--- Proceedings: ACM printed form, ACM CD-ROM and ACM digital library -- Aims and scope of the TRECK track: Computational models of trust and online reputation mechanisms have been gaining momentum. The ACM SAC 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 TRECK tracks attracted researchers from both academia and industry who have joined an online group at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/trustcomp/ The goal of the ACM SAC 2009 TRECK track remains to review the set of applications that benefit from the use of computational trust and online reputation. Computational trust has been used in reputation systems, risk management, collaborative filtering, social/business networking services, dynamic coalitions, virtual organisations and even combined with trusted computing hardware modules. The TRECK track covers all computational trust/reputation applications, especially those used in real-world applications.

-- The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Trust management, reputation management and identity management * Mobile trust, context-aware trust * Trust-based collaborative applications * Trade-off between privacy and trust * Combined computational trust and trusted computing * Trust metrics assessment and threat analysis * Technical trust evaluation and certification * Evidence gathering and management * Applicability in large-scale, open and decentralised environments * User-studies and user interfaces of computational trust and online
 * Recommender and reputation systems
 * Pervasive computational trust and use of context-awareness
 * Web 2.0 reputation and trust
 * Automated collaboration and trust negotiation
 * Trust/risk-based security frameworks
 * Tangible guarantees given by formal models of trust and risk
 * Trust in peer-to-peer and open source systems
 * Impacts of social networks on computational trust
 * Real-world applications, running prototypes and advanced simulations
 * Legal and economic aspects related to the use of trust and reputation engines
 * reputation applications

Submission guidelines are posted on the TRECK 2009 Web site (http://www.trustcomp.org/treck/ which always contains the latest updates. Authors are invited to submit full papers about original and unpublished research. A paper cannot be submitted to more than one track. We would like to encourage the submission of industrial experience reports and reports of innovative applications. The body of each paper should not exceed 5,000 words. Submissions should be properly anonymized to facilitate blind reviewing. At least three reviewers will be assigned to each submission to the TRECK track. -- Conference Venue:
