WORKSHOP: PRIVACY IN AN ERA OF BIG DATA-Temple University; May 20-21, 2015

大数据引发了人们对实践的极大兴趣。各种公共和私营部门组织正在对大数据进行巨额投资，他们有理由相信数据分析的创新可以在公共健康和安全，经济竞争力和消费者福利等领域带来巨大利益。然而，大数据辩论的一个关键方面是公司、恶意个人和政府侵犯隐私的可能性。研讨会的总体目标是制定一个前瞻性的研究议程，探讨如何克服大数据和隐私之间的权衡，在不牺牲人们个人隐私权的情况下有效地挖掘大数据的潜力。研讨会探讨了隐私如何在大数据时代受到影响，重点是对个人，公司以及政府和非营利组织的影响。通过邀请来自法律、社会、行为、经济和计算机科学以及商业等多个不同视角的杰出参与者，目标是促进跨学科方法来理解和减轻大数据与隐私之间的权衡。该研讨会旨在使大数据能够改变组织，市场，政府，私营和公共部门以及整个社会，同时尊重人们对其私人信息的权利。 该研讨会旨在推动对大数据和隐私的多学科科学研究，并旨在成为学术界，工业界和政府之间跨学科合作的桥梁，重点是学术严谨性和现实世界的相关性。

Big Data has sparked great interest in practice. Public and private sector organizations of all kinds are making huge investments in Big Data in the well-justified belief that innovations in data analytics can bring enormous benefits in such areas as public health and safety, economic competitiveness and consumer welfare. However, a key aspect of the debate on Big Data is the potential for privacy breach by corporations, malicious individuals, and governments. The workshop's overall goal is to develop a forward-looking research agenda on how to overcome the tradeoff between Big Data and privacy to effectively pursue the potential of big data without sacrificing people's individual privacy rights. The workshop examines how privacy may be impacted in the Big Data era with emphasis on implications for individuals, firms, as well as government and non-profit organizations. By inviting prominent participants from several diverse perspectives, including law, social, behavioral, economic and computer sciences, and business, the goal is to foster a cross-disciplinary approach into understanding and mitigating the tradeoff between big data and privacy. The workshop aims to enable big data to transform organizations, markets, government, the private and public sector, and society in general, while respecting people's rights to their private information. The workshop seeks to advance a multi-disciplinary scientific inquiry on big data and privacy and aims to serve as a bridge for inter-disciplinary collaboration among academia, industry, and government with emphasis on academic rigor and real-world relevance.
