Highlights and changes for LICS 2012 Starting 2012, LICS is jointly organized by ACM and IEEE, and is cosponsored by ACM SIGACT and the IEEE Computer Society's Technical Committee on Mathematical Foundations of Computing. In response to concerns about LICS becoming overly selective with a too-narrow technical focus, the program committee will employ a merit-based selection with no a priori limit on the number of accepted papers. LICS 2012 will continue the tradition of pre-conference tutorials that was initiated in 2011. This year, Jan Willem Klop will give a tutorial on term rewriting systems and Andre Platzer will give a…

The Computer Security Foundations Symposium (CSF) is an annual conference for researchers in computer security, to examine current theories of security, the formal models that provide a context for those theories, and techniques for verifying security. It was created in 1988 as a workshop of the IEEE Computer Society's Technical Committee on Security and Privacy, in response to a 1986 essay by Don Good entitled “The Foundations of Computer Security—We Need Some.” The meeting became a “symposium” in 2007, along with a policy for open, increased attendance. Over the past two decades, many seminal papers and techniques have been presented…

The IEEE/IFIP International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks (DSN) is the premier international conference for presenting the very best research results, problem solutions, and insight on new challenges facing the field of dependability and security.
