For the last few years the International Workshop on Practice and Theory in Public-Key Cryptography has been the main annual workshop focusing on research on all aspects of public-key cryptography. The first workshop was organized in 1998 in Japan. Other PKCs have taken place in Australia, France, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and USA.
Since 2003, PKC is an IACR workshop. PKC has attracted papers from world-renowned scientists in the area. The proceedings of PKC'05 will be published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.
Topics of interest:The topics of interest are all aspects of public-key cryptography including theory, design, analysis, implementation, and applications of public-key cryptography.
Instructions for Authors:The paper must start with a title, an abstract and keywords. It 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 public-key cryptology. Technical details directed to the specialist should then follow. If accepted, one of the authors is expected to present the paper at the workshop.
Submission instructions:Abstracts that have been or will be submitted in parallel
to other conferences and workshops that have proceedings are
not eligible for submission. A sharp limit of 18 pages in
total using the standard LNCS format is placed on all
submissions. The submission receipt deadline is August 26,
2004.
To submit a paper, email to 
with:
- Submission letter in ASCII text format including the title, author names, address and phone number of the corresponding author, and the abstract.
- Source files of the paper submission as well as the final PS or PDF file. It must be a full anonymous paper following the standard LNCS author instructions which can be found at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html
Acknowledgment of submissions:
An acknowledgment email will be sent to the corresponding
author upon receiving each submission. The authors are
advised to contact us by email if they do not receive the
acknowledgment by August 29. This is to rescue the loss of
submission due to the lower and lower reliability of
email.
