### Call for Papers - DIM 2011 ACM SIGSAC 

The Seventh ACM Workshop on Digital Identity Management 
October 21, 2011, Chicago, IL, USA. Collocated with ACM CCS2011 
http://www.nttmcl.com/dim2011/ 


### ?Identity on the Move? 
-------------------------------------
This workshop will explore crucial issues concerning interoperable 
identity management 
technologies for the information society. With the growing spectrum of 
identity-enabled 
client devices ? ranging from electronic ID cards, Smartphone?s, TV sets, 
Tablets, PCs all 
the way to server backend and cloud services ? identity management plays a 
critical role 
for the overall security, privacy and success of the emerging paradigms. 
Identity 
management is an interdisciplinary endeavor for maintaining the integrity 
of identities 
through their life cycle in order to make the identities available to 
services in a secure 
and privacy protected manner. Digital identities play increasingly 
important roles as our 
society depends more and more on services provided over the Internet. For 
example, solid 
identity management practices are essential for implementing social 
welfare (e.g., 
healthcare and e-government), enabling secure service offering (e.g., 
cloud computing and 
SaaS), personalizing users? experiences (e.g., e-commerce and 
entertainment), and 
connecting people over networks (e.g., social networking and mobile 
communications). 

Comprehensive solutions to digital identity management, therefore, require 
addressing 
multiple challenges and striking the best balance between usability, 
security, and 
privacy. In addition, interoperability is crucial because an increasing 
number of identity 
solutions are being proposed, taking different approaches with different 
goals. Existing 
solutions are not necessarily interoperable or complementary ? and 
sometimes overlap. 
Moreover, they may not integrate well with the legacy systems that 
constitute majority of 
the state of the art. It is important to lay foundations for a holistic 
understanding of 
problem areas and establish guidelines, methodologies and tools to achieve 

interoperability between different solutions to foster healthy progressive 
adoption by 
industries and users. 


### Topics 
---------------- 
The workshop seeks submissions from diverse communities, such as social 
networking, open 
source projects, standardization fora, governments, system & security 
administrators, 
software engineers, and corporate & academic researchers. Topics of 
interest include, but 
are not limited to: 

    - Novel approaches to identity management 
    - Privacy-enhancing technologies 
    - Identity management for mobile and ubiquitous computing 
    - Identity in cloud computing 
    - Identity in social networks 
    - Identity solutions for specific areas (e.g., healthcare, government, 
and education) 
    - Identity theft prevention in face of malware and phishing 
    - Applied cryptography for Identity Management 
    - (Privacy-preserving) identity profiling and fraud detection 
    - Identity discovery, life cycle and governance 
    - Identity user experience 
    - Attribute based authentication and access control 
    - User-centric identity management 
    - Ad-hoc, de-centralized and reputation-based identity 
    - Biometric Identity 
    - Experience reports on identity management practices 

The goal of this workshop is to share the latest findings, identify key 
challenges, 
inspire debates, and foster collaboration between industries and academia 
towards 
interoperable identity service infrastructures. 


### Important Dates 
----------------------------- 
Abstract Submission:  June 6th [Optional] 
Full Submission:           July 6th 
Notification Due:           August 4th 
Final Version Due:       August 16th 


### Submission Instructions 
----------------------------------------- 
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap with papers that have been 
published or 
that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with 
proceedings. Papers 
should be at most 10 pages, using at least 10.5-point font and reasonable 
margins on A4 or 
US letter-size paper (8.5 inch x 11 inch). Committee members are not 
required to read the 
appendices, and so submissions should be intelligible without them. Each 
submission should 
start with the title, abstract, and names and contact information of 
authors. The 
introduction should give background and summarize the contributions of the 
paper at a 
level appropriate for a non-specialist reader. Authors of accepted papers 
must guarantee 
that their paper will be presented at the workshop.
