                Net-Based Payment Mechanisms

            Visiting Fellow, Department of Computer Science

4. Title:    Net-Based Payment Mechanisms

5. Target Audience: honours students and above, and final-year students
		    who have an interest in the area

6. Abstract:

Direct, adequately secure payment over the Internet has been all the
rage for some time now. There are many (proto-)products, and many
issues arising from their use, but there's far more hype and confusion
than calm analysis.

In this seminar/workshop, the third in his series, Roger Clarke will
present and classify the various designs, and identify and outline the
key technical, business and other issues.

There will not be a formal paper, but some readings are available, in
relation to both the kinds of products that are emerging, and the
issues. In addition, a draft classification is available.

7. Biography

Roger Clarke spent a decade as Reader in Information Systems in the
ANU's Department of Commerce.  He returned to full-time consultancy in
mid-1995, and practises in electronic commerce, information
infrastructure, and privacy and data surveillance.  Mr Clarke's
primary orientation is to organisational strategy and public policy;
but he tries to stay in touch with the technical underpinnings, and
hence highly values his interactions with DCS people through his
Visiting Fellowship in the Department.
