[VOIPSEC] IPTComm 2007

[Dorgham Sisalem]

Hello,

  I would like to draw you attention to the IP Telecommunication
  conference. This will have a special session on VoIP security that I
  guess is of interest to a lot of the readers on this list.

                       IPTComm 2007
PRINCIPLES, SYSTEMS AND APPLICATIONS OF IP TELECOMMUNICATIONS

                    19, 20 July 2007
                    Columbia University
                    NY, USA

                    http://iptcomm.org

While standards and products now support PSTN-equivalent
services for voice, video and text over IP, there are significant
difficulties in deploying large-scale, reliable and secure IP
telecommunication systems.
Services that go beyond basic call features remain hard to
develop and deploy.

The aim of the IPTComm conference is to serve as a platform for
researchers from academia and research labs, industry and
government to share their ideas, views, results and experiences in the
field of IP-based telecommunication. IPTComm will include
presentations of theoretical and experimental achievements,
innovative security systems, prototyping efforts,
case studies, and advancements in
technology directly affecting IP-based telecommunication in
general and VoIP and IMS services in particular.

We invite authors to submit papers in the following and
related areas:

VoIP and IMS Security:

*       Denial of Service detection and prevention
*       Security models of voice, video and text over IP services
*       Detection and prevention of SPIT, Phreaking, Vishing
*       Fraud detection and prevention
*       Prevention and mitigation of security attacks
*       End-to-end security
*       Inter-provider trust and verification schemes

Qos and billing:

*       QoS for voice and video
*       Traffic and QoS measurement of VoIP and IMS traffic
*       Billing, AAA
*       Management of VoIP infrastructure and services
*       VoIP and IMS system performance, reliability and scalability

Convergent Services:

*       VoIP emergency services
*       Service architectures (e.g. Parlay, SIP Servlets, IMS)
*       Service creation environments and languages
*       Presence and event notification
*       Interactive collaboration beyond voice, video and text
*       Feature interaction


The IPTComm conference is a two-day conference.

PAPER SUBMISSION

IPTComm solicits full papers up to 12 pages in length, in
two-column ACM conference format (see
http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/ 
template.html). All submissions must describe original
research, not published nor currently under review for another conference
or journal. The program committee will referee all papers, and
accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings.
Pending cooperation agreements, papers will also be published in the
ACM Digital Library.
