Richard Thieme will be coming back to present the keynote speech again. 
Richard's thought provoking words kicked off last year's conference. 

Jeremy Morton (of Purdue University) will present a paper entitled 
"Biometric Security Implementation in Airports". The paper details 
research undertaken at Purdue to test and evalute a real world 
implementation at Purdue University airport. Areas that will be 
covered include:

. Analysis of biometrics role in the Airport
. Security threats taken by implementing biometrics
. Vulnerabilities associated with aviation biometrics 
. Ideal environment for implementation of a biometric system
. Future of biometrics in the airport

As an added plus - Jeremy will also be demonstrating an exact replica 
of the actual system used. This will involve enrolling volunteers to 
demonstrate how the technology is used at Purdue.

The Call For Papers is still open until August 1st, so theres still
time to get your submissions in.
