CONFERENCE OUTLINE AND STRUCTURE
This Annual International Conference is an established platform in which
security, safety and sustainability issues can be examined from several
global perspectives through dialogue between academics, students, government
representatives, chief executives, security professionals, and research
scientists from Europe and around the globe.

The focus will be on the challenges of complexity, rapid pace of change and
risk/opportunity issues associated with modern products, systems, special
events and infrastructures. The conference will provide an opportunity for
systems scientists, assurance researchers, owners, operators and maintainers
of large, complex and advanced systems and infrastructures to update their
knowledge with the state of best practice in these challenging domains
whilst networking with the leading researchers and solution providers.

This conference aims to attract an International audience to provide a forum
for the dissemination of research accomplishments and promote interaction
and collaboration between the researchers and practitioners in the security
field; to meet and discuss current and future e-security needs and issues.

As we are approaching the 30th Olympiad to be held in London in 2012, the
conference's organizing committee is keen to explore issues of safety and
security, as well sustainability following such a major event drawn from the
experiences of recent Olympic Games and other big sporting, cultural and
humanitarian operations.

CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS
The conference proceedings will be published as a volume of CCIS series from
Springer.
