ECC 2016 is the 20th 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 2016 will further our mission 
of
encouraging and stimulating research on the security and implementation 
of
elliptic curve cryptosystems and related areas, and that it will 
encourage
collaboration between mathematicians, computer scientists and engineers 
in
the academic, industry and government sectors.

There will be about fifteen invited lectures (and no contributed talks)
delivered by internationally leading experts, giving both 
state-of-the-art
survey lectures as well as presentations of latest research 
developments.

There will be a rump session at the conference, where participants can 
give
short and entertaining presentations of 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.

The conference is preceded by a summer-school on elliptic curve 
cryptology.
This years theme is "Computational Algebraic Number Theory". Courses are
mainly intended for students preparing a master or doctoral degree.
