Call for Chapters
Handbook of Research on Computational Forensics, Digital Crime and
Investigation: Methods and Solutions
Editor: Chang-Tsun Li
Department of Computer Science, University of Warwick, UK
Introduction
------------
Due to the rise of digital crime and the pressing need for methods of
combating these forms of criminal activities, there is an increasing
awareness of the importance of digital forensics and investigation. The
primary objective of this book is to provide a media for advancing
research and the development of theory and practice of digital crime
prevention and forensics. This book will address a broad range of
digital crime and forensics disciplines that use electronic devices and
software for crime prevention and investigation.
Coverage
--------
The book is intended to cover a wide spectrum of topics that would
inform a broad cross-sectional and multi-disciplinary readership ranging
from the academic and professional research communities to industry
consultants and practitioners. Furthermore, this book seeks to publish a
balanced mix of high quality theoretical and empirical research articles
and case studies. Topics to be included (but not limited to) are as
follows:
- Digital signal processing techniques for crime investigations
- Cryptological techniques and tools for crime investigation
- Cryptological techniques and tools for crime investigation
- Watermarking for digital forensics
- Steganography and steganalysis
- Data carving and recovery
- Machine learning, data mining and information retrieval for crime
prevention and forensics
- Computational approaches to digital crime preventions
- Digital evidence
- Crime scene imaging
- Identity theft and biometrics
- Digital document examination
- Small digital device forensics (cell phones, smart phone, PDAs,
audio/video devices, cameras, flash drives, gaming devices, GPS devices,
etc.)
- RFID technology, applications, security, privacy
- Network access control and intrusion detection
- Malicious codes and computer virology
- Information warfare
- Policy, standards, protocols, accreditation and certification, ethical
issues related to digital crime and forensics
- Criminal investigative criteria and standard of procedure on computer
crime
- Practical case studies and reports, legislative developments and
limitations, law enforcement
- Terrorism related analytical methodologies and software tools
- Terrorism knowledge portals and databases
- Terrorist incident chronology databases
Invited Submissions
-------------------
Individuals interested in submitting chapters (8,000-10,000 words) on
the above-suggested topics or other related topics in their area of
interest should submit via e-mail a 2-3 page manuscript proposal clearly
explaining the mission and concerns of the proposed chapter by 30 June,
2008. We strongly encourage other topics that have not been listed in
our suggested list, particularly if the topic is related to the research
area in which you have expertise. Upon acceptance of your proposal, you
will have until 30 October, 2008, to prepare your chapter of
8,000-10,000 words and 7-10 related terms and their appropriate
definitions. Guidelines for preparing your paper and terms and
definitions will be sent to you upon acceptance of your proposal. Full
chapters will be submitted for double-blind review.
Please forward your e-mail of interest including your name, affiliation
and a list of topics (5-7) on which you are interested in writing a
chapter to Chang-Tsun Li, at ctli at (no spam) dcs.warwick.ac.uk, by no later than 30
June, 2008. Please use "Book Proposal" as the email subject. You will be
notified about the status of your proposed topics by 31 July, 2008.
This book is scheduled to be published by IGI Global (formerly Idea
Group Inc.), www.igi-global.com, publisher of the Information Science
Reference (formerly Idea Group Reference) and Medical Science Reference
imprints in 2010.
