Computers, Privacy and Data Protection 2017 – The Age of Intelligent
Machines

Call for papers 2017
http://www.cpdpconferences.org/callforpapers.html

CPDP is an annual three-day conference devoted to privacy and data
protection. The 10th edition of CPDP will be held on 25-27 January 2017
in Brussels. Whilst a number of speakers are specifically invited by the
conference, several slots remain open to application through an annual
call for papers. The CPDP2017 Call for Papers is addressed to all
researchers who wish to present their papers at the next Computers,
Privacy and Data Protection conference.

The call is split into two different tracks. The first is dedicated to
experienced researchers, while the second welcomes PhD students and
junior researchers. Contributions are welcome from all disciplines with
perspectives on the themes of the conference. The dual-track structure
of the CPDP 2017 Call for Papers aims to meet the increasing interest of
researchers – from all levels and from multiple disciplines – in CPDP
and their expectations in terms of academic feedback and exchange.
Please submit your contribution through the EasyChair conference system
by following this link. https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cpdp2017

RELEVANT FIELDS AND TOPICS

The CPDP Scientific Committee invites papers in the fields of law,
social sciences, philosophy and computer sciences (as well as other
relevant fields). Multidisciplinary papers are particularly welcome. In
particular, this call aims to reach researchers whose works relate to
new technologies, privacy and data protection. Selected researchers will
have the valuable opportunity to present their papers in the conference
academic sessions. The main theme highlighted this year is Artificial
Intelligence, but we welcome any original topics related to the general
themes of the conference and especially encourage technology-focused and
interdisciplinary submissions.

Follow this link for more information about the topics presented at
previous editions of CPDP.

In case of doubt regarding the suitability of a contribution for the
conference, please contact Lorenzo Dalla Corte
