WCAN 05 call for paper - deadline extended to MAY 1st

(apologies if the following is undesired or was already received)

CALL FOR PAPERS: 1st Workshop on Cryptography over Ad hoc Networks
(WCAN 05)
(A Satellite Workshop of Wirelesscom 05, http://sa1.sice.umkc.edu/wc05)
Workshop Dates: June 15-16
Workshop Location: Sheraton Maui Resort, Kaanapali Beach, Maui, Hawaii,
http://www.sheraton-maui.com

Wireless ad hoc networks are today receiving a lot of attention for
militar, commercial and civilian applications, thus raising several
challenging security, privacy and anonimity research questions.
The security research community has mainly focused on securing routing
and is only recently widening its scope of analysis to other security areas. 
The cryptography research community has mainly focused on standard networks, 
like the Internet; however, cryptographic protocols for the Internet face 
serious challenges to be adapted to the ad-hoc, partial-connectivity, mobile, 
and infrastructureless nature of ad-hoc networks. The aim of this workshop is 
to help bridging this gap, towards a more comprehensive investigation of 
security and cryptographic tools, analysis and modeling methodologies over 
(mobile) ad hoc networks, by bringing together the cryptography, network 
security, and wireless networking communities. We seek submissions containing 
original research on all aspects of cryptology in wireless ad hoc networks. 
Short surveys of sub-areas are also encouraged. Main topics of interest 
include, but are not limited to the following:

Ad Hoc Networks and Resources Modeling
Secure Routing
Security Bootstrapping
Trust Establishment
Distributed Public-Key Infrastructures
Key Agreement, Management and (Pre)Distribution over Ad Hoc Networks
Resource-Constrained Cryptography over Ad Hoc Networks
Threshold Cryptography over Ad Hoc Networks
Identity-Based Cryptography over Ad Hoc Networks
Policy-Based Cryptography over Ad Hoc Networks
Secure Multi-Party Protocols over Ad Hoc Networks
Security in Distributed Algorithms and Protocols

Instructions for Authors:
Authors are invited to submit surveys or original papers, possibly about work 
in progress, that deal with both cryptology and ad hoc networks. All 
submissions will be refereed and must not substantially duplicate work that any 
of the authors have published elsewhere or have submitted in parallel. The 
submissions, preferably in PDF or PS format, must not exceed 6 pages (excluding 
appendices) nor 12 pages overall. In order to submit a paper, please send your 
paper as an attachment of an ascii e-mail to 
[email-masked], indicating title of paper, names and 
affiliations of authors, and full contact information (affiliation, e-mail and 
phone number) of the contact author. The camera-ready version should not exceed 
6 pages in standard double-column IEEE format.

Workshop Proceedings:
to be published by IEEE. More details will be provided to the authors.
