April 11-13, 2005, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society

Description:
The focus of this special session of International Conference on
Information
Technology: Coding and Computing is on embedded cryptographic systems.
Of
special interest are contributions that describe new methods and
architectures for high performance embedded cryptographic systems.
Accepted
papers will be edited as a book published by Nova Science, New York,
USA.

Topics:
* Computer architectures for public-key cryptosystems
* Computer architecture for secret-key cryptosystems
* Efficient cryptographic algorithms for embedded processors
* Secure cryptographic algorithms for embedded processors
* Reconfigurable computing in cryptography
* Cryptographic processors and co-processors
* Cryptography in wireless applications
* Smart card architectures
* Compression algorithms for smart cards
* Special-purpose hardware for cryptanalysis

Paper Submission:
Papers should be original and contain contributions of theoretical or
experimental nature, or be unique experience reports. Interested
authors
should submit a 6-page summary of their original and unpublished work
including 5 keywords in the IEEE format to the track chair. Electronic
submission in the PDF or Word format is strongly encouraged. For
instructions on electronic submissions, Click here (we will update
this link
later on the main page).

Evaluation Process:
Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity, and
soundness. Per ITCC policy, except for invited papers, all papers will
be
reviewed by at least two independent reviewers. Accepted papers will
be
published in the conference proceedings with an ISBN. Selected track
papers
presented in the conference will be considered for publication in a
special
issue of an international journal.

Best Student Paper:
The Best Student Paper will be awarded at the conference. To be
eligible,
the student must be the sole author of the paper, or the first author
and
primary contributor. (The winner of the award will present the paper
in a
plenary session at the conference). A cover letter to the General
Chair/Track Chair must identify the paper as a candidate for this
competition at the time of submission.

Deadlines:
Submission : October 29, 2004
Author Notification: December 19, 2004
Camera Ready (6 pages): January 9, 2005
