CYBER SECURITY & PRIVACY EU FORUM 2012

(CSP EU FORUM) 24th - 25th April, Berlin, Germany

Call For Poster Demonstrations

CSP EU Forum 2012 will host a demo/poster session during the first day of the event. This will provide an excellent opportunity for leading members of industrial and research communities to interact and view latest developments in on-going security research projects.

The typical purpose of  the Poster /Demonstrations is to cover  specific research in relation to security and privacy in more detail and allow for more interaction and raise profile around specific research being conducted

We invite contributions from security research sectors that will demonstrate innovative technologies, or researched works. Poster/Demonstrations   will be selected by the organising committee based on submissions

The topics suggested by the conference can be discussed in terms of concepts, state of the art, research, standards, implementations, running experiments, applications, and industrial case studies.

Proposals should be submitted to the Workshop Chair by  9th December 2011, please email: submissions@cspforum.eu

Important dates

  • Workshop proposal submissions due: 9th December  2011 - NOW CLOSED
  • Acceptance decision: 19th December 2011

Demonstrations Proposals (Format)

Submissions should clearly describe the functionality and detail the actual form of the demo ( ie what the participants will see and how they can interact with the demo, if possible).

Submissions should not exceed 2 pages in length. (Typically using 11pt font and single-column format) and should contain the following details

  • Basic submission information, (submitter names, affiliations, contact information, title of demo and short abstract.)
  • The technology demonstrated.
  • The elements of novelty involved in the demo.
  • Detail any interactive part of the demo ( if this aspect is possible)  .
  • The equipment brought by the demonstrator
  • Photographs, screen shots, or videos showing the demo setup are welcome. (not subject to the 2 page limit)

In general demos are expected to be self contained (i.e. no special technical support required to be provided by the event organisers).
