Advances In Cryptology

Crypto'92 took place on August 16-20, 1992. It was the twelfth in the series of annual cryptology conferences held on the beautiful campus of the University of California, Santa Barbara. Once again, it was sponsored by the International Association for Cryptologic Research, in cooperation with the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Security and Privacy. The conference ran smoothly, due to the diligent efforts of the g- eral chair, Spyros Magliveras of the University of Nebraska. One of the measures of the success of this series of conferences is represented by the ever increasing number of papers submitted. This year, there were 135 submissions to the c- ference, which represents a new record. Following the practice of recent program comm- tees, the papers received anonymous review. The program committee accepted 38 papers for presentation. In addition, there were two invited presentations, one by Miles Smid on the Digital Signature Standard, and one by Mike Fellows on presenting the concepts of cryptology to elementary-age students. These proceedings contains these 40 papers plus 3 papers that were presented at the Rump Session. I would like to thank all of the authors of the submitted papers and all of the speakers who presented papers. I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the work of the program committee: Ivan Damgard (Aarhus University, Denmark), Odd Goldreich (Technion, Israel), Burt Kaliski (RSA Data Security, USA), Joe Kilian (NEC, USA).

Crypto ’99, the Nineteenth Annual Crypto Conference, was sponsored by the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR), in cooperation with the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Security and Privacy and the Computer Science Department, University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB). The General Chair, Donald Beaver, was responsible for local organization and registration. The Program Committee considered 167 papers and selected 38 for presentation. This year’s conference program also included two invited lectures. I was pleased to include in the program UeliM aurer’s presentation “Information Theoretic Cryptography” and Martin Hellman’s presentation “The Evolution of Public Key Cryptography.” The program also incorporated the traditional Rump Session for informal short presentations of new results, run by Stuart Haber. These proceedings include the revised versions of the 38 papers accepted by the Program Committee. These papers were selected from all the submissions to the conference based on originality, quality, and relevance to the field of cryptology. Revisions were not checked, and the authors bear full responsibility for the contents of their papers.

The papers in this volume were presented at the CRYPTO '88 conference on theory and applications of cryptography, held in Santa Barbara, California, August 21-25, 1988. The papers were chosen for their perceived originality and often represent preliminary reports on continuing research. The main sections deal with the following topics: Zero-Knowledge, Number Theory, Pseudorandomness, Signatures, Complexity, Protocols, Security, Cryptoanalysis. As such, they will give the committed reader a unique insight into the very latest developments in the field.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th Annual International Cryptology Conference, CRYPTO'97, held in Santa Barbara, California, USA, in August 1997 under the sponsorship of the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR). The volume presents 35 revised full papers selected from 160 submissions received. Also included are two invited presentations. The papers are organized in sections on complexity theory, cryptographic primitives, lattice-based cryptography, digital signatures, cryptanalysis of public-key cryptosystems, information theory, elliptic curve implementation, number-theoretic systems, distributed cryptography, hash functions, cryptanalysis of secret-key cryptosystems.

A Conference on the Theory and Application of Cryptographic Techniques, Held at he University of California, Santa Barbara, through the Co-operation of the Computer Science Department, August 18 - 220, 1985

Constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 26th Annual International Cryptology Conference, CRYPTO 2006, held in California, USA in 2006. These papers address the foundational, theoretical and research aspects of cryptology, cryptography, and cryptanalysis as well as advanced applications.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on the Theory and Application of Cryptology and Information Security, ASIACRYPT 2005, held in Chennai, India in December 2005. The 37 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 237 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on algebra and number theory, multiparty computation, zero knowledge and secret sharing, information and quantum theory, privacy and anonymity, cryptanalytic techniques, stream cipher cryptanalysis, block ciphers and hash functions, bilinear maps, key agreement, provable security, and digital signatures.
