Call for Papers
The need to consider privacy has been widely recognized in society at large, with resulting impact on government, commerce, education, health care, entertainment, and other sectors. This workshop discusses the problems related to privacy in the global interconnected society and their possible solutions. The 2008 Workshop, held in conjunction with the ACM CCS conference, is the seventh 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 confidentiality management |
business models with privacy requirements |
privacy in electronic records |
protection from correlation, inference, and linking attacks |

Paper Submissions
Papers must be submitted electronically at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wpes2008.
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Submissions should be at most 15 pages excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices (using single-column, 11-point font and reasonable margins on letter-size paper), and at most 20 pages total. Committee members are not required to read the appendices, and so the paper should be intelligible without them. Submissions are not required to be anonymized. Authors of submitted papers will indicate at the time of submission whether they would like their paper to also be considered for publication as an abstract (4 proceedings pages).
Papers are to be submitted electronically via the online submission system. Before you submit
the body of your paper, please submit the paper's abstract (1-2 paragraphs) through the online submission system; we will use
these abstracts to help in assigning reviewers to papers during the week before the paper is due.
The online submission form also allows you to upload a file containing your paper (in PDF or portable postscript format).
Do NOT upload files formatted for word processing packages (e.g., Microsoft Word or WordPerfect files).
Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits.
Authors of accepted full papers must guarantee that their paper will be presented at the workshop. Accepted papers will be published by the ACM in a conference proceedings.
