Introduction

E-Science and e-Research can, through development of Grids and

e-Infrastructures be used to support a wide range of research

disciplines and inter-disciplinary research. In recent years, the

influence of e-Science and e-Research has grown considerably and their

scope of application now covers many research domains, from science and

engineering disciplines such as physical, biological, clinical sciences

and so on, through to the arts and humanities and social sciences.

Supporting e-Science and e-Research often places numerous demands on

capabilities associated with e-Infrastructures. One key challenge is

with regard to security. Security technologies must support a variety of

user and provider requirements such as authentication, authorization,

trust, privacy, policy management, information assurance all in a user

and provider friendly framework. Many e-Science and e-Research projects

have developed distinctive security analyses, requirements, and

technical solutions for a variety of applications.

This workshop intends to provide a forum for researchers, developers and

users working on security issues associated with e-Science and

e-Research to exchange ideas and share experiences. The workshop has

emphasis on establishing a state of the art for security in e-Science

and e-Research, identifying challenges and discussing solutions for

successfully enabling security for e-Science and e-Research.The workshop

program will be a blend of invited talks, presentations of research

papers, and discussions about the current status, emergent areas, and

trends on security-related issues in e-Science and e-Research.

Topics of interest

We solicit original papers reporting a wide spectrum of topics related

to security in e-Science and e-Research. Topics of interest include but

are not limited to:

* Eliciting security requirements for e-Science and e-Research applications

* Analysis of security challenges, threats, risk and issues in e-Science

and e-Research

* Security architectures, frameworks, and infrastructures for e-Science

and e-Research

* Models and techniques for authentication and identity management in

e-Science and e-Research

* Models and techniques for authorization and access control in

e-Science and e-Research

* Trust model and management for e-Science and e-Research

* Privacy mechanisms and management for e-Science and e-Research

* Policy models and policy management in e-Science and e-Research

* Information assurance for e-Science and e-Research applications

* Security issues and solutions for data providers and data users

* Model and frameworks for security-driven workflows

* Supporting end-end security solutions for e-Science and e-Research

* User-driven security models for e-Science and e-Research

* Software engineering best practice in the development of security

software

* We also welcome experiences, case studies on the practical application

of security models and solutions in e-Science and e-Research

Submissions

The format of submitted papers should follow the guidelines for IEEE

conference proceedings format (8.5" x 11", Two-Column). Each accepted

paper is limited to 6 pages (or 8 pages with over length charge). Paper

should be submitted in PDF format via email to issr.workshopgooglemail.com (Cc: wei DOT jie AT manchester DOT ac DOT uk).

The proceedings of this workshop will be published by IEEE Computer

Society Press (Indexed by EI). Authors of selected papers will be

invited to submit extended versions to high quality journals to be

announced.

Submitting a paper to the workshop means that if the paper is accepted,

at least one author should attend the workshop to present the paper. For no-show authors, their papers will be removed from the digital library after the conference and their affiliations will receive a notification.
