**Call for Papers**

Elsevier Computers & Electrical Engineering (CAEE) Special issue on
Critical Systems Modeling and Security

*Aim and Scope*

Modeling is an essential tool for the study and analysis of security
and dependability of Critical Information Infrastructures. It can be
used to evaluate properties such as disruption, disturbance and loss
of information, and to anticipate incidents that could lead to
situations involving economical, material and, even, human loss. This
special issue is intended to report the most recent research works
related to security threats, critical service malfunctioning or
information leakage targeting, among others, SCADA, Industrial Control
Systems and other Critical Scenarios, associated to both government
and industrial companies. It also seeks to report new needs,
approaches, methods and tools addressing this crucial topic.

*Topics of Interest*

The objective is to bring together advances particularly in the
following fields (not limited to):

-- Attack and vulnerability analysis
-- Benchmarking and statistical analysis tools
-- Wireless security modeling
-- Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP)
-- Cybersecurity and cyberwarfare modeling
-- Continuity of services
-- Dependable communication models
-- Infrastructure security modeling
-- Early Warning Systems
-- Embedded Technologies Security
-- Intrusion detection and prevention in Critical Scenarios
-- Fault tolerance and incident response
-- Risk analysis and management
-- SCADA/DCS and Control System Security
-- Secure information sharing
-- Security and dependability logistic models
-- Self-management architectures
-- Situation awareness and response optimization
-- Trust and reputation management in Critical Scenarios

*Submission Guidelines*

Papers will be evaluated based on their originality, presentation,
relevance and contribution to the topic associated to the special
issue, and for their overall quality. The submitted papers have to
describe original research which has not been published nor currently
under review by other journals or conferences. Guest editors will make
an initial determination of the suitability and scope of all
submissions. Papers that either lack originality, clarity in
presentation or fall outside the scope of the special issue will not
be sent for review and authors will be promptly informed in such
cases.

Author guidelines for preparation of manuscript can be found at:

http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/367/authorinstructions

Papers should be submitted via the EES application that can be found
at http://ees.elsevier.com/compeleceng/

To ensure that all manuscripts are correctly identified for inclusion
into the special issue, it is important that authors select SI-sec
when they reach the 'Article Type' step in the submission process.

*Schedule*

Manuscript Due: April 30, 2016
First Round of Reviews: June 30, 2016
Second Round of Reviews: August 15, 2016
Acceptance of Final papers: December 15, 2016

Final Manuscript Due: April 22, 2016
Conference: July 18-20, 2016

Submissions:
The submission deadline is February 19, 2016 (anywhere on Earth). AAIM

submissions, please send e-mails to aaim2016@easychair.org

Only previously unpublished new results will be considered for
publication. Papers that have already been published or simultaneously
submitted at another journal or conference (with published
proceedings) will not be considered.

A submission should start with the title of the paper, each author's
name, affiliation, and e-mail address, and a one-paragraph summary of
the results. This should be followed by a scholarly exposition of the
ideas, techniques, and a full description of the results achieved. A
clear indication of the motivation and comparison with prior or
related work should be presented. The paper should not exceed 12
pages, including bibliography, formatted for letter-size paper using
11 point or larger font, with at least one inch margins around.
Additional details can be included in a clearly marked appendix, to be
consulted at the discretion of program committee members. The appendix
is not included in the page limit, and will not be published in the
conference proceedings.

Submissions that deviate significantly from these guidelines or are
unprintable risk rejection without consideration of their merit.

At least one author of an accepted paper is expected to present the
paper at the conference as a registered participant.

The Proceedings of the Conference will be published by Springer in the
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, and will be available
for distribution at the conference.

Special Issues:
Selected high quality papers will be invited to a special issue of
Theoretical Computer Science. The invited papers will go through the
normal reviewing process.
