 			CALL FOR PAPERS

		 First World Conference on
	Network Assurance of Computer and Communication
			 (NACC1)

		 May 29 - June 1, 1997

		 NACC1 Conference

 University of Wisconsin, Madison, WISCONSIN, USA

Brief Description and Themes:

The security problem of computer-communication networks has attracted
some attention in past few years. The human fact of security is almost
always ignored in such consideration. Due to current needs, we have to
consider in the situation when computer people work in an environment
where their own activity and privacy are not secured. In such case, we
have to consider the security problem along with some extra networks
which are created by that environment.

A Star Net is one of such nets where one of the person's security is
not guaranteed, or everyone else can read that person's mind any
time. We are interested in the resolution of how well that computer
person could possibly protect his/her intellectual property.

A Galaxy Net is one of such nets where more than one person is not
secured, or everyone else can read these people's minds any time. We
are interested in the resolution of how well these computer people
could possibly protect their intellectual properties.

Generally, A Di-graph Net is one of such nets where everyone's
security of mind or mind readability by others are specified by a
di-graph or a reading relation. We are interested in the resolution of
how well these computer people could possibly protect their
intellectual properties.

In particular, A Chaos Net is Di-graph Net whose corresponding
di-graph is a complete di-graph. Similar resolution is in interests.

In above cases, the computer nets are arbitrary and need to do case
studies.

Linguistic and game theory could put into consideration.
