[WM]: CFP: Workshop on Data Hiding for Information and Multimedia Security
2007 International Workshop on Data Hiding for Information and Multimedia Security
in conjunction with
The Third International Symposium on Information Assurance and Security
(IAS'07)
August 29 - 31, 2007
Manchester, United Kingdom
As rapid and tremendous progress in information technology is constantly being made, and, while an enormous amount of media such
as text, audio, speech, music, image and video can be easily exchanged through the Internet and other communication networks,
information security issues such as copyright protection, digital right management, integrity verification, authentication, and
access control have become exceptionally acute. As a result, the subject of data hiding for information security and forensics
has been taken as one of the top research and development agendas for researchers, organisations and governments worldwide. In
addition, data hiding techniques have also found applications in the areas of covert communication, image/video indexing,
medical image archiving and exchange, transmission error recovery and concealment, image captioning, audio in video for language
translation, etc.

Recommended topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Digital watermarking
* Fingerprinting / transaction tracking of multimedia
* Steganography and steganalysis
* Integrity verification and authentication
* Data hiding for media annotation
* Data hiding for transmission error recovery and concealment
* Data hiding for medical image archiving and exchange
* Tampering and attacks on original information
* Quality metrics and benchmarking
* System design and implementation
* Digital rights management
* Technical analysis of system vulnerabilities
* Content identification and secure content delivery
* Applications of information hiding in law enforcement, medicine, milita= ry, and E-commerce
