CFP: IEEE FiCloud 2018
by M. Younas 20 Mar '18

20 Mar '18

----------------------Call for Papers ------------------- The IEEE 6th International Conference on Future Internet of Things and Cloud (FiCloud 2018) 6-8 August 2018, Barcelona, Spain http://www.ficloud.org/2018/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Internet of Things (IoT) vision is to provide a dynamic and global network infrastructure which is characterized by intelligent and self configuring capabilities. IoT is considered as an integral part of the future Internet. It is based on interoperable communication protocols in order to enable the interaction and integration of virtual as well as physical Things such as computers, smart devices, sensors, cars, refrigerators, food packages, medicines, etc. Things can be seamlessly integrated into the information network and interaction can be made through the provision of intelligent interfaces. In not so distant future, IoT will be forcing its way into every aspect of our lives and technologies including smart homes, smart cities, environment and nature, green energy, food, medicine, automotive, aerospace and aviation, telecommunication, and so on. IoT is generally characterized by real world and small Things, limited capacity, constrained devices and the consequential issues such as less reliability, security and privacy. Cloud computing on the other hand deals mainly with virtual world and has unlimited capabilities in terms of storage and processing power. Thus cloud and IoT are the main complementary aspects of the future Internet. IoT can benefit from the unlimited capabilities and resources of cloud computing. Similarly, cloud can benefit from IoT by extending its scope to deal with real world things in a more distributed and dynamic manner. The theme of this conference is to promote the state of the art in scientific and practical research of the IoT and cloud computing. It provides a forum for bringing together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and public sector in an effort to present their research work and share research and development ideas in the area of IoT and cloud computing. CONFERENCE TRACKS: - Cloud Models - SaaS, IaaS, PaaS - Security, Privacy and Trust - Software Systems, Models and Architectures - Mobile Cloud Services - Data and Knowledge Management - Context-awareness and Location-awareness - Software-defined Networking - Performance Evaluation and Modelling - Networking and Communication Protocols - IoT Services and Applications - Smart Environment - Enterprise and Business Models - Energy Efficiency - Federation and Virtualization - Fog and Edge Computing - Industry Track - General Track Paper submission and Publication: Authors are requested to submit papers reporting original research results and experience. The page limit for full papers is 8 pages and for short papers is 6 pages. Papers should be prepared using IEEE two-column template. See instructions on the conference website (http://www.ficloud.org/2018/). All papers accepted for this conference will be published in the conference proceedings by the IEEE Computer Society Conference Publishing Service (CPS). The proceedings will be submitted to the IEEE-Xplore and the IEEE Computer Society (CSDL) digital libraries.

[Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] * Machine Learning for Computer and Cyber Security: Principles, Algorithms, and Practices* *CALL FOR CHAPTER PROPOSALS* *Full paper Submission Deadline: March 31, 2018 (Final)* *“Machine Learning for Computer and Cyber Security: Principles, Algorithms, and Practices”* * Website: **https://sites.google.com/site/mlccs2018cfc/home <https://sites.google.com/site/mlccs2018cfc/home>* * Submission Link: **https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mlccs2018 <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mlccs2018>* *Introduction:* Computer security is the use of technology, policies, and education to assure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data during its storage, processing, and transmission. To secure data, we pursue three activities: prevention, detection, and recovery. This book will be about the use of machine learning and data mining methods to secure data, and such methods are best suited for detection. Detection is simply the process of identifying something’s true characteristic. For example, we might want to detect if a program contains malicious logic. Informally, a detector is a program that reports positively when it detects the characteristic of interest; otherwise, it reports negatively or nothing at all. There are two ways to build a detector: We can build or program a detector ourselves, or we can let software build a detector from data. To build a detector ourselves, it is not enough to know what we want to detect, for we must also know how to detect what we want. The complexity of today’s networked computers makes this a daunting task in all but the simplest cases. Researchers may debate where the exact point lies, but starting somewhere on this spectrum leading to the ideal are methods of machine learning. This book will use a wealth of examples and illustrations to effectively demonstrate the principles, algorithm, challenges and applications of machine learning and data mining for Computer and Cyber Security. This comprehensive book will be full of the valuable insight into machine learning and data mining for computer and cyber security and will touch every corner of the topic of computer and cyber security and will cover most of important security aspects and current trends that are missed in other books. In addition, it will be an excellent book to teach a course on Machine learning and data mining for Computer and security. The material will prepare the students for exercising better protection and defense in terms of understanding the motivation of the attackers and how to deal with and mitigate the situation in a better manner. This book will be an invaluable resource for students at all levels interested in machine learning and data mining for computer and cyber security. It will also serve as an excellent reference in cyber security professionals in this fast-evolving and critical field. The contents of this book will be very refreshing, informative, and easy to follow for students ranging from novice to advanced levels. It will contain an impressive collection of up-to-date computer and cyber security issues, analysis and machine learning and data mining based solutions. *Objective of the Book:* The main objective of the book is to give an of principles, algorithm and applications of machine learning based Computer and Cyber security as well as the future research directions overview to students, researchers, subject matter experts, and practitioners. This comprehensive book will be full of the valuable insight into computer and cyber security and will touch every corner of the topic of machine learning for computer and cyber security and will covers most of important security aspects and current trends that are missed in other books The book will help to identify the interesting and exciting areas of future research to apply these techniques. In addition, it will be an excellent book to teach a course on machine learning for computer and cyber security. The material will prepare the students for exercising better protection in terms of understanding the motivation of the attackers and how to deal with and mitigate the situation in a better manner using machine learning based approaches. The chapter proposals will be selected in the following categories to make a balance of theory, future research directions and practical/use case i.e. Original research article, Case studies, and Review articles in the aforementioned domain. *Target Audience:* The target audience of this book will be composed of professionals, researchers, faculty members, scientists, graduate students, research scholars and software developers who are seeking to carry out research and develop software in the field of information and cyber security using Machine learning based approaches.
