CALL FOR PAPERS:
IEEE International Symposium on Hardware Oriented Security and Trust (HOST) aims to facilitate the rapid growth of hardware-based security research and development. HOST highlights new results in the area of hardware and system security. Relevant research topics include techniques, tools, design/test methods, architectures, circuits, and applications of secure hardware. HOST 2017 invites original contributions related to, but not limited by, the following topics.
Hardware Trojan attacks and detection techniques
Hardware techniques to facilitate software and/or system security
Hardware-based security primitives (PUFs, RNGs)
System-on-chip (SoC) security
Side-channel attacks and protection
Security, privacy, and trust protocols
Metrics, policies, and standards related to hardware security
Hardware IP trust (watermarking, metering, trust verification)
Trusted manufacturing including split manufacturing and 3D ICs
Security analysis and protection of Internet of Things (IoT)
Secure and efficient implementation of crypto algorithms
Reverse engineering and hardware obfuscation
Supply chain risks mitigation (e.g., counterfeit detection & avoidance)
Hardware tampering attacks and protection
Applications of hardware security to secure system development
You can register and submit your paper at: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=host2017. The page limit is 6 pages, double column, IEEE format, with a minimum font size of 10 points. Submissions are anonymous and must not identify the authors, directly or indirectly, anywhere in the manuscript.

For Students:
Students can participate in a hardware demo session by submitting a 1-page proposal describing the research and features to be demonstrated on an FPGA or other hardware platform. Please upload your proposal to EasyChair by March 15, 2017.
A best paper award will be given to paper whose first author is a full-time student.
A best presentation award will be given to a speaker who is a full-time student.
Travel grants are available for graduate and undergraduate students.
