Submission Deadline : April 2, 2013, 23:59 GMT+02
***********************************************************

RFIDsec is the premier workshop devoted to security and privacy in
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) with participants throughout
the world. RFIDsec brings together researchers from academia and
industry for topics of importance to improving the security and
privacy of RFID, NFC, contactless technologies, and the Internet
of Things. RFIDsec bridges the gap between cryptographic
researchers and RFID developers through invited talks and
contributed presentations. The Workshop on RFID Security 2013 is
the ninth edition of a series of workshops.


IMPORTANT DATES:

Submission Deadline: April 2, 2013.
Notification: May 28, 2013.
Workshop: July 09-11, 2013.


Topics of the workshop include but are not limited to:

* New applications for secure RFID, NFC, and other constrained
systems
* Resource-efficient implementations of cryptography
o Small-footprint hardware and/or software
o Low-power and/or low energy implementations
* Attacks on RFID systems
o Side-channel attacks
o Fault attacks
o Hardware tampering
* Data protection and privacy-enhancing techniques
* Cryptographic protocols
o Authentication protocols
o Key distribution
o Scalability issues
* Integration of secure RFID systems
o Infrastructures
o Middleware and security
* Data mining and other systemic approaches to RFID security
* RFID hardware security
o Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs)
o RFID Trojans
* Case studies


WORKSHOP PROCEEDINGS:

The proceedings of RFIDsec 2013 will be published in Springer's Lecture
Notes in Computer Science.

Authors of accepted papers must complete the copyright assignment form
for their work to be published in the proceedings, and guarantee that
their paper will be presented at the conference.


INSTRUCTION FOR AUTHORS:

Authors are invited to submit papers (PDF or PS format) with novel
contributions. The submission must be anonymous with no author names,
affiliations or obvious references. The length of the submission must
be at most 12 pages excluding references and appendices (not more than
15 pages in total). The text should be in a single column format, in at
least 11-point fonts and have reasonable margins. The reviewers are not
required to read appendices - the paper should be intelligible without
them. Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without
consideration of their merits.

Submissions must not substantially duplicate work that any of the
authors has published in a journal or a conference/workshop with
proceedings, or has submitted/is planning to submit before the author
notification deadline to a journal or other conferences/workshops that
have proceedings. Accepted submissions may not appear in any other
conference or workshop that has proceedings. It is encouraged that
the submission be processed in LaTeX2e according to the instructions
listed on Springer's web site. These instructions are mandatory for
the final papers. Submitted papers must be in PDF format and should be
submitted electronically via:
