FIDIS (Future of Identity in the Information Society) is a NoE (Network of Excellence) supported by the European Union under the 6th Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development within the Information Society Technologies Priority (IST). The network comprises of 24 research institutes throughout Europe (for further information see www. fidis. net), with a variety of disciplinary backgrounds. They share their research findings regarding (emerging) identification technologies, privacy enhancing technologies, the adequacy of the legal framework and identity management systems. Within the FIDIS network a special workpackage has been dedicated to investigate the implications of profiling technologies, taking into account that these technologies are preconditional for smart applications and Ambient Intelligence. This volume is the academic validation of the work done within this workpackage. v
