Title and scope:
The Firs and Second International Workshops "Mathematical
Methods, Models and Architectures for Computer Networks
Security" (MMM-ACNS-2001
(http://space.iias.spb.su/mmm2001/main.jsp) and MMM-ACNS-2003
(http://space.iias.spb.su/mmm-acns03/index.jsp)) organized in
2001 and 2003 respectively by St. Petersburg Institute for
Informatics and Automation, Binghamton University (SUNY) and
US Air Force Research Laboratory/Information Directorate and
supported by the European Office of Aerospace Research and
Development USAF, Office of Naval Research Global, and
Russian Foundation of Basic Research were very successful.
These workshops demonstrated the high interest of the
international scientific community to the theoretical aspects
of the computer network and information security and the need
for conducting of such workshops as on-going series.
The proposed MMM-ACNS-2005 Workshop is intended as a third
step in this series and will be focused on theoretical
problems in the area under consideration. Its objectives are
to bring together leading researchers from academia and
governmental organizations as well as practitioners in the
area of computer networks and information security,
facilitating personal interactions and discussions on various
aspects of information technologies in conjunction with
computer network and information security problems arising in
large-scale computer networks engaged in information storing,
transmitting, and processing.
Topics of interest:
Papers offering novel research contributions in any aspect of
the theoretical aspects of the computer network and
information security are solicited for submission. Papers may
present theory, technique, and applications on topics
including but are not restricted to:
- Adaptive security
- Anonymity and privacy
- Authentication and authorization
- Access control
- Computer and network forensics
- Data and application security
- Data mining, machine learning, immunological and cognitive
approaches to security
- Deception systems and honeypots
- Denial-of-service attacks and countermeasures
- Electronic commerce security
- Formal analysis of security properties
- Game theoretic approaches to security
- Information flow analysis
- Information survivability
- Information warfare and critical infrastructure protection
- Integrated information security systems based on information fusion
- Intrusion and fraud avoidance, detection, response and tolerance
- Insider attack countermeasures

assistance in housing could be provided for by local
organizers. We intend to engage a travel company to assist
participants in housing and cultural programs. It is possible
to make reservations at reasonable price in hotels in St.
Petersburg downtown area from $75 per night (single room),
and from $85 per night (double room). Also reservations in
better and more expensive hotels at $130 - $400 per night can
be offered (hotels like Astoria, Europe, Nevsky Palace,
etc.).
Visa support
To come to Russia all foreign participants will need an
entering visa. As a host institution SPIIRAS will handle this
issue through a formal invitation letter to every
