IDC-2020 Special Track on Intelligent Distributed Computing for Cyber-Physical Security and Safety (IDCCPSS) aims to bring together researchers and practitioners in multiple disciplines of intelligent distributed computing in its application to cyber-physical security and safety in various application domains. The special session will focus on diversity of issues related to cyber-physicalsecurity, safety and dependability, swarm Intelligence and robotics, privacy, trust, reputation and others.Potential authors are invited to submit their original papers. A paper should be at most 10 pages long and must be formatted accordingly. Papers must not be under review by any other conference or publication during the review process, and must not be previously published or accepted for publication elsewhere.
All submissions will be reviewed by at least 2 members of the Technical Program Committee.
All accepted papers are planned to be included in the IDC-2020 Symposium Proceedings, which will be published by Springer as part of their series Studies in Computational Intelligence.
The topics, which need to be addressed from the IDCCPSS perspective, include, but are not limited to:

• Security of Cyber-Physical Systems
• Safety and Dependability
• Security and Safety of Wireless Sensor Networks
• Security, privacy, trust and reputation
• Modeling Attacks and Security Incidents in Distributed Systems
• Intelligent Distributed Solutions against Cyber-Physical Attacks
• IoT and Embedded Security
• Practical Applications of Intelligent Distributed Computing to Different Security and Safety Problem Domains
• Security of Swarm Intelligence and Robotics
• Security Enhanced Intelligent Distributed Systems
