The

Society
To
be held at Karlstad
University, Sweden,

Introduction
The
increasing diversity of Information Communication Technologies
and their equally diverse range of uses in personal,
professional and official capacities raise challenging
questions of identity in a variety of contexts. Each
communication exchange contains an identifier which may, or
may not, be intended by the parties involved. What constitutes
an identity, how do new technologies affect identity, how do
we manage identities in a globally networked information
society?
The
theme of this Summer School will be on Identity Management in
relation to current and future technologies in a variety of
contexts. IFIP takes a holistic approach to technology. FIDIS
supports interdisciplinary exchange. So participants’
contributions combining technical, social, ethical or legal
perspectives are welcome. Topics of interest include:
Identity
management, security, profiling and customer relation
management, advanced identity documents, ID related crime,
RFID, tracking technologies, biometrics, privacy, anonymity
and pseudonymity, surveillance, data
retention, knowledge management, impact on social
exclusion/digital divide/cultural issues …
etc.
All
the sessions will start with an introduction by an invited
speaker, followed by parallel workshops in the morning and
afternoon. The workshops will consist of short presentations
based on the contributions that have been submitted by the
participants, followed by active discussion. The aim of the
Summer School is to encourage a stimulating discourse between
all participants – be they new researchers or experienced
academics. Contributions will be selected based on an extended
abstract review by the Summer School Programme Committee.
Accepted papers will apply an interdisciplinary view or
support it and will be published on the Summer School web site
before the event. Selected papers will be published in
proceedings after the Summer School.
