Call for Posters and Discussion Sessions Symposium On Usable Privacy and Security (SOUPS 2007) - July 18-20, Pittsburgh, PA http://cups.cs.cmu.edu/soups/2007/

SOUPS posters and discussion session proposals are due May 18. See details below.

SOUPS registration is now open. The early registration deadline in June 5. A preliminary program will be posted soon.

POSTERS

We seek poster abstracts describing recent or ongoing research or experience in all areas of usable privacy and security. Submission of late breaking results and work in progress is especially encouraged. Submissions should follow the same formatting instructions as refereed papers, but should be at most two pages and should not include categories and subject descriptors, general terms, or keywords. They should include a copyright block. Accepted poster abstracts will appear in the ACM Digital Library as part of the ACM International Conference Proceedings Series. Please follow the final submission formatting instructions when preparing your poster abstract to avoid the need to revise poster abstracts after acceptance decisions are made. In addition, SOUPS will include a poster session in which authors will exhibit their posters. Note, poster abstracts should be formatted like short papers, not like posters. Authors of accepted posters will be sent information about how to prepare and format posters for the conference.

DISCUSSION SESSIONS

SOUPS will feature parallel, moderated breakout sessions (similar to Birds of a feather sessions) in which symposium participants will discuss a topic related to usable privacy and security. These sessions may include a brief introduction to the topic by the moderator, but otherwise will not include formal presentations. Discussion session topics may include, but are not limited to, definitions or metrics, design critiques, research agendas, or frameworks for collaborative research. We seek proposals for discussion session topics. Proposals must include a one paragraph statement of the topic to be discussed and a one paragraph bio of each proposer that describes their experience or interest in the topic. Optionally, proposers may submit up to two pages of background material that can be distributed to participants and posted on the SOUPS website. Authors of accepted proposals will be expected to moderate their discussion session and provide a brief report on their session for posting on the SOUPS web site after the symposium.
