PAMCO 2015 - Workshop on Privacy-Aware Mobile Computing (PAMCO) 2015

This workshop aims to bring together researchers from mobile computing and security/privacy communities to discuss topics related to the protection of privacy in mobile computing. We invite both theoretical contributions and implementation/experimentation papers. We especially encourage submissions that discuss privacy threats from emerging applications in mobile environments - e.g., location-based services, mobile apps, wearable computing, etc.
Submissions to the Regular Paper Track should not exceed 10 pages (US letter size) double column including figures, tables, and references in standard ACM format. Submissions to the Short Paper Track should not exceed 6 pages in the same format. Papers must be submitted electronically in printable pdf form.
We solicit papers related to the following non-exhaustive list of topics in wireless and mobile computing:
Foundations for privacy-aware mobile computing - e.g., key exchange, distribution and management
Location privacy
Privacy-preserving data collection
Privacy-preserving data aggregation and analytics
Privacy issues in wearable computing
Data analysis on traffic logs
Privacy issues in cellular networks, e.g., user identity management in LTE
Privacy issues in body-area networks
Emerging privacy threats from mobile apps
Privacy issues in near-field communication (NFC)
Bluetooth security and privacy
Secure and privacy-preserving cooperation
Jamming and counter measures
Capacity and security analysis of covert channels
