Cyber security has become an important research and development area for academia, government, and industry in recent years. As government and industry investment in cyber security research continues to grow, there will be a dramatic increase in the amount of new results generated by the research community, which must be disseminated widely amongst the research community in order to provide the peer review feedback that is needed to ensure that high-quality solutions that address important and emerging security issues are developed.  As a leading professional society focusing on communications technologies, IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc) has identified the need for a high-quality security conference that would focus on communications-oriented aspects of security. IEEE ComSoc has thus decided to launch a new conference dedicated to Communications and Network Security. This new conference is positioned to be a core ComSoc conference (at a level comparable to IEEE INFOCO...

The needs of wireless networks operators and users, as well as service scenarios and application contexts are continuously and rapidly evolving. Unfortunately, the ability of traditional wireless technologies to adapt to this evolution is limited: they were designed as closed systems supporting a pre-established wireless access operation, and standardization organizations are slow in adapting to new requirements. This explains why a lot of potentially efficient but not fully standard compliant solutions have been discarded without consideration even if they had required a little change of the standard. All this can be highly improved if existing wireless access standards based on closed architecture move towards new modular flexible architectures, opportunistically open for customization. Nowadays many researchers from all over the world are involved in designing such architectures for the next generation wireless technologies (Google finds about 3 000 000 results for the keywords...
