ABSTRACT BOOK
PROCEEDINGS LINK
Cryptography and coding theory play an essential role in the provision of effective security and reliability for data communication, processing and storage. This eighteenth International Conference in an established and successful IMA series on the theme of “Cryptography and Coding” encompasses applied aspects of these fields as well as the mathematical theory that underpins them.
Invited Speakers
Prof David Jao, University of Waterloo
Prof Colin Boyd, NTNU
Prof Juliane Krämer, University of Regensburg
Call for Papers
Original research papers on all technical aspects of cryptography and coding theory are solicited for submission. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Post-Quantum Cryptography;
- Construction and Cryptanalysis of Symmetric Cryptographic Primitives;
- Boolean Functions;
- Applications of Sequences in Communications;
- Protocols;
- Secure Implementation of Cryptographic Primitives;
- Information Theoretic Security;
- Applications of Coding Theory to Cryptography/Security;
- Locally Decodable and Locally Recoverable Codes;
- Storage Codes.
Instructions for Authors
Submissions must not substantially duplicate work that any of the authors has published elsewhere or has submitted in parallel to a journal or any other conference or workshop with proceedings. Accepted submissions may not appear in any other conference or workshop that has proceedings. Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their paper will be presented at the conference and must make a full version of their paper available online.
All submissions will be blind-reviewed. Papers must be anonymous, with no author names, affiliations, acknowledgements, or obvious references. Submissions should begin with a cover page containing title, a short abstract, and a list of keywords. The body of the paper should be at most 14 pages, excluding the title page with abstract, the bibliography, and clearly marked appendices. Committee members are not required to review appendices, so the paper should be intelligible and self-contained within this length. The submission must be in Springer’s LNCS format. Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits.
Submissions for this conference closed on 26 July 2021.
Results of Submissions will be released by 8 September 2021.
