                        PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS
                         NEW SECURITY PARADIGMS '97

A workshop sponsored by ACM and the University of Newcastle upon Tyne.

                               Langdale Hotel
                        Great Langdale, Cumbria, UK

                           23 - 26 September 1997


Paradigm shifts disrupt the status quo, destroy outdated ideas, and open the
way to new possibilities.  This workshop explores deficiencies of current
computer security paradigms and examines radical new models which address
those deficiencies.  Previous years' workshops have identified problematic
aspects of traditional security paradigms and explored a variety of possible
alternatives.  Participants have discussed alternative models for access
control, intrusion detection; new definitions of security, privacy, secrecy
and trust; biological and economic models of security; multiple policies;
and a wide variety of other topics.  The 1997 workshop will strike a balance
between building on the foundations laid in past years and exploring in new
directions.

We offer a creative and constructive workshop environment for about
25 participants at the Langdale Hotel in the English Lake District.

Because of the workshop format, the organizers urge submitters to arrange to
be present for all three days of the conference; authors' ability to attend
for the duration of the workshop will be considered when evaluating
submissions for acceptance.

Dress is casual.  The tone of the workshop is exploratory rather than
critical.  The refereed papers will be printed in a workshop proceedings.

To participate, please submit the following, preferably via e-mail, to both
Program Chairs (Mary Ellen Zurko and Catherine Meadows) at the e-mail
addresses listed below by 4 April 1997:

  (1) Your paper

      This should be either a research paper or a 5-10 page position paper.
      Softcopy submissions should be in Postscript or ASCII format.

      Papers may be submitted in hardcopy.  To submit hardcopy, please mail
      five (5) copies to Program co-chair Mary Ellen Zurko at the address
      listed below; please allow adequate time for delivery; the hardcopy
      deadline is 28 March 1997.

  (2) A justification

      This should describe, in one page or less, why you think your paper
      is appropriate for the New Security Paradigms Workshop.  A good
      justification will describe which aspects of the status-quo security
      paradigm your paper rejects and which new model or models your paper
      proposes or extends.

  (3) An attendance statement

      This should state how many authors wish to attend the workshop, and
      should indicate whether at least one author will be able to attend for
      the entire duration of the workshop.

The Program Committee will referee the papers and notify authors of
acceptance status by 13 June 1997.

We expect a limited number of scholarships to be available.

More information will be provided on-line as it becomes available.
