Introduction

With the rapid development and the increasing complexity of computer and
communications systems and networks, traditional security technologies
and measures can not meet the demand for integrated and dynamic security
solutions. As a challenging and innovative research field, trusted computing
and communications target computer and communications systems and networks
that are available, secure, reliable, controllable, dependable, and so on.
In a word, they must be trustworthy. If we view the traditional security as
identity trust, the broader field of trusted computing and communications
also includes behavior trust of systems and networks. In fact, trusted
computing and communications have become essential components of various
distributed services, applications, and systems, including ad-hoc networks,
peer-to-peer networks, social networks, semantic webs, e-commence, e-government,
pervasive, ubiquitous, and cyber-physical systems.

The Sixth IEEE/IFIP International Symposium on Trusted Computing and Communications
(TrustCom-10) will be held in conjunction with "The Eighth IEEE/IFIP International
Conference on Embedded and Ubiquitous Computing (EUC-10)". It follows the success
of TrustCom-09 in Vancouver, Canada, TrustCom-08 in Zhangjiajie, China, SNDS-07
in Niagara Falls, Canada, SNDS-06 in Vienna, Austria, and SNDS-05 in Fukuoka, Japan.
It aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners in the world working on
trusted computing and communications, with regard to security, safety, privacy,
reliability, dependability, survivability, availability, and fault tolerance aspects
of computer systems and networks, and providing a forum to present and discuss
emerging ideas and trends in this highly challenging research field.

Scope and Interests

TrustCom-10 is an international forum for presenting and discussing emerging ideas
and trends in trusted computing and communications in computer systems and networks
from both the research community as well as the industry. Topics of interest include,
but are not limited to:

(1) Trust semantics, metrics, and models
(2) Trust inference, computation, and combination
(3) Trusted computing platform
(4) Trusted network computing
(5) Trusted operating systems
(6) Trusted software
(7) Trusted database
(8) Trusted services and applications
(9) Trusted communications
(10) Trust in e-commerce and e-government
(11) Trust in mobile and wireless networks
(12) Reliable and fault-tolerant computer systems/networks
(13) Survivable computer systems/networks
(14) Cryptography and security protocols
(15) Authentication in computer systems/networks
(16) Access control in computer systems/networks
(17) Key management in computer systems/networks
(18) Anonymity and privacy in computer systems/networks
(19) Trust in emerging applications
(20) Miscellaneous trust issues


Submission and Publication Information

The accepted papers from this symposium will be published by IEEE Computer Society
in IEEE EUC-10 proceedings (indexed by EI Compendex and ISTP). Papers should be
written in English conforming to the IEEE standard conference format(8.5" x 11",
Two-Column). Papers should be submitted through the paper submission system at the
symposium website. Manuscripts should be submitted through the paper submission
system at the symposium website. Each paper is limited to 6 pages (or 8 pages with
the over length charge). Distinguished papers, after further revisions, will be
published in two special issues: (1) Elsevier's Computer and Communications (COMCOM);
(2) IEICE¡¯s Transactions on Information and Systems, both to be indexed by SCI and EI.
The program committee will select one winner for the Best Paper Award for this symposium.
Submitting a paper to the symposium means that, if the paper is accepted, at least
one author should attend the symposium and present the paper. For no-show authors,
their papers will be removed from the digital library after the symposium and their
affiliations will be notified.
