Financial Cryptography and Data Security is a major international
forum for research, advanced development, education, exploration, and

FURTHER SUBMISSION INFORMATION

Papers must be formatted in standard LNCS format and submitted as PDF
files. Submissions in other formats will be rejected. All papers must
be submitted electronically according to the instructions and forms
found on the submission site. Post-proceedings of the event will be
published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.

Authors may only submit work that does not substantially overlap with
work that is currently submitted or has been accepted for publication
to a conference/workshop with proceedings or a journal. We consider
double submission serious research fraud and will treat it as such. In
case of doubt contact the program chair for any clarifications at
fc12chair at ifca.ai.

Regular Research Papers. Research papers should describe novel,
previously unpublished scientific contributions to the field, and they
will be subject to rigorous peer review. Accepted submissions will be
included in the conference proceedings to be published in the
Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS)
series. Submissions are limited to 15 pages.

Short Papers. Short papers are also subject to peer review, however,
the intention is to encourage authors to introduce work in progress,
novel applications and corporate/industrial experiences. Short papers
will be evaluated with a focus on novelty and potential for sparking
participants' interest and future research avenues. Short paper
submissions are limited to 8 pages in standard LNCS format. The paper
title for short papers must include the text '(a short paper)'.

Panel Proposals. We especially would like to encourage submissions of
panel proposals. These should include a very brief description of the
panel topics, as well as of the prospective panelists. Accepted panel
sessions will be presented at the conference. Moreover, each
participant will contribute a one-page abstract to be published in the
conference proceedings. Please feel free to contact us directly if you
would like to further discuss the suitability of a certain topic.
Panel submissions should be up to 2 pages, sent to fc12chair at ifca.ai.

Posters. The poster session is the perfect venue to share a
provocative opinion, interesting established or preliminary work, or a
cool idea that will spark discussion. Poster presenters will benefit
from a multi-hour session to discuss their work, get exposure, and
receive feedback from attendees. Poster submissions should be 1 page
(in the same LNCS format). Please keep in mind that the poster
deadline is later than the main paper submission deadline. The posters
will be published in the proceedings. Poster proposals should be sent
to the posters chair at fc12chair at ifca.ai.

Workshop Proposals. Proposals for workshops to be held at FC 2012 are
also solicited. A workshop can be full day or half day in
length. Workshop proposals should include: (i) a title, (ii) a call
for papers, (iii) a brief summary and justification -- including how
it would fit into the greater FC scope, (iv) a (tentative) Program
Committee and its Chair, (v) one-paragraph bios for key organizers,
and (vi) the expected (or previous - if workshop has been held in
previous years) number of submissions, participants and acceptance
rates. Workshop proposals should be sent fc12workshops at ifca.ai.

The Rump Session. FC'12 will also include the popular "rump session"
held on one of the evenings in an informal, social atmosphere. The
rump session is a program of short (5-7 minute), informal
presentations on works in progress, off-the- cuff ideas, and any other
matters pertinent to the conference. Any conference attendee is
welcome to submit a presentation to the Rump Session Chair (to be
announced at the conference). This submission should consist of a talk
title, the name of the presenter, and, if desired, a very brief
abstract. Submissions may be sent via e-mail, or submitted in person
in the morning on the day of the session.

The Financial Cryptography and Data Security Conference is organized
by The International Financial Cryptography Association (IFCA).
