Autonomic and Trusted Computing

No fewer than 55 revised full papers are presented in this volume, all given at the 4th International Conference on Autonomic and Trusted Computing, held in Hong Kong, China in July 2007. The papers, presented together with one keynote lecture, were carefully reviewed and selected from 223 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on, among others, cryptography and signatures, autonomic computing and services, and secure and trusted computing.
