Call for Participation – ACM SigComm2015 – Workshop on Ethics in
Networked Systems Research
Co-located with ACM SIGCOMM’15http://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2015/
August 21st 2015
London, UK
A full day workshop titled “Ethics in Networked Systems Research” will
be held at the ACM SIGCOMM 2015 in London. This multidisciplinary
workshop will bring together two distinct groups of researchers:
- Computer scientists, network scientists and other technical
researchers who are interested in the ethical and legal aspects of
their work;
- Researchers studying the various ethical, social scientific and
legal aspects of data-driven projects in the field of computer and
data communication networks.
This workshop seeks 1 to 4 page summaries, focussing on ethical
considerations of papers, publications and projects from the two
disciplines, for example:
- Technical research in the field of computer and data communication
networks that either operates in an ethical grey zone, collects and
processes personal data/personal identifiable information, or has been
rejected from another venue on ethical grounds;
- Ethical, social scientific or legal research that reflects on – or
aims to guide – technical research and projects in the field of
computer and data communication networks, especially an analysis to
minimise the potential harm whilst enabling a broad range of Internet
research to be conducted.
Selected authors and invited speakers will present their work, which
will be followed by a structured discussion. The workshop will also
facilitate an interactive session in which participants will split
into multidisciplinary groups and address emerging ethical dilemmas in
Internet measurement and information controls research, partly based
on the submitted summaries. This session will be informed by a website
(currently under development), that presents ethical guidelines for
the fields of Internet measurement and information control. Papers
submitted to this workshop will not be archived in the formal sense,
so authors can submit papers elsewhere, or submit summaries of
previously accepted papers.
