TCC 2007: CALL FOR PAPERS
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The fourth Theory of Cryptography Conference will be held in
Amsterdam, The Netherlands, organized by CWI and sponsored by the
International Association for Cryptologic Research. Papers presenting
original research on theoretical and foundational aspects of
cryptography are sought.

The Theory of Cryptography Conference deals with the paradigms,
approaches, and techniques used to conceptualize, define and provide
solutions to natural cryptographic problems. More specifically,
research in this area includes the:
  * Study of known paradigms, approaches, and techniques, directed
    towards their better understanding and utilization,
  * Discovery of new approaches and techniques that overcome
    limitations of the existing paradigms,
  * Formulation and treatment of new cryptographic problems,
  * Study of notions of security and relations among them,
  * Modeling and analysis of cryptographic constructions, and
  * Study of the complexity assumptions used in cryptography.

The Theory of Cryptography Conference is dedicated to the
dissemination of results in the area. The conference aims to
provide a meeting place for researchers and to be instrumental in
shaping the identity of the Theory of Cryptography community.
