From: Conference on Computers, Freedom, and Privacy
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
CFP2001: The Eleventh Conference on Computers, Freedom and Privacy
Hyatt Regency Cambridge Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
March 6 - 9, 2001
CALL FOR PROPOSALS
The Program Committee of the Conference on Computers, Freedom, and Privacy (CFP2001) invites your participation and proposals for the eleventh annual CFP, which will be held at the Hyatt Regency in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, on March 6 - 9, 2001.
CFP2001 is sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).
CFP is the leading policy conference for exploring the impact of the Internet, computers and communications technologies on society. For more than a decade, CFP has anticipated the policy trends and issues and shaped the public debate on the future of privacy and freedom in the online world. Each year at CFP, key members of the technical, government, business, education, non-profit, legal, law enforcement, security, media and hacker/cracker communities gather together to address the cutting edge questions in computing, freedom and privacy. CFP themes are broad and forward-looking. CFP explores what will be, not what has been.
Since this CFP will be held in 2001, the theme is the future of computing, freedom and privacy, including the convergence of information and communication technologies with other advanced technology areas and the new challenges to freedom and privacy that they engender throughout the world. The Internet is a global phenomenon with significant local impacts. We encourage innovative and imaginative thinking on these topics and invite you to submit proposals for CFP2001 conference activities. Of particular interest are proposals on:
GOVERNANCE, including impact of the Internet on governance; impact of governance on the Internet; ICANN; voting; standards; antitrust and competition policy; new models for governance; and stakeholders in governance.
SOCIAL IMPACTS, such as the relationship between the individual and her communities.
INDIVIDUAL AUTONOMY AND INTEGRITY, particularly human rights; freedom of expression; censorship; free speech and access; freedom of association; freedom of movement; and exploration of the roles of non-identifiability, pseudonymity, and anonymity.
CONVERGENCE of information and communication technologies (ICT); of ICT and content; of ICT with other advanced technology areas, including biotechnology, biology and materials science; and related industry mergers, consolidations and activities.
DIGITAL DIVIDE in the face of the growth of the ubiquitous information environment; access to the network infrastructure; access to information; broadband policy; education policy; and related telecommunications, cable, intellectual property and freedom of information (FOIA) rules.
PRIVACY, including the growth and role of the chief privacy officer; privacy as the default; US legislation; international developments and trends; and an international privacy convention.
INTERNATIONAL ISSUES, especially the emerging issues of global privacy protection; international principles of human rights; security of information systems; intellectual property; objectionable content; cybercrime; jurisdiction; regulation; and legislation.
ELECTRONIC COMMERCE, including consumer protection; and the impact of payment systems, regulations, and technical standards on personal freedom and privacy.
We encourage proposals not only on these subjects, but also on the border areas between these topics, such as intellectual property protection and privacy.
We strongly encourage proposals that involve leading experts, innovators, policymakers, and thinkers.
