THE 16TH WORKSHOP ON ELLIPTIC CURVE CRYPTOGRAPHY (ECC 2012)

Workshop: October 28-31, 2012, 

http://ecc2012.cs.cinvestav.mx/

ECC 2012 is the 16th in a series of annual workshops dedicated to the
study of elliptic curve cryptography and related areas. Over the past
years the ECC conference series has broadened its scope beyond elliptic
curve cryptography and now covers a wide range of areas within modern
cryptography. For instance, past ECC conferences included presentations
on hyperelliptic curve cryptography, pairing-based cryptography,
side-channel attacks, voting protocols, quantum key distribution, AES,
hash functions, and implementation issues.

At the same time ECC continues to be the premier conference on elliptic
curve cryptography. It is hoped that ECC 2012 will further our mission of
encouraging and stimulating research on the security and implementation
of elliptic curve cryptosystems and related areas, and encouraging
collaboration between mathematicians, computer scientists and engineers
in the academic, industry and government sectors.

There will be at least 16 invited lectures (and no contributed talks)
delivered by internationally leading experts. There will be both
state-of-the-art survey lectures as well as lectures on latest
research developments.

There will be a Rump Session on Monday evening, where participants can
give short and entertaining presentations on recent results, work in
progress, or make announcements of interest to attendees. A call for
submissions for the Rump Session will be issued to registrants before
the event.

Invited Speakers include:

    * Daniel J Bernstein (University of Illinois, Chicago, USA)
    * Billy Bob Brumley (Qualcomm, USA)
    * Craig Costello (Queensland University of Technology, Australia)
    * Jirimie Detrey (Inria, France)
    * Agustmn Dommnguez-Oviedo (ITESM, Mixico)
    * Junfeng Fan (Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium)
    * Steven Galbraith (University of Auckland, New Zealand)
    * David Gruenewald (Universiti de Caen, France)
    * Takuya Hayashi (Kyushu University, Japan)
    * Sorina Ionica (Inria, France)
    * Neal Koblitz (University of Washington, Seattle, USA)
    * Christophe Petit (Universiti Catholique de Louvain, Belgium)
    * Yumi Sakemi (Fujitsu, Japan)
    * Peter Schwabe (Academia Sinica, Taiwan)
    * Alice Silverberg (University of California at Irvine, EUA)
    * Andrew Sutherland (MIT - Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA) 

Registration fees will be:
General participants: $250 USD
Students:             $125 USD
More information will become available online, soon.
