www.dfrws.org
dfrws2006 (at) dfrws (dot) org
The purpose of this workshop is to bring together researchers,
practitioners, and educators interested in digital forensics. We
welcome the participation of people in industry, government, law
enforcement, and academia who are interested in advancing the state
of the art in digital forensics by sharing their results, knowledge,
and experiences. The accepted papers will be published in printed
proceedings.
Topics of Interest
We are looking for research papers, demo proposals, and panel
proposals. Major areas of interest include, but are not limited to,
the following topics:
- Incident response and live analysis
- OS and application analysis
- Multimedia analysis
- File system analysis
- Memory analysis
- Network analysis
- Data hiding and recovery
- Event reconstruction
- Large-scale investigations
- Data mining techniques
- Automated searching
- Tool testing and development
- Digital evidence storage formats
- Digital evidence and the law
- Traceback and attribution
- Physical media analysis
- Case studies and trend reports
- Non-traditional approaches to forensic analysis
Important Dates
Papers, demo, and panels submission deadline: April 21, 2006
Author notification: May 21, 2006
Camera-ready copies due: June 21, 2006
Workshop dates: August 14-16, 2006
Submission
Papers must be written in English and should not be longer than 10
single spaced, double column pages. All papers should illustrate
the applicability of their work to practical issues. Papers must
not significantly duplicate work that has been presented or published
elsewhere. The papers will be published in printed proceedings.
The DFRWS 2006 review process will be "double-blind" (the reviewers
will not know who the authors are and the authors will not know who
the reviewers are). Therefore, the version submitted for review
should not contain the names or affiliations of the authors. When
referring to one's previous work, the writing should be in the third
person instead of the first person (i.e. "Smith and Jones [2]
previously determined..." instead of "We [2] previously determined..").
Accepted papers will obviously contain the names and affiliations of
authors.
Panel proposals should be one to three pages and clearly describe
the topic, its relevance and a list of potential panelists and their
biographies.
Proposals for demonstrations of proof of concept and research-based
tools are welcome. Proposals should describe the tool, its relevance
to one of the topics listed above, and space/equipment needs (e.g.,
power, networking, etc.)
Paper submissions must be in PDF format. Panel and demo proposals
can be in either plain text or PDF. Documents can be submitted
via the EDAS system at:
