Conference Call for paper


ACM WiSec is the leading ACM and SIGSAC conference dedicated to all aspects of security andprivacy in wireless and mobile networks and their applications. In addition to the traditional ACMWiSec topics of physical, link, and network layer security, we welcome papers focusing on theincreasingly diverse range of mobile or wireless applications such as Internet of Things, andCyber-Physical Systems, as well as the security and privacy of mobile software platforms, usablesecurity and privacy, biometrics, and cryptography. The conference welcomes both theoretical as wellas systems contributions.Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:■ Security protocols for wireless networking■ Security & privacy for smart devices (e.g., smartphones)■ Security of mobile applications for smartphones and wearables■ Wireless and mobile privacy and anonymity■ Secure localization and location privacy■ Cellular network fraud and security■ Jamming attacks and defenses■ Key management (agreement or distribution) for wireless or mobile systems■ Theoretical and formal approaches for wireless and mobile security■ Cryptographic primitives for wireless and mobile security■ NFC and smart payment applications■ Security and privacy for mobile sensing systems■ Wireless or mobile security for Cyber-Physical Systems (e.g, healthcare, smart grid, or IoT applications)■ Vehicular networks security (e.g., drones, automotive, avionics, autonomous driving)■ Physical tracking security and privacy■ Usable mobile security and privacy■ Economics of mobile security and privacy■ Mobile malware and platform security■ Security for cognitive radio and dynamic spectrum access systemsThe proceedings of ACM WiSec, sponsored by SIGSAC, will be published by the ACM.Full and short papersFull paper submissions to ACM WiSec 2019 can be up to 10 pages in the ACM conference styleexcluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices, and up to 12 pages in total. ACM WiSec alsoencourages the submission of short papers with a length of up to 6 pages, which describe maturework of a more succinct nature. All papers must be thoroughly anonymized for double-blind reviewing.Detailed submission instructions will appear on the conference website.Opinion papersACM WiSec 2019 invites papers (ACM conference style, up to 3 pages excluding references) thatpresent personal perspectives on all aspects of security and privacy in wireless and mobile networks.Opinion papers could also criticize previous research or research directions, as well as highlightpossible promising research directions. The opinions expressed in these papers are expected to beanyway corroborated by theoretical foundations, experiments, or experiences. Like the regularpapers, the opinion papers will be reviewed by the WiSec Technical Program Committee. Theselected opinion papers will be a part of the WiSec technical program and will be published in theconference proceedings. Opinion papers should be submitted using the same submission procedureadopted for the full papers. The title of these papers must have the prefix “Opinion:”.Replicability labelThe goal of the replicability label is to support replicability in mobile and wireless security experimentalresearch process and to increase the impact of mobile and wireless research, enable dissemination ofresearch results, sharing of code and experiments setups, and to enable the research community tobuild on prior experimental results. WiSec will follow the ACM policy on artifact review andbadging. Towards this goal, the WiSec replicability label recognizes papers whose results werereplicated by an independent group of researchers. Authors of accepted papers can participate in thisvoluntary process by submitting their experiments according to the replicability evaluation instructions.Authors are encouraged to plan ahead when running their experiments to minimize the overhead ofapplying for this label.Posters and DemosWiSec also solicits submission of posters and demos. The instructions to submit posters/demos willbe made available later on WiSec 2019 website.Double submissionsIt is a policy of the ACM to disallow double submissions, where the same (or substantially similar)paper is concurrently submitted to multiple conferences/journals. Any double submissions detectedwill be immediately rejected from all conferences/journals involved.
