Call for Papers
FC'07: Financial Cryptography and Data Security
http://fc07.ifca.ai/
Eleventh International Conference
February 12-15, 2007
Lowlands, Scarborough, Trinidad and Tobago
Submissions Due Date: October 9, 2006, 11:59pm, EDT (UTC-4)
Program Chair: Sven Dietrich (Carnegie Mellon University)
General Chair: Rafael Hirschfeld (Unipay)
At its 11th year edition, Financial Cryptography and Data Security (FC'07)
is a well established and major international forum for research, advanced
development, education, exploration, and debate regarding security in the
context of finance and commerce. We will continue last year's augmentation
of the conference title and expansion of our scope to cover all aspects of
securing transactions and systems. These aspects include a range of
technical areas such as: cryptography, payment systems, secure transaction
architectures, software systems and tools, fraud prevention, secure IT
infrastructure, and analysis methodologies. Our focus will also encompass
financial, legal, business, and policy aspects. Material both on
theoretical (fundamental) aspects of securing systems,and on secure
applications and real-world deployments will be considered.
The conference goal is to bring together top cryptographers, data-security
specialists, and computer scientists with economists, bankers,
implementers, and policy makers. Intimate and colorful by tradition, the
FC'07 program will feature invited talks, academic presentations,
technical demonstrations, and panel discussions.
This conference is organized annually by the International Financial
Cryptography Association (IFCA).
Original papers, surveys, and presentations on all aspects of financial
and commerce security are invited. Submissions must have a strong and
visible bearing on financial and commerce security issues, but can be
interdisciplinary in nature and need not be exclusively concerned with
cryptography or security. Possible topics for submission to the various
sessions include, but are not limited to:
Anonymity and Privacy
Auctions
Audit and Auditability
Authentication and Identification, including Biometrics
Certification and Authorization
Commercial Cryptographic Applications
Commercial Transactions and Contracts
Digital Cash and Payment Systems
Digital Incentive and Loyalty Systems
Digital Rights Management
Financial Regulation and Reporting
Fraud Detection
Game Theoretic Approaches to Security
Identity Theft, Phishing and Social Engineering
Infrastructure Design
Legal and Regulatory Issues
Microfinance and Micropayments
Monitoring, Management and Operations
Reputation Systems
RFID-Based and Contactless Payment Systems
Risk Assessment and Management
Secure Banking and Financial Web Services
Securing Emerging Computational Paradigms
Security and Risk Perceptions and Judgments
Security Economics
Smart Cards and Secure Tokens
Trust Management
Trustability and Trustworthiness
Underground-Market Economics
Virtual Economies
Voting system security
For those interested, last year's proceedings are available from Springer.
Submission Instructions
Submission Categories
FC'07 is inviting submissions in four categories: (1) research papers, (2)
systems and applications presentations, (3) panel sessions, (4) surveys.
For all accepted submissions, at least one author must attend the
conference and present the work.
Research Papers
Research papers should describe novel scientific contributions to the
field, and they will be subject to rigorous peer review. Accepted
submissions will be included in the conference proceedings to be published
in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series
after the conference, so the submissions must be formatted in the standard
LNCS format (15 page limit).
Systems and Application Presentations
Submissions in this category should describe novel or successful systems
with an emphasis on secure digital commerce applications. Presentations
may concern commercial systems, academic prototypes, or open-source
projects for any of the topics listed above. Where appropriate, software
or hardware demonstrations are encouraged as part of the presentations in
these sessions. Submissions in this category should consist of a short
summary of the work (1-6 pages in length) to be reviewed by the Program
Committee, along with a short biography of the presenters. Accepted
submissions will be presented at the conference (25 minutes per
presentation), and a one-page abstract will be published in the conference
proceedings.
Panel Sessions
Proposals for panel sessions are also solicited, and should include a
brief description of the panel as well as prospective participants.
Accepted panel sessions will be presented at the conference, and each
participant will contribute a one-page abstract to be published in the
conference proceedings.
Surveys
A limited number of surveys presentations may also be included in the
program. We encourage submissions that summarize the current state of the
art on any well-defined subset of the above listed submission topics. A
limited description of visions on future directions of research in these
topics would also be appreciated. Survey submissions can be significantly
shorter than research paper submissions.
Preparation Instructions
Submissions to the research papers, systems/application presentation
categories, and surveys must be received by the due date. Papers must be
formatted in standard PostScript or PDF format. Submissions in other
formats will be rejected. All papers must be submitted electronically
according to the instructions and forms found on this web site and at the
submission site.
Authors should provide names and affiliations at submission time, and have
the option of including or not names and affiliations in their submitted
papers, that must include on their first page the title of the paper, a
brief abstract, and a list of topical keywords. Accepted submissions will
be included in the conference proceedings to be published in the
Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series after the
conference, so the submissions must be formatted in the standard LNCS
format (15 page limit). Authors of accepted submissions will be required
to complete and sign an IFCA copyright form. A pre-proceedings volume
containing preliminary versions of the papers will be distributed at the
conference.
Questions about all conference submissions should be directed to the
Program Chair at fc07chair@cert.org.
Paper Submission
Authors should only submit work that does not substantially overlap with
work that is currently submitted or has been accepted for publication to a
conference with proceedings or a journal.
To submit your paper, use our online submission service..
The Rump Session
FC'07 will also include the popular "rump session" held on one of the
evenings in an informal, social atmosphere. The rump session is a program
of short (5-7 minute), informal presentations on works in progress,
off-the-cuff ideas, and any other matters pertinent to the conference. Any
conference attendee is welcome to submit a presentation to the Rump
Session Chair (to be announced). This submission should consist of a talk
title, the name of the presenter, and, if desired, a very brief abstract.
Submissions may be sent via e-mail, or submitted in person through the
Monday of the conference.
Associated Workshop
There will be a Usability Workshop held in conjunction with FC 2007.
