is to bring together the network security, cryptography, and wireless networking communities in order to discuss these problems and to propose new solutions. The second ESAS workshop seeks submissions that present original research on all aspects of security and privacy in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. Submission of papers based on work-in-progress is encouraged. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:

  • Privacy and anonymity
  • Prevention of traffic analysis
  • Location privacy
  • Secure positioning and localization
  • Secure MAC protocols
  • Secure topology control
  • Secure routing
  • Secure in-network processing
  • Secure context aware computing
  • Cooperation and fairness
  • Charging and rewarding
  • Key management
  • Trust establishment
  • Embedded security
  • Cryptography for resource constrained applications
  • Distributed intrusion detection

Instructions for Authors

Authors are invited to submit original papers. All submissions will be refereed. Submissions must not substantially duplicate work that any of the authors have published elsewhere or have submitted in parallel. The submissions must not exceed 10 pages (excluding the title page, bibliography and appendices) nor 12 pages overall. The final version should not exceed 15 pages. The preferred submission format is PDF or PostScript. We recommend that you generate the PDF or PS file using LaTeX and the LNCS style available at www.springer.de/comp/lncs. Further information on how to submit papers will be available here.

Workshop Proceedings

The Proceedings will be published by Springer after the Workshop in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) Series (www.springer.de/comp/lncs/). Notice that in order to be included in the proceedings, the authors of an accepted paper must guarantee to present their contribution at the ESAS workshop.
