Abstract

Celebrating achievements is an important social ritual. Tracks and

themes at conferences such as ETHICOMP 2015 provide

opportunities for the careful discussion of challenges facing

society in terms of information and communication technology

(ICT). This topic provides the underpinning rationale to the body

of papers presented throughout the entire ICT and Society track at

this ETHICOMP conference. The conference orientation explains

this paper’s focus on codes of ethics, professional ethics,

organisations and the particular challenges of the cloud and

virtuality over a 25-year time-period.
