Description:
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.
