Important dates
Submission Deadline: June 15, 11pm EST
Notification Deadline: August 1
Final submission: August 12
Early registration: August 15
Conference Date: Oct.17-19
General Information
Original research papers on all technical aspects of cryptographic research
related the future world with large bit quantum computers are solicited. The
topics include (but are not restricted to)
-
public
key cryptosystems that have the potential to resist possible future
quantum computers such as: hash-based Merkle-type signature schemes,
lattice based cryptosystems, code-based cryptosystems, multivariate
cryptosystems and quantum cryptographic schemes;
-
classical and quantum attacks including side channel attacks on the
post-quantum cryptosystems;
-
security
models for the post-quantum era.
Instructions for Authors
Submissions must not substantially duplicate work that any of the authors
has published in a journal or a conference/workshop with proceedings, or has
submitted/ is planning to submit before the author notification deadline
(August, 2008) to other conferences/workshops that have proceedings.
Parallel submissions will be rejected, and further actions may occur!
A limit of 12 pages, not including
references and appendices is placed on all submissions. The paper should be
intelligible and self-contained without appendices, as committee members are
not required to read appendices. The submission receipt deadline is June
15, 2008 11pm EST. The paper must be anonymous, with no author names,
affiliations, acknowledgments, or obvious references. The paper must start
with a title, an abstract, and keywords. It should be followed by a succinct statement appropriate
for a non-specialist reader, specifying the subject addressed, its
background, the main results, and their significance. Technical details
directed to the specialist should then follow. If accepted, one of the
authors must register and present the paper at the workshop. Further
submission instructions will be posted on the conference home page PQCrypto.
Submissions not meeting the guidelines risk rejection without consideration
of their merits.
Submissions must be done electronically via EasyChair at
http://www.easychair.org/conferences?conf=pqcrypto2008
