FOCI '11 seeks to bring together researchers and practitioners from both 
technology and policy backgrounds to share their experience in this 
field of study. We encourage submissions of short position papers or 
work-in-progress reports on a wide variety of topics of interest, 
including but not limited to the following areas:

* Evaluation or analysis of existing anti-censorship systems
* Comparisons of existing performance-measurement tools that might be 
  used to detect tampering (e.g., violations of "network neutrality")
* Studies and findings on censorship or tampering from field deployments 
  (e.g., what content various countries are currently censoring, the 
  extent to which ISPs are degrading certain types of content)
* Analysis of the economic impact of censorship
* Metrics for deniability and robustness
* Performance metrics and benchmarks for detecting content tampering or 
  performance degradation
* Detecting and measuring the censorship of search results
* The design of network protocols and topologies that resist tampering 
  or censorship
* Techniques to counter mass surveillance
* Policy-related issues

For more details on the submission process, please see the complete Call
