The Second international Workshop on Post-Quantum Cryptography
Peter Shor’s algorithm shows
that if one can build a quantum computer with large bit capacity, he or she
can break currently most popular public-key cryptosystems: e.g., RSA, DSA,
and ECDSA, which are based on hard number theory problems.
Can we build large quantum
computers? What will they do to the cryptographic world, in particular,
public key cryptographic world?
PQCrypto 2008 is the second of the new series of workshops on Post-Quantum
cryptography, which is devoted to the cryptographic research in
preparing us for the world of the possible future quantum computers. This series of workshop is organized due
to the growing interest from academic researchers, industries and governments
in this area. A very successful PQCrypto 2006, the first
PQCrypto, was held in
PQCrypto 2008 will
serve as a forum for researchers to present results and exchange ideas in
post-quantum cryptography. The topics include (but are not restricted to)
