In the past few years we have been witnessing a strong interest in and
devotement to academic research and industry
activities on Trusted Infrastructure Technologies in the Asia and
Pacific region. Two workshops on these topics
have been held, one workshop, WATC'06, was held in Tokyo, Japan in November 2006
(www.trl.ibm.com/project/watc). Another workshop, a summer school on
these topics was launched in August 2007 in Zhuhai China
(www.aptiss.org). The Advisory Board and Industry Sponsors of these
events wish to continue fostering and supporting
Trusted Infrastructure research activities in this region and announce
the coming conference: the 3rd Asia-Pacific Trusted
Infrastructure Technologies Conference, to be held on a cruise on the
Yangtze River near Three Gorges Dam in China in
October 2008. Original papers are solicited for submission to APTC 2008.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Trusted Computing
Middleware Security
Trust & Security for Grid & Cloud Computing
Secure Virtualization
Virtual Machine Security
Trusted Virtual Domains
Operating Systems Security
Tamper resistant Software
Software Integrity Technologies
Enterprise Rights Management
Security Functionalities in Hardware
Policy Enforcement & Management

Authors are invited to submit original papers not previously published
nor submitted in parallel for publication to
any other conference, workshop or journal. A submission should be
limited to 15 pages of 11pt type excluding
bibliography and appendices, and maximum 20 pages. Authors should
