The need for privacy-aware policies, regulations, and techniques has been widely recognized. This workshop discusses the problems of privacy in the global interconnected societies and possible solutions. The 2013 Workshop, held in conjunction with the ACM CCS conference, is the twelfth in a yearly forum for papers on all the different aspects of privacy in today's electronic society.
The workshop seeks submissions from academia and industry presenting novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of electronic privacy, as well as experimental studies of fielded systems. We encourage submissions from other communities such as law and business that present these communities' perspectives on technological issues. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
| anonymity, pseudonymity, and unlinkability | privacy and anonymity on the Web | privacy in mobile systems |
| crowdsourcing for privacy and security | privacy in cloud and grid systems | privacy in outsourced scenarios |
| data correlation and leakage attacks | privacy and confidentiality management | privacy policies |
| data security and privacy | privacy and data mining | privacy vs. security |
| electronic communication privacy | privacy in the digital business | privacy in social networks |
| economics of privacy | privacy in the electronic records | privacy threats |
| information dissemination control | privacy enhancing technologies | privacy and virtual identity |
| models, languages, and techniques for big data protection | privacy in health care and public administration | public records and personal privacy |
| personally identifiable information | privacy and human rights | user profiling |
| privacy-aware access control | privacy metrics | wireless privacy |
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Regular submissions should be at most 10 pages in the ACM double-column format including bibliography, but excluding well-marked appendices, and at most 12 pages total. Committee members are not required to read the appendices, and so the paper should be intelligible without them. Submissions should not be anonymized. The workshop will also consider short submissions of up to 4 pages for results that are preliminary or that simply require few pages to describe. Authors of regular submitted papers will indicate at the time of submission whether they would like their paper to also be considered for publication as a short paper (4 proceedings pages).
Submissions are to be made to the submission web site at http://www.easychair.org You will be requested to upload the file of your paper (in PDF format only). Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits. Papers must be received by the deadline of July 29, 2013 to be considered. Notification of acceptance or rejection will be sent to authors by August 23, 2013. The camera ready must be prepared by August 30, 2013 (firm). Proceedings of the workshop will be published by ACM on a CD, available to the workshop attendees. Papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library, with a specific ISBN. Each accepted paper must be presented by an author, who will have to be registered by the early-bird registration deadline.
