Submission deadline | March 12, 2018 |
Information technology has become the driving force behind most innovation in the automotive industry, supporting connectivity, infotainment, and automation applications. The situation is similar for commercial vehicles.
A crucial aspect of most automotive electronic applications is cybersecurity. Cybersecurity can enable new innovation and business models but, as demonstrated recently by various researchers, cybersecurity issues can jeopardize those innovations and even potentially endanger safety.
The escar series of workshops, held annually in Europe, the USA, and Asia, has established itself as the premier forum for information, discussion and exchange of ideas on all aspects of vehicle cybersecurity and privacy. As in previous years, the program will include invited talks, but we will accept submitted papers and talks in the following areas:
Instructions for Paper SubmissionTheoretical/scientific articles, case studies and descriptions of real-world experience are welcome. All submissions will be peer-reviewed. Prospective authors should contact one of steering committee members in case they have a doubt about the appropriateness of their submission for the conference. Two types of submissions will be accepted: Full papers of up to 15 pages: This can be, for example, new research results, case studies, or state-of-the-art reports. The value to the escar community should be clearly demonstrated. Extended abstracts of 3 or more full pages: This category is geared towards contributions from industry and government. These will consist of a presentation only - no full paper will be required. The abstract must be at least 3 full pages and should clearly outline the content of the planned presentation and its value to the escar community. Important Note 1: Extended abstracts of less than 3 full pages will be rejected without review. Marketing driven submissions and submissions that lack details to enable a review were not well received and almost always rejected in the past. Important Note 2: For both submission types the text must be in English with a font size of at least 10pt. Submissions must be anonymous with no identifying features on the submissions (such as obvious references). Important Note 3: Please ensure that you are able to provide the presentation slides by the deadline listed above. Submissions must be in PDF format and will be accepted at escar’s submission site: |
