Advances In Cryptology Eurocrypt 94

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 1994 Workshop on the Theory and Application of Cryptographic Techniques, EUROCRYPT '94, held in Perugia, Italy in May 1994. The 36 revised full papers presented in the book are selected from 137 submissions and address all current research and advanced applicational aspects of cryptography; in addition, there are 11 short papers originating from the best special presentations accepted for the traditional rump session. The papers are organized in sections on secret sharing, hash functions, signatures, cryptosystems, pseudorandom generators, authentication codes, key agreement and key distribution, protocols, cryptanalysis and block ciphers, and number theory and algorithms.

This volume is concerned with the individual steps in the pathway of retrovirus morphogenesis and maturation starting at the point where the components of the virion have been synthesized within the infected cell and ending once the infectious virion has been released from this cell. An introductory chapter provides a comparative description of the structure and morphology of infectious viruses. A novel feature is the organization according to individual steps in the pathway of virus particle formation rather than according to individual viruses or virus groups as has been done in most previous reviews. This novel concept should allow a comparative discussion of the similarities and differences within this complex virus family regarding the specific aspects of formation of an infectious virion.

This volume constitutes the proceedings of EUROCRYPT '95, the 1995 International Workshop on the Theory and Application of Cryptographic Techniques, held in Saint-Malo, France in May 1995 under the sponsorship of the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR). The volume contains revised versions of the 33 papers selected from a total of 113 submissions. All current aspects of cryptologic research and advanced applications are addressed; there are sections on cryptanalysis, signatures, computational number theory, cryptographic protocols, secret sharing, electronic cash, shift registers and Boolean functions, authentication codes, new schemes, complexity aspects, and implementation aspects.

This book contains a set of revised refereed papers selected from the presentations at the Second International Workshop on Fast Software Encryption held in Leuven, Belgium, in December 1994. The 28 papers presented significantly advance the state of the art of software algorithms for two cryptographic primitives requiring very high speeds, namely encryption algorithms and hash functions: this volume contains six proposals for new ciphers as well as new results on the security of the new proposals. In addition, there is an introductory overview by the volume editor. The papers are organized in several sections on stream ciphers and block ciphers; other papers deal with new algorithms and protocols or other recent results.

This volume constitutes the strictly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the Fourth International Workshop on Fast Software Encryption, FSE'97, held in Haifa, Israel, in January 1997. The 23 full papers presented were carefully selected from 44 submissions and revised for inclusion in the book. Also contained is a summary of a panel discussion. The papers are organized in sections on cryptanalysis, blockciphers, stream ciphers, message authentication codes, modes of operation, and fast software encryption. Particular emphasis is placed on applicability and implementation issues of fast cryptography.
