ABSTRACT
JavaScript provides access to all resources via object properties. An access control mechanism that protects confidential information for such a language has to gauge traversals of the object graph. We propose a domain specific language to specify sets of objects, assign read and write permissions to them, and enforce these permissions in limited scopes of a program. To obtain complete interposition, we build the enforcement mechanism into the scripting engine.

Nicholas Weaver received a B.A. in Astrophysics and Computer Science in 1995, and my Ph.D. in Computer Science in 2003 from the University of California at Berkeley. Although his dissertation was on novel FPGA architectures, Nick was also interested in Computer Security, including postulating the possibility of very fast computer worms in 2001. In 2003, Nicholas Weaver joined ICSI, first as a postdoc and then as a staff researcher. His primary research focus is on network security, notably worms, botnets, and other internet-scale attacks, and network measurement.

CONFERENCE GOALS
The GameSec conference aims to bring together researchers who are
working on the theoretical foundations and behavioral aspects of
enhancing security capabilities in a principled manner. Previous
GameSec contributions included analytic models based on game,
information, communication, optimization, decision, and control
theories that were applied to diverse security topics. In addition, we
welcome research that highlights the connection between economic

Abstract
Vehicle automation has progressed from systems that monitor the operation of a vehicle, such as antilock brakes and cruise control, to systems that sense adgacent vehicles, such as emergency braking and intelligent cruise control. The next generation of systems will share sensor readings and collaborate to control braking operations by looking several cars ahead or by creating safe gaps for merging vehicles.
