                       First International Conference on
      Digital Rights Management: Technologies, Issues, Challenges and Systems
                              Sydney, Australia
                          31 October - 2 November 2005

    This new conference series (abbreviated: DRMTICS, pronounced:
    "dramatics") seeks submissions from academia and industry describing
    novel research results that cover theoretical and practical advancements
    in all areas of DRM systems. The conference will serve as a broad
    multi-disciplinary forum for all DRM related issues. Of particular
    interest this year are rights expression languages, processes and
    methods for DRM applications, together with social, legal, usability,
    and business aspects of such systems. Alternative economic and incentive
    based models, their analysis, implementation and case studies are highly
    encouraged.

    Topics include but are not limited to:

      * DRM systems and architecture
      * ODRL, XrML and other rights expression languages
      * Usage monitoring and metering
      * Business and charging models for content distribution
      * Economic aspects of content distribution
      * Code obfuscation and software protection
      * Usability aspects of DRM systems
      * Concrete software patent cases
      * DRM law and policy issues
      * Fair use and copyright law issues
      * Content sharing and mobility
      * Privacy enhanced content distribution
      * Peer-to-peer systems for content distribution
      * MPEG-21, OMA and other standard activities for DRM
      * Security technologies (including, but not limited to, authorisation,
          encryption, tamper resistance and controlled access)
      * Watermarking, fingerprinting and content identification
      * Broadcast encryption and traitor tracing
      * Implementations and case studies of DRM systems
      * Web services for content distribution
      * Access control systems for digital rights management
      * Interoperability and accessibility
      * Electronic publication and digital libraries
      * Issues in distributed computer games

    Instructions for Authors

    Submissions must not substantially duplicate any published work that has
    appeared in a journal or conference proceedings. Parallel submissions of
    papers to journals, conferences or workshops that have proceedings will
    be a reason for automatic rejection.

    Submission Format

    The paper must be anonymous, with no author names, affiliations,
    acknowledgements, or obvious references. It should begin with a title, a
    short abstract, and a list of keywords. The length of the paper should
    not exceed 12 pages excluding bibliography and appendices, and 20 pages
    total using at least 11-point fonts and with reasonable margins. The
    introduction should summarise the contributions of the paper at a level
    appropriate for a non-specialist reader. Committee members are not
    required to read appendices; the paper should be intelligible without
    them. Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without
    consideration of their merits.

    Electronic Submission

    For a detailed description of the electronic submission procedure please
    visit http://www.titr.uow.edu.au/DRMTICS2005/submission/. Electronic
    submissions must conform to this procedure and be received by 15 July
    2005, 23:00 IST (Indian Standard Time). Other means of submission will
    not be honoured.

    Conference Proceedings

    We plan to publish the proceedings in Springer-Verlag=92s Lecture Notes in
    Computer Science (LNCS) Series (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/index.html)
