CALL FOR PAPERS -- SOUPS 2008 Symposium On Usable Privacy and Security July 23-25, 2008 Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA USA http://cups.cs.cmu.edu/SOUPS/ The 2008 Symposium on Usable Privacy and Security (SOUPS) will bring together an interdisciplinary group of researchers and practitioners in human computer interaction, security, and privacy. The program will feature technical papers, a poster session, panels and invited talks, discussion sessions, and in-depth sessions (workshops and tutorials). Detailed information about technical paper submissions appears below. For information about other submissions please see the SOUPS web site http://cups.cs.cmu.edu/soups/2008/cfp.html. TECHNICAL PAPERS We invite authors to submit original papers describing research or experience in all areas of usable privacy and security. Topics include, but are not limited to: * innovative security or privacy functionality and design, * new applications of existing models or technology, * field studies of security or privacy technology, * usability evaluations of security or privacy features or security testing of usability features, and * lessons learned from deploying and using usable privacy and security features. Papers need to describe the purpose and goals of the work completed to date, cite related work, show how the work effectively integrates usability and security or privacy, and clearly indicate the innovative aspects of the work or lessons learned as well as the contribution of the work to the field. Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Accepted papers will appear in the ACM Digital Library as part of the ACM International Conference Proceedings Series. The technical papers committee will select an accepted paper to receive the SOUPS 2008 best paper award. Papers may be up to 12 pages in length including bibliography, appendices, and figures, using the SOUPS proceedings template on the SOUPS web site. All submissions must be in PDF format and should not be blinded. In addition, you must cut and paste an abstract of no more than 300 words onto the submission form. Submit your paper using the electronic submissions page for the SOUPS 2008 conference (http://cups.cs.cmu.edu/soups/2008/submit.html). A successful submission will display a web page confirming it, and a confirmation email is sent to the corresponding author. Please make sure you receive that confirmation email when you submit, and follow the directions in that email if you require any follow up. Technical paper submissions will close at midnight, US East Coast time, the evening of Friday, February 29. Authors will be notified of technical paper acceptance by April 21, and camera ready final versions of technical papers are due May 26.
