************************************************************

The World Congress on Industrial Control Systems Security (WCICSS-2015)

Venue: Heathrow Windsor Marriott Hotel

December 14 - 16, 2015, London, UK

(www.wcicss.org)

************************************************************

The WCICSS-2015 is a meeting point for professionals and researchers,

IT security professionals, managers, developers, educators, vendors

and service providers who are involved in development, integration,

assessment, implementation, and operation of industrial cybersecurity

technologies. Therefore, the conference will provide opportunities

to discuss both the current status and emerging trends in protection

of industrial control systems.



The aim of WCICSS is to provide an opportunity for academicians and

professionals from various educational fields with cross-disciplinary

interests to bridge the knowledge gap, promote research esteem and the

evolution of pedagogy. The WCICSS-2015 invites research papers that

encompass conceptual analysis, design implementation and performance

evaluation.
