Special Issue: NSF Team for Research in Ubiquitous Secure Technology (TRUST) Project Reports

Introduction to the Special Issue:

The emerging dependence of critical national infrastructure, such as finance, energy distribution, telecoommunication, and transportation on information technologies, and consequently increased vulnerability, have made the issues of computer security and trustworthiness as one of the prominent research topics in computer science. The rapid proliferation of embedded systems, and their increased interaction with business and IT systems, render them equally vulnerable to computer security and trustworthiness issues.

This special issue of SIGBED Review, therefore, represents TRUST: Team for Research in Ubiquitous Secure Technology (TRUST), an NSF Science and Technology Center devoted to the development of a new science and technology for designing, building, and operating trustworthy information and embedded systems. The TRUST Center has been running several concurrent collaboration projects across TRUST Member organizations, and Industry. We invited TRUST members to submit reports on their projects for inclusion in this special issue.

Call for Papers:

IEEE Computer Architecture Letters

IEEE Computer Architecture Letters seeks submissions from the SIGBED community. IEEE CAL is a forum for fast publication of new, high-quality ideas in the form of short (4-page), critically refereed, technical papers. Decisions are returned within one month of submission. Submissions on any aspect of computer architecture are accepted on a continuing basis, and accepted letters will be published immediately in IEEE Xplore and the IEEE Computer Society Digital Library, and in the next available print issue. Current acceptance rate is about 25%. For more details, see: http://www.comp-arch-letters.org. For questions, feel free to contact Kevin Skadron (skadron (at) cs .virginia .edu) or Jean-Luc Gaudiot (gaudiot (at) uci .edu).
