FSE 2013 is the 20th anniversary annual Fast Software Encryption workshop, for the twelveth year sponsored by the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR). FSE 2013 will take place in Singapore. Original research papers on symmetric cryptology are invited for submission to FSE 2013. The workshop concentrates on fast and secure primitives for symmetric cryptography, including the design and analysis of block ciphers, stream ciphers, hash functions, message authentication codes (MACs), authenticated encryptions, encryption schemes, and analysis and evaluation tools.


Instructions for Authors

Submissions must not substantially duplicate work that any of the authors has published in a journal or a conference/workshop with proceedings, or has submitted/is planning to submit before the author notification deadline to a journal or other conferences/workshops that have proceedings. Accepted submissions may not appear in any other conference or workshop that has proceedings. IACR reserves the right to share information about submissions with other program committees to detect parallel submissions and the IACR policy on irregular submissions will be strictly enforced.

The submission must be written in English and be anonymous, with no author names, affiliations, acknowledgments, or obvious references.
