Topics

Contributions are solicited in all aspects of bio-inspired and trust management systems, including:

• Bio-inspired models for managing trust in any information systems (e.g., virtual organizations, cloud computing, mobile-ad-hoc/opportunistic/delay-tolerant networks, grids, service oriented architectures, self-organizing networks and communities, mobile cooperative systems, mobile platforms, and recommender systems).
• Fixed and mobile architectures and protocols for distributed trust management.
• Identity management in trust models.
• Security attacks to trust systems and adaptive bio-inspired defenses.
• Incorporation of bio-inspired algorithms into security communication protocols and computing architectures.
• Description of pilot programs, case studies, applications, work-in-progress, surveys, and experiments integrating biological designs or trust and security aspects into information systems.
