PRIVACY IN STATISTICAL DATABASES 2014 (PSD 2014)
================================================
***PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS: SUBMISSION DEADLINE MAY 11, 2014***
Eivissa, Balearic Islands, Sep. 17-19, 2014
http://unescoprivacychair.urv.cat/psd2014
1. AIMS AND GOALS
-----------------
Privacy in statistical databases is about finding
tradeoffs to the tension between the increasing
societal and economical demand for accurate information
and the legal and ethical obligation to protect
the privacy of individuals and enterprises which are
the respondents providing the statistical data.
In the case of statistical databases,
the motivation for respondent privacy is one of survival:
statistical agencies or survey institutes cannot expect to
collect accurate information from individual or
corporate respondents unless these feel the privacy
of their responses is guaranteed.
Beyond respondent privacy, there are two additional privacy
dimensions to be considered: privacy for the data owners
(organizations owning or gathering the data, who would not
like to share the data they have collected at great expense)
and privacy for the users (those who submit queries to the
database and would like their analyses to stay private).
"Privacy in Statistical Databases 2014" (PSD 2014) is
a conference sponsored and organized by
the UNESCO Chair in Data Privacy (http://unescoprivacychair.urv.cat)
with proceedings published by Springer-Verlag in Lecture
Notes in Computer Science. It purpose is to attract
world-wide, high-level research in statistical database privacy.
PSD 2014 is a successor to
PSD 2012 (Palermo, Sep. 26-28, 2012,
http://unescoprivacychair.urv.cat/psd2012),
PSD 2010 (Corfu, Sep. 22-24, 2010,
http://unescoprivacychair.urv.cat/psd2010),
PSD 2008 (Istanbul, Sep. 24-26, 2008,
http://unescoprivacychair.urv.cat/psd2008),
PSD 2006 (Rome, Dec. 13-15, 2006,
http://crises-deim.urv.cat/psd2006)
and PSD 2004 (Barcelona, June 9-11, 2004,
http://crises-deim.urv.cat/psd2004),
all with proceedings published by Springer in LNCS 7556,
LNCS 6344, LNCS 5262, LNCS 4302 and LNCS 3050, respectively.
Those six PSD conferences follow a tradition of
high-quality technical conferences on SDC which started with
"Statistical Data Protection-SDP'98", held in Lisbon in 1998
and with proceedings published by OPOCE, and continued
with the AMRADS project SDC Workshop, held in Luxemburg
in 2001 and with proceedings published in Springer LNCS 2316.
Like the aforementioned preceding conferences, PSD 2014 originates
in Europe, but wishes to stay a worldwide event in database
privacy and SDC. Thus,
contributions and attendees from overseas are welcome.
