CALL FOR PAPER
2006 WORKSHOP EDITION CANCELED

Constraint Satisfaction and Programming is emerging as an effective practical approach for solving large complex problems. It offers a significant body of successful techniques for verifying system properties. Recently, researchers have begun using advances in constraint programming and solving to solve security problems, with success. This workshop seeks to act as a catalyst for this emerging area by exploring the challenges and the potential that these techniques may offer when applied to security problems.

The use of Constraint Satisfaction and Programming to address security problems is recent, and it has already produced a number of novel solutions and insights. For example, constraints have been successfully used in the the analysis of security protocols, the development of access control models and mechanisms, firewall configuration and secure system configuration in general.

Submissions SUBMISSIONS  

The workshop aim is to provide a forum where researchers currently working in the area of security and constraints can discuss their most recent ideas and developments and think together about the most promising new directions. Therefore we encourage the presentation of work in progress or on specialized aspects of the area. Papers that bridge the gap between theory and practice are especially welcome.

Prospective attendees can submit a paper, which can be up to 15 pages in length. We encourage authors to submit papers electronically in postscript or pdf format. Papers should be formatted using the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) style. Please send your submissions by email to stefano.bistarelli@iit.cnr.it using the subject line "cpsec-2006 Workshop Submission".
