Subject: CALL FOR PAPERS - COMPUTERS, PRIVACY & DATA PROTECTION 25-27 January 2011-         BRUSSELS


*GENERAL*

Computers, Privacy and Data Protection - CPDP 2011 is *a three-day
conference* organised by academics coming from all over Europe, with the
ambition of becoming Europe's most important forum for academics,
practitioners, policy-makers and civil society where they can meet, exchange
ideas and discuss emerging issues of information technology, privacy, data
protection and law.

CPDP is organised by the Vrije Universiteit Brussel, the Université de
Namur, the Universiteit van Tilburg, the Institut National de Recherche en
Informatique et en Automatique and the Fraunhofer Institut für System und
Innovationsforschung.

*SUBJECT*

CPDP has progressively been growing since its inception both in terms of
speakers, participants and panels and the ambition for its upcoming fourth
consecutive edition is higher than ever. Determined to exceed the positive
feedbacks received from speakers and participants, which range from
'excellent' to 'brilliant agenda keeping', this year's conference offers
twelve panels, a pre-conference, a philosophy reading-panel and a
PhD-evening. The previous edition of the PhD evening proved to be one of the
most intellectually stimulating moments of the entire conference, with the
active participation of key speakers and participants of the conference.

The regular panels include both the presentation of stakeholders' agenda and
intense debates around key issues in the field of privacy, data protection,
technology and society. In addition, specific sessions will be dedicated to
the issues of e-health, surveillance and law-enforcement, privacy in on-line
service models and data breaches notifications. Finally, the philosophical
panel will focus on privacy and due process after the computational turn.

*CALL FOR PAPERS*

The CPDP Scientific Committee invites position and academic papers from PhD
students, post-docs and early career researchers in the fields of law,
political sciences, social sciences and computer sciences for the PhD

*MULTIDISCIPLINARY PRIVACY AWARD*

Privacy research needs to be pursued by the researchers representing diverse
disciplines in technology, natural and social science as well as economics,
law and political studies. To highlight the importance of multidisciplinary
research in privacy, a multidisciplinary privacy award for the best
multi-disciplinary paper in privacy will be debuted at the conference.
Outstanding papers authored by researchers from diverse disciplines, such as
law, computer sciences, social sciences or economic sciences, will be
considered for the multidisciplinary privacy award by an international award
committee. The prize consists of a cheque for $1000 and will be awarded
during the CPDP conference. In addition the winners will also be funded to
attend the conference. For the paper to be considered for the award it has
to be a multidisciplinary paper on privacy and/or data protection accepted
for publication or published in 2010. Papers submitted and accepted for the
CPDP conference can also be marked by the authors to be considered for the
multidisciplinary privacy award. Please submit your papers and contact
