This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Workshop on Design, Specification, and Verification of Interactive Systems, DSV-IS 2008, held in Kingston, Canada, in July 2008. The 21 revised full papers and 10 late breaking and experience report papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions for inclusion in the book. The papers cover user interface evaluation and specification, with particular emphasis on the use of task models to provide high-level approaches for capturing the intended functionality of a user interface; examining techniques for modeling user interfaces, particularly for mobile and ubiquitous applications; advanced implementation techniques for interactive systems; and architecture of interactive systems with special focus on evaluation and specification.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Privacy Enhancing Technologies, PET 2008, held in Leuven, Belgium, in July 2008 in conjunction with WOTE 2008, the IAVoSS Workshop on Trustworthy Elections. The 13 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from 48 submissions during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The papers - both from academia and industry - cover design and realization of privacy services for the internet and other communication networks and present novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of privacy technologies, as well as experimental studies of fielded systems.

The present volume arose from the need for a comprehensive coverage of the state of the art in security protocol analysis. It aims to serve as an overall course-aid and to provide self-study material for researchers and students in formal methods theory and applications in e-commerce, data analysis and data mining. The volume will also be useful to anyone interested in secure e-commerce. The book is organized in eight chapters covering the main approaches and tools in formal methods for security protocol analysis. It starts with an introductory chapter presenting the fundamentals and background knowledge with respect to formal methods and security protocol analysis. Chapter 2 provides an overview of related work in this area, including basic concepts and terminology. Chapters 3 and 4 show a logical framework and a model checker for analyzing secure transaction protocols. Chapter 5 explains how to deal with uncertainty issues in secure messages, including inconsistent messages and conflicting beliefs in messages. Chapter 6 integrates data mining with security protocol analysis, and Chapter 7 develops a new technique for detecting collusion attack in security protocols. Chapter 8 gives a summary of the chapters and presents a brief discussion of some emerging issues in the field.

This book constitutes the combined proceedings of the second working conference on Human-Centred Software Engineering (HCSE 2008) and the 6th International Workshop on TAsk MOdels and DIAgrams (TAMODIA 2008); jointly held as EIS 2008, the international event on Engineering Interactive Systems, in Pisa, Italy, in September 2008. The 3 revised full and 11 revised short papers of HCSE 2008 and 7 revised long and 5 revised short papers of TAMODIA 2008 presented together with a keynote paper and 3 demonstration papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions for inclusion in the book. HCSE 2008 addresses the scientific foundations of user interface design, examining the relationship between software engineering and human-computer interaction and user-centred design as an essential part of software engineering process. TAMODIA 2008 is an international workshop on models, such as task models and visual representations in Human-Computer Interaction and focuses on notations used to describe user tasks ranging from textual and graphical forms to interactive, multimodal and multimedia tools.
