[PLUG] CSET '12 Submission Deadline Approaching

[Lionel Garth Jones <lgj@usenix.org>]

We're writing to remind you that the submission deadline for the 5th
Workshop on Cyber Security Experimentation and Test (CSET '12) is just
over a month away.

Please submit your work by Thursday, April 19, 2012, 11:59 p.m. PDT
http://www.usenix.org/cset12/cfpb

Position papers, research papers, and extended abstracts are welcome as
submissions. For all submissions, the program committee will give
greater weight to papers that lend themselves to interactive discussion
among attendees. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

* Science of cyber security, e.g., experiences with and discussions of
experimental methodologies

* Measurement and metrics, e.g., what are useful or valid metrics? how do
we know? how does measurement interact with (or interfere with)
evaluation?

* Data sets, e.g., what makes good data sets? how do we know? how do we
compare data sets? how do we collect new ones or generate derived ones?
how do they hold up over time? how well do red teaming or
capture-the-flag exercises generate data sets?

* Simulations and emulations, e.g., what makes good ones? how do they
scale (up or down)?

* Testbeds and experimental infrastructure, e.g., tools, usage
techniques, support for experimentation in emerging security topics
(cyber-physical systems, wireless, etc.)

* Experiences with cyber security education, e.g., capture-the-flag
exercises, novel experimentation techniques used in education, novel
ways to teach hands-on cyber security

CSET '12 is designed to be a workshop in the traditional sense.
Presentations are expected to be interactive with the expectation that a
substantial amount of this time may be given to questions and audience
discussion.

Call for Papers at http://www.usenix.org/cset12/cfpb

We look forward to receiving your submissions!
