===============================================================
CALL FOR PAPERS CSS 2014
The 6th International Symposium on Cyberspace Safety and Security
August 20-22, 2014, Paris, France
http://www.computational-science.org/CSS2014/
===============================================================
*IMPORTANT DATES*
Paper submission: 28 April, 2014 -> Extended to 12 May, 2014
Notification of acceptance: 23 June, 2014
Camera-Ready due: 15 July, 2014

*SCOPE*
A large fraction of the population in the world now spends a great deal of 
time in cyberspace. Cyberspace has become a critical infrastructure that 
is embedded in almost all other critical infrastructures and enables every 
movement of human society. It is thus very much in the public interest to 
have a safe and secure cyberspace. 
In the past several years, there has been large number of attacks in 
cyberspace, such as attacks on the Internet, attacks on embedded/real-time 
computing and control systems, and attacks on dedicated computing 
facilities. Many research efforts have been made to achieve cyberspace 
safety and security, such as blocking and limiting the impact of 
compromise, enabling accountability, promoting deployment of defense 
systems, and deterring potential attackers and penalizing attackers. 
In this context, we focus our program on Cyberspace Safety and Security, 
such as authentication, access control, availability, integrity, privacy, 
confidentiality, dependability and sustainability issues of cyberspace. 
The aim of this symposium is to provide a leading edge forum to foster 
interaction between researchers and developers with the cyberspace safety 
and security communities, and to give attendees an opportunity to network 
with experts in this area. The symposium will be a highly focused, 
professional, high quality, and social event.

Distinguished papers presented at the conference, after further revision, 
will be recommended for possible publication in special issues of the SCI 
Indexed Journals.
