The 15th Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium
June 30 – July 2, 2015
Philadelphia, PA, USA
@PET_Symposium
The annual Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium (PETS) brings together privacy and anonymity experts from around the world to discuss recent advances and new perspectives. PETS addresses the design and realization of privacy services for the Internet and other data systems and communication networks.
New starting this year: Papers will undergo a journal-style reviewing process and be published in the Proceedings on Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PoPETs). PoPETs, a scholarly journal for timely research papers on privacy, has been established as a way to improve reviewing and publication quality while retaining the highly successful PETS community event. PoPETs will be published by De Gruyter Open, the world's second largest publisher of Open Access academic content, and part of the De Gruyter group, which has over 260 years of publishing history.
Authors can submit papers to one of several submission deadlines during the year. Papers are provided with major/minor revision decisions on a predictable schedule, where we endeavor to assign the same reviewers to major revisions. Authors can address the concerns of reviewers in their revision and rebut reviewer comments before a final decision on acceptance is made. Papers accepted for publication by May 15th will be presented at that year's symposium. Note that accepted papers must be presented at PETS.
The four deadlines for the 2016 volume of PoPETs are in Apr 2015, Aug 2015, Nov 2015, and Feb 2016.
