1st Workshop on "Information
Security Theory and Practices
(WISTP'07): Smart Cards, Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing Systems"
The 1st Workshop
on Information Security Theory and Practices (WISTP'07): Smart
Cards, Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing Systems, was held between
May 9-11, 2007 in Heraklion, Crete, Greece. The workshop was co-organized
by: FORTH-ICS, Greece; ISG-SCC, Royal Holloway University of London,
UK; and XLIM, University of Limoges, France. With the rapid technological development of information technologies, computer systems and especially embedded systems are becoming more mobile and ubiquitous, increasingly interfacing with the physical world. Ensuring the security of these complex and yet, resource constraint systems has emerged as one of the most pressing challenges. The aim of this first workshop was to bring together researchers and practitioners in related areas and to encourage interchange and cooperation between the research community and the industrial/consumer community. The workshop consisted of technical paper presentations, one special session for student papers, and five invited talks. To contribute to the structuring of the community, a networking meeting to discuss EU FP7 projects proposals took place the third day of the event.
