==================================================================================================

Future Generation Communication environments (FGC) are advanced communication and networking environments where 
all applications and services are focused on users. In addition, the FGC has emerged rapidly an exciting new paradigm 
to provide reliable and comfortable life services. Furthermore, the benefits of FGC will only be realized if security 
issues can be appropriately addressed. Specially, forensics for FGC is very important in the security fields. 
This workshop is intended to foster state-of-the-art research forensics in the area of FGC including information 
and communication technologies, law, social sciences and business administration.
The F2GC-10 will provide an opportunity for academic and industry professionals to discuss the latest issues and 
progress in the area of forensics. And the workshop will publish high quality papers which are closely related to the 
various theories and practical applications in F2GC. Furthermore, we expect that the workshop and its publications 
will be a trigger for further related research and technology improvements in this important subject.

Authors of accepted papers, or at least one of them, are requested to register and present their work at the workshop, 
otherwise their papers will be removed from the digital library after the conference. 


== Proceeding ==

All accepted papers will bepublished in the Springer CCIS proceedings (EI and ISTP), which will be indexed by the following services: EI Compendex(Since 2010), ISI Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Science (CPCI-S), included in ISI Web of Science, DBLP and Scopus.

Instructions for papers in the Springer's CCIS（Note that the paper format of CCIS is the same as that of LNCS）

- Prepare your paper in the exact format as the sample paper for CCIS. Failure to do so may result in the exclusion of your paper from the proceedings. Please read the authors' instructions carefully before preparing your papers. 
- Springer accepts both Microsoft Word and LaTex format in the Lecture Note Series. However, FTRA does not accept the use of LaTex. Therefore, you should use the Microsoft Word instead of using LaTex (The paper will be excluded from the proceeding if you use LaTex). Springer provides the relevant templates and sample files for both PC (sv-lncs.dot) and Mac (sv-lncs) environments. 
- Please download word.zip (http://www.springer.com/cda/content/document/cda_downloaddocument/word.zip?SGWID=0-0-45-72919-0). If you need more help on preparing your papers, please visit Springer's LNCS web page (http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-2-72376-0).


In addition, distinguished papers accepted and presented in F2GC-11, after further revisions, will be published in special issues of the following prestigious international journals.     

- The Computer Jorunal - Oxford University Press (SCI-E)
- Security and Communication Networks - Wiley InterScience (SCIE)
- JoC , FTRA Publising 
- IJITCC , InderScience.
- Journal of Information Processing Systems (JIPS) , KIPS (KCIE)
