[Air-L] CfP: CHI 2011 Workshop ”Privacy for a Networked World”: Bridging Theory and Design

[Fred Stutzman]

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

CHI 2011 workshop:
”Privacy for a Networked World”: Bridging Theory and Design

http://networkedprivacy.wordpress.com/

As our lives are more commonly mediated by information technology, an
interactional perspective to how people find and construct privacy in
socio-technical interactions has proven effective as a starting point for
theoretical and empirical studies of privacy in everyday life in which online
interactions have a significant role.

Yet, there remain important open questions regarding how to translate results
based on this perspective into design practice. Addressing these questions
requires a greater sensitivity to when interactional privacy is applicable, a
better understanding of suitable research methods, and more effective means for
communicating results to the researcher and practitioner communities. The goal
of this workshop is to bring privacy theory and design together.

We seek participants from various domains for a multidisciplinary workshop to
share their knowledge and views of both the theory and design of interactional
privacy.

Position papers are invited on the following topics:
(1) Theoretical and empirical study of interactional privacy.
(2) Ways of designing for interactional privacy.

Submitted position papers will be peer-reviewed by a workshop committee. The
organizers will disseminate the results at the CHI conference and plan to submit
a proposal for a special issue in a relevant journal in response to an open Call
for Papers.

Interested parties should submit a position paper of 2-4 pages, in the CHI
Extended Abstracts format, to the EasyChair submission central at
http://tinyurl.com/networkedprivacy by Jan 14, 2011. At least one author of each
accepted paper must register for the workshop and for one or more days of the
CHI 2011 conference.
