ICICS 2002 Call for Participation Welcome to the Fourth International Conference on Information and Communications Security (ICICS'02), to be held in Singapore on 9-12 December.
The three previous conferences were held in Beijing (ICICS'97), Sydney (ICICS'99) and Xian (ICICS'01), where we had an enthusiastic and well-participated event. During the past five years the conference has placed equal emphasis on the theoretical as well as practical aspects of information and communications security and has established itself as a forum at which academic and industrial people meet and discuss emerging security challenges and solutions. We hope to uphold this tradition by offering you yet another successful meeting with a rich and interesting program. The response to the Call For Papers was overwhelming, 161 paper submissions were received. Therefore, the paper selection process was very competitive and difficult - only 41 papers were accepted and many good papers had to be rejected. The proceedings will be published by Springer as LNCS Vol. 2513, and be available at the conference.
