CALL FOR PAPERS/ABSTRACTS
 EXTENDED SUBMISSION DEADLINE: 24TH MAY 2018
 13th IFIP Summer School 2018 on Privacy and Identity Management
- Fairness, Accountability and Transparency in the Age of Big Data - 
Vienna, Austria, 20-24 August 2018
 https://www.ifip-summerschool.org/  Background and goals
 We are inviting contributions to this IFIP Summer School on Privacy 
and Identity Management from students who are at the stage of preparing 
a master or a PhD thesis as well as young researchers and practitioners. 
The school is interactive in character, and is composed of plenary 
lectures and workshops based around Master/PhD students’ presentations. 
The principle is to encourage young academic and industry entrants to 
the privacy and identity management world to share their own ideas, 
build up a collegial relationship with others, gain experience in making 
presentations, and potentially publish a paper through the resulting 
book proceedings.
This Summer School is a joint effort between the IFIP Working Groups 
9.2, 9.6/11.7, 11.6, and Special Interest Group 9.2.2,  of different 
European and national projects. The 2018 IFIP Summer School will bring 
together junior and senior researchers and practitioners from multiple 
disciplines to discuss important questions concerning privacy and 
identity management and related issues in a global environment subject 
to change. This Summer School is not a “taught course”: it does enable, 
however, students to gain credit points for presenting and attending, 
and their paper to be considered as a candidate for a Best Paper award.
 Basic elements
 The Summer School takes a holistic approach to society and technology 
and supports interdisciplinary exchange through keynote and plenary 
lectures, tutorials, workshops, and research paper presentations. In 
particular, participants’ contributions that combine technical, legal, 
regulatory, socio-economic, social or societal, political, ethical, 
anthropological, philosophical, historical, or psychological 
perspectives are welcome. The interdisciplinary character of the work is 
fundamental to the School.
The research paper presentations and the workshops focus on involving 
students, and on encouraging the publication of high-quality, thorough, 
research papers by students/young researchers. To this end, the School 
has a three-phase review process for submitted papers. In the first 
phase, submissions are short abstracts as a minimum (full papers are 
possible). Submissions within the scope of the call are selected for 
presentation at the School. For accepted submissions the full papers are 
to be submitted latest before the Summer School takes place and they 
appear in the (unreviewed) pre-proceedings. In a second review phase, 
the full papers are reviewed soon after the Summer School. The students 
are invited to resubmit their full papers, after they have revised them 
based on two sets of feedback: the discussions that took place at the 
Summer School, as well as a formal written review by programme committee 
members. In the third review phase, after the full papers are 
resubmitted, they are reviewed again for inclusion in the School’s 
proceedings which will be published by Springer.
Submissions by senior researchers and participants in European, 
national, or regional/community research projects are also very welcome, 
and are generally published in a separate section of the book volume.
 Submitting papers / abstracts
 The abstract submissions should contain a concise problem statement, 
an outline, and clear messages (they should not be about work ‘to be 
done’). On acceptance of the abstract, authors are to submit their full 
papers of up to 16 pages in length in Springer LNCS format. These 
versions of the papers will be made available to all participants in the 
Summer School pre-proceedings.
After the Summer School, authors will have the opportunity to revise and 
re-submit their full papers (again in Springer LNCS format, with a 
maximum of 16 pages). These versions should address the questions and 
discussions raised on the paper during the Summer School as well as in 
the detailed reviews provided by the Programme Committee members. These 
revised papers will be considered for publication in the Summer School 
proceedings published by Springer, the official IFIP publisher. The 
papers to be included in the final proceedings will again be reviewed 
and finally selected by the Summer School Programme Committee. Students 
are expected to try to publish their work in this volume.
 Call for Tutorials and Workshops
 The School also seeks contributions in the form of tutorials and 
workshop proposals from all disciplines (e.g. computer science, 
informatics, economics, ethics, law, psychology, sociology, history, 
political and other social sciences, surveillance studies, business and 
public management). The timelines for submission of these tutorials and 
workshops are the same as those of the student papers. Topics of 
interest include, but are not limited to: concepts, technologies and 
applications, design, enforcement mechanisms, effects, attitudes, and 
user practices.
Tutorials are expected to last one or two hours. Proposals should 
contain a short summary and state the level and background required for 
attendees to follow the tutorial.
Workshops are expected to last one or two hours and must generate short 
papers that recapitulate the outcome and the kinds of discussions raised 
in the School, for inclusion in the post-proceedings. Proposals should 
contain a short statement summarising the topic(s) to be discussed and 
the expected contributions from the audience members e.g. responding to 
a questionnaire or conducting a small experiment. Proposers should 
indicate whether any special equipment is needed for the workshop, such 
as audiovisual systems or computational equipment and support.
