Held in conjunction with the PET Symposium, HotPETs is a forum for hot new ideas and perspectives in privacy. We aim at collecting fresh privacy related questions and technical solutions to be presented to the audience of the PET symposium for discussion.

HotPETs provides a unique chance to receive feedback from privacy experts and stimulate future research in privacy. Accepted papers will not be included in the PETS proceedings so as not to preclude later publication of a full paper, but they will be made available in electronic format during the workshop to fuel discussions.

The nature of HotPETs’ discussion-oriented format is especially suited to works in progress with promising preliminary results. However, submissions of mature works seeking dissemination and feedback from the community are also encouraged.

Suggested topics include but are not restricted to:

* Interdisciplinary privacy: usability, economics, legal issues, cultural perspectives
* Privacy in databases
* Privacy-preserving cryptography
* Privacy in social networks
* Privacy and identity management
* Anonymous communications
* Location privacy
* Privacy in e-Health systems
* Privacy-enhanced access control and authentication

Submission guidelines can be found at https://research.cs.umn.edu/hotpets/
11pt font, 15 page maximum, shorter submissions preferred. .pdf and .doc accepted.
