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 third 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
  • Attack resistant data aggregation
  • Cooperation and fairness
  • Key management
  • Trust establishment
  • Embedded security
  • Cryptography for resource constrained applications
  • Distributed intrusion detection

Instructions for Authors

Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract of their original work. Maximum length for submissions is 8 pages. The preferred submission format is PDF or PostScript. Submissions must not substantially duplicate work that any of the authors have published elsewhere or have submitted in parallel. All submissions will be refereed. Accepted papers should be presented at the workshop, in which case they will appear in the post-workshop proceedings. The final camera ready version should be sent in after the workshop and it must not exceed 15 pages. Further information on how to submit papers will be available here.

Workshop Proceedings

As in previous years, the proceedings will be published by Springer after the workshop in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) Series (www.springer.de/comp/lncs/). Note that in order to be included in the proceedings, an accepted paper must be presented at the workshop. In addition, when preparing the final manuscript, the authors should take into account the reviewers' comments and the comments received at the workshop.
