SCOPE

We are seeking papers describing innovative approaches in

trust representation, modelling and processing. NNTCM'2014

will include technical aspects on how trust can be

modelled and represented in computational environments, by

addressing advances in the theory, design, implementation,

analysis, and application of trust concepts. There is also

interest in knowing how trust methodologies and concepts from

different areas can be transposed and adapted in other fields

scenarios by discussing the advantages and limitations of the

different trust implementations currently being developed.

Focus will be on new and emerging areas such as immersive

environments, cloud services and information systems

reliability, but also on insights from social sciences in

cognitive developments and mediated computational interactions.

We also would like to contribute to consolidate the field of

trust computing by presenting and discussing emergent scenarios

that would benefit from further integration of trust

conceptualizations. We are particularly interested in papers

that relate complementary trust methodologies, using

conceptualizations from different contexts and backgrounds in

the development of new and innovative computational trust

models. We encourage original research contributions in trust

representation, modelling and processing as well as practical

developments and experimental results in trust and related topics.

published by Springer-Verlag's, Lecture Notes in Computer

Science series, in the ICCSA'2014 Conference LNCS proceedings

volume.

INDEXATION

The NTTCM'2014 Workshop papers published in a Springer LNCS

volume, will be indexed in the following services:

ISI Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Science

(CPCI-S) included in ISI Web of Science,

REGISTRATION

Registration and oral presentation at the workshop is

compulsory for at least one of the authors of the accepted

papers.

COPYRIGHT

Each paper must be an original and unpublished work, not

submitted for publication elsewhere. Eventual copyright

problems are entirely responsibility of the authors.

REVIEWING

Papers will be reviewed by at least three reviewers in order

to ensure the quality and relevance of the publication

contributions.

ACCEPTANCE

Accepted papers must take in account improvements and

recommendations from the referees. They must follow the

formatting guidelines in the preparation of the camera-ready

paper. Acceptance also require that at least one of the

authors will register and present orally the paper in the

workshop. Failure to comply with these requirements, will lead

to remove the paper from the workshop proceedings and will not be
