The 3rd workshop on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC '99)
University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada
November 1, 2 & 3, 1999
Second Announcement July 12, 1999
ECC '99 is the third in a series of annual workshops dedicated to the
study of elliptic curve cryptography. ECC '99 will have a broader
scope than ECC '98 and ECC '97, which focussed primarily on the
elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem. The main themes of
ECC '99 will be:
- Provably secure discrete log-based cryptographic protocols for
encryption, signatures and key agreement.
- Efficient software and hardware implementation of elliptic curve
cryptosystems.
- The discrete logarithm and elliptic curve discrete logarithm problems.
It is hoped that the meeting will encourage and stimulate further
research on the security and implementation of elliptic curve
cryptosystems and related areas, and encourage collaboration between
mathematicians, computer scientists and engineers in the academic,
industry and government sectors.
There will be approximately 15 invited lectures (and no contributed
talks), with the remaining time used for informal discussions.
