* Call for Research Papers

Papers offering novel research contributions are solicited for submission. Accepted papers will be presented at the symposium and published by the ACM in the symposium proceedings. In addition to the regular research track, this year SACMAT will again host the special track -- "Blue Sky/Vision Track". Researchers are invited to submit papers describing promising new ideas and challenges of interest to the community as well as access control needs emerging from other fields. We are particularly looking for potentially disruptive and new ideas which can shape the research agenda for the next 10 years. We also encourage submissions to the newly introduced “Work-in-progress Track” to present ideas that may have not been completely developed and experimentally evaluated.

* Regular Track Paper Submission and Format
Papers must be written in English. Authors are required to use the ACM format for papers, using the two-column SIG Proceedings Template (the sigconf template for LaTex) available in the following link: https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions
The length of the paper in the proceedings format must not exceed twelve US letter pages formatted for 8.5" x 11" paper and be no more than 5MB in size. It is the responsibility of the authors to ensure that their submission will print easily on simple default configurations. The submission must be anonymous, so information that might identify the authors - including author names, affiliations, acknowledgements, or obvious self-citations - must be excluded. It is the authors' responsibility to ensure that their anonymity is preserved when citing their own work. Submissions should be made to the EasyChair conference management system by the paper submission deadline of February 15, 2021 11:59 pm AOE:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sacmat21

All submissions must contain a significant original contribution. That is, submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal, conference, or workshop. In particular, simultaneous submission of the same work is not allowed. Wherever appropriate, relevant related work, including that of the authors, must be cited. Submissions that are not accepted as full papers may be invited to appear as short papers. At least one author from each accepted paper much register for the conference prior to the camera-ready deadline.

* Blue Sky Track Paper Submission and Format
All submissions to this track should be in the same format as for the regular track, but the length must not exceed ten US letter pages, and the submission are not required to be anonymized (optional). Submissions to this track should be submitted to the EasyChair conference management system by the same deadline as for the regular track.

* Work-in-progress Track Paper Submission and Format
Authors are invited to submit papers in the newly introduced work-in-progress track. This track is introduced for (junior) authors, ideally Ph.D. and Masters students, to obtain early, constructive feedback on their work. Submissions in this track should follow the same format as for the regular track papers while limiting the total number of pages to six US letter pages. Paper submitted in this track should be anonymized and can be submitted to the EasyChair conference management system by the same deadline as for the regular track.

* Call for Lightning Talk
Participants are invited to submit proposals for 5-minute lightning talks describing recently published results, work in progress, wild ideas, etc. Lightning talks are a new feature of SACMAT, introduced this year to partially replace the informal sharing of ideas at in-person meetings. Submit at https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=sacmat21 by May 28, 2021 (the early registration deadline). Notification of acceptance on June 2, 2021.

* Call for Posters
SACMAT 2021 will include a poster session to promote discussion of ongoing projects among researchers in the field of access control and computer security. Posters can cover preliminary or exploratory work with interesting ideas, or research projects in early stages with promising results in all aspects of access control and computer security. Authors interested in displaying a poster must submit a poster abstract in the same format as for the regular track, but the length must not exceed three US letter pages, and the submission should not be anonymized. The title should start with "Poster:". Accepted poster abstracts will be included in the conference proceedings.

Submissions for posters should be emailed to the poster chair, Dr. Diego Perino (Diego.perino@telefonica.com), by Apr 19, 2021, 5PM PDT. The subject line should include "SACMAT 2021 Poster:" followed by the poster title.

* Call for Demos
A demonstration proposal should clearly describe (1) the overall architecture of the system or technology to be demonstrated, and (2) one or more demonstration scenarios that describe how the audience, interacting with the demonstration system or the demonstrator, will gain an understanding of the underlying technology. Submissions will be evaluated based on the motivation of the work behind the use of the system or technology to be demonstrated and its novelty. The subject line should include "SACMAT 2021 Demo:" followed by the demo title.

Demonstration proposals should be in the same format as for the regular track, but the length must not exceed four US letter pages, and the submission should not be anonymized. A two-page description of the demonstration will be included in the conference proceedings. Submissions should be emailed to the Demonstrations Chair, Dr. Diego Perino (Diego.perino@telefonica.com), by Apr 19, 2021, 5pm PDT.

* Financial Conflict of Interest (COI) Disclosure:
In the interests of transparency and to help readers form their own judgements of potential bias, ACM SACMAT requires authors and PC members to declare any competing financial and/or non-financial interests in relation to the work described.

* Definition
For the purposes of this policy, competing interests are defined as financial and non-financial interests that could directly undermine, or be perceived to undermine the objectivity, integrity and value of a publication, through a potential influence on the judgements and actions of authors with regard to objective data presentation, analysis and interpretation.

Financial competing interests include any of the following:
Funding: Research support (including salaries, equipment, supplies, and other expenses) by organizations that may gain or lose financially through this publication. A specific role for the funding provider in the conceptualization, design, data collection, analysis, decision to publish, or preparation of the manuscript, should be disclosed.

Employment: Recent (while engaged in the research project), present or anticipated employment by any organization that may gain or lose financially through this publication.

Personal financial interests: Ownership or contractual interest in stocks or shares of companies that may gain or lose financially through publication; consultation fees or other forms of remuneration (including reimbursements for attending symposia) from organizations that may gain or lose financially; patents or patent applications (awarded or pending) filed by the authors or their institutions whose value may be affected by publication. For patents and patent applications, disclosure of the following information is requested: patent applicant (whether author or institution), name of inventor(s), application number, status of application, specific aspect of manuscript covered in patent application.

It is difficult to specify a threshold at which a financial interest become significant, but note that many US universities require faculty members to disclose interests exceeding $10,000 or 5% equity in a company. Any such figure is necessarily arbitrary, so we offer as one possible practical alternative guideline: "Any undeclared competing financial interests that could embarrass you were they to become publicly known after your work was published."

We do not consider diversified mutual funds or investment trusts to constitute a competing financial interest. Also, for employees in non-executive or leadership positions, we do not consider financial interest related to stocks or shares in their company to constitute a competing financial interest, as long as they are publishing under their company affiliation.

Non-financial competing interests: Non-financial competing interests can take different forms, including personal or professional relations with organizations and individuals. We would encourage authors and PC members to declare any unpaid roles or relationships that might have a bearing on the publication process. Examples of non-financial competing interests include (but are not limited to):
• Unpaid membership in a government or non-governmental organization
• Unpaid membership in an advocacy or lobbying organization
• Unpaid advisory position in a commercial organization
• Writing or consulting for an educational company
• Acting as an expert witness

* Conference Code of Conduct and Etiquette

ACM SACMAT will follow the ACM Policy Against Harassment at ACM Activities. Please familiarize yourself with the ACM Policy Against Harassment and guide to Reporting Unacceptable Behavior.

* AUTHORS TAKE NOTE
The official publication date is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of your conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. (For those rare conferences whose proceedings are published in the ACM Digital Library after the conference is over, the official publication date remains the first day of the conference.)
