Call for Participation: 2nd SysSec Workshop
===========================================

24 July 2013, Bochum, Germany - http://syssec-project.eu/wks2

As part of its dissemination activities, the SysSec Network of
Excellence organizes a workshop focused on system security research, to
consolidate the Systems Security research community in Europe. The
specific format of this workshop has been developed to:

   1. showcase and spread the excellence in systems security research
   in Europe, by presenting a selection of papers published by
   European researchers and Europe-funded research projects in top
   conferences in the area

   2. involve students and young researchers by allowing them to
   showcase their own best results and expose them to top researchers
   in the field

   3. create a generational exchange between experienced and starting
   researchers, focusing around a tutorial on how to get your research
   published in top venues (a session describing the "best previously
   rejected papers" of the last years)

The workshop will be co-located with the UbiCrypt Summer School 2013
on Reverse Engineering, taking place from July 22nd to July 26th. The
deadline to register for the Summer School is June 28, 2013.  The
school offers graduate students and young researchers the opportunity
to learn more about binary analysis and malware reverse
engineering.
