SCOPE

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized various industries, including cybersecurity. As cyber threats continue to evolve, AI has emerged as a powerful tool for enhancing the security of software and systems. This workshop aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, and industry experts to discuss the latest advancements, challenges, and opportunities in leveraging AI for secure software and systems.

We invite proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the 11th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Big Data Computing, Applications, and Technologies (BDCAT 2024), with a specific focus on "Artificial Intelligence for Secure Software and Systems".

Workshop proposals should emphasize innovative research topics and foster discussions on the latest developments in the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and security for software and systems.

TOPICS

• Machine learning for threat detection and prevention in software and systems
• AI-driven security analytics in software repositories
• AI-based Techniques for Software Quality, Reliability, and Security
• Secure AI deployment in software and systems
• Privacy-preserving AI techniques for software and systems
• Fault Tolerance for Software Reliability Improvement
• Secure software development methodologies
• AI-powered security testing and evaluation
• Ethical considerations in AI for secure software and systems
• Metrics, Measurements, and Analysis
• Secure and Reliable Storage
• Methodology for secure code development
• Risk management and testing strategies to improve security
• Security engineering processes, from requirements to maintenance
• Software ecosystem and software supply chain security
• Distributed systems design and implementation for security
• Formal verification and other high-assurance methods for security
• Automated security analysis of protocols, source code and binaries

PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Prospective authors are invited to submit original, high-quality papers of up to six pages (IEEE doublecolumn format) including figures, tables, and references. Papers must be submitted in PDF format through the following submission link: AISSS Submission Link.

All submissions will be peer-reviewed by at least three members of the program committee for originality, technical content, relevance to the workshop topics, and clarity. Accepted papers will be included in the workshop proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore.

Authors are invited to strictly adhere to the submission guidlines Authors are invited to submit papers electronically through the following link: BDCAT Submission Link. Submitted manuscripts must represent original unpublished research that is not currently under review for any other conference or journal. Manuscripts are submitted in PDF format and may not exceed ten (10) IEEE-formatted *double-column* pages, including figures, tables, and references. All manuscripts undergo a double-blind peer-review process and will be reviewed and judged on correctness, originality, technical strength, rigor in analysis, quality of results, quality of presentation, and interest and relevance to the conference attendees. Your submission is subject to a determination that you are not under any sanctions by IEEE.

At least one author of each paper must be registered for the conference for the paper to be published in the proceedings. The conference proceedings will be published by the IEEE and made available online via the IEEE Xplore Digital Library and ACM Digital Library.
