Call for Papers:

CIPLIT and CTI invite your participation in the Symposium: "Privacy and Identity: The Promise and the Perils of a Technological Age."  The goal of the Symposium is to bring together leading researchers in advanced technology and leading thinkers from the law and policy arenas to consider together the promise and perils that recent and upcoming technological innovations hold for privacy. 

We encourage submissions of contributed papers or works in progress in the three main areas covered by the invited panels but will also accept contributions on other topics related to privacy and identity in information technology.  The three main areas for submission are:

• Data mining and aggregation

• RFID and location tracking

• Biometrics & face recognition

The Symposium will feature two keynote presentations, three panels of invited speakers composed of leading technologists and leading thinkers about law and policy, and parallel sessions of contributed extended abstracts and works-in-progress on privacy-related technical and legal topics.  Each presentation in the parallel sessions will be allotted 20 minutes.  You should plan your presentation for no more than 15 minutes to allow time for discussion.  The contributed paper sessions will be divided into technical sessions and law and policy sessions. 

Many of the invited presentations will be published as part of a Symposium Book to be published by Kluwer Publishing after the symposium.  Some contributed papers may be selected for publication in the Symposium Book. Information about page limitations and format will be provided to those whose papers are selected for publication. We also plan to make presentations and extended abstracts available on the symposium's web site after the symposium, whether or not they are selected to be included in the book.
