General Information:
EUROCRYPT '96, the 13th Annual EUROCRYPT conference on the theory and
applications of cryptologic techniques, is organized by the
International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR), in
cooperation with the University of Zaragoza. Original papers are
solicited on all technical aspects of cryptology. The topics of
interest include, but are not limited to:
| Applications | Information Theory |
| Authentication | Interactive Proofs |
| Block Ciphers | Key Management |
| Combinatorics | Number Theory |
| Computational Complexity | Payment Systems |
| Computer and Network Security | Protocols |
| Cryptanalysis | Pseudo-Randomness |
| Hash Functions | Public-Key Systems |
| Digital Signatures | Public-Key
Certification |
| Electronic Money | Secret Sharing |
| Formal Models | Secure Computation |
| Foundations and Theory | Stream Ciphers |
| Identification Protocols | Standards |
| Implementation Aspects | Zero Knowledge
Protocols |
Instructions for Authors:
Send a cover letter, one title page and 17 copies of an extended
abstract to be received by November 8, 1995, (or postmarked by October
30, 1995 and sent by airmail or courier) to the Program Chair at the
address given below. The cover letter must state: "This paper is not
submitted in parallel to any other conference or workshop that has
proceedings." The title page should contain the title, the names of
the authors, their postal and e-mail addresses and the abstract. The
extended abstract should start with the title and abstract, but should
be anonymous (no author names, affiliations, acknowledgments or
obvious references). This should be followed by a succinct statement
appropriate for a non-specialist reader specifying the subject
addressed, its background, the main achievements, and their
significance to cryptology. Technical details directed to the
specialist should then follow. Submissions are limited to 10
single-spaced pages of 12pt type, not counting the bibliography and
clearly marked appendices. Since referees are not required to read the
appendices, the paper should be intelligible without them.
Notification of acceptance or rejection will be sent to authors on
January 15, 1996.
Conference Proceedings:
Proceedings will be available at the conference. They will be
published in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science.
Clear instructions about the final copy will be sent to authors of
accepted papers. The final copies of the accepted papers will be due
on February 26, 1996. Final papers arriving too late will be removed
from the main program. Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that
their paper will be presented at the conference.
Stipends:
A limited number of stipends are available to those unable to obtain
funding to attend the conference. Students whose papers are accepted
and who will present the paper themselves are encouraged to apply if
such assistance is needed. Requests for stipends should be addressed
to the general chair.
