This conference will serve as a forum for the exchange of ideas in the areas of security systems and mechanisms especially in applications that handle large data volumes. Papers are solicited in all areas of security systems and algorithms including but not limited to: * security systems for imaging applications * security systems for real-time video applications * performance studies and comparisons for securing image data * watermarking and detection of fraudulent copying of intellectual property * metering schemes for intellectual property usage * audio and video encryption mechanisms * key management and security protocols for broadcast applications * payment systems for online multimedia applications * content protection mechanisms for online multimedia distribution. This conference is just one of nearly 30 conferences to be held at the EI'97 symposium. And EI'97 is one of 4 collocated symposia (Electronic Imaging, Biomedical Optics, Lasers and Applications, and Optoelectronics).
