Progress in Cryptology - AFRICACRYPT 2008: First International Conference on Cryptology in Africa, Casablanca, Morocco, June 11-14, 2008, Proceedings

by Serge Vaudenay (Editor)

Overview

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Cryptology hosted in Africa, held in Casablanca, Morocco, in June 2008. The 25 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement from 82 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on AES, analysis of RFID prools, cryptographic prools, authentication, public-key cryptography, pseudorandomness, analysis of stream ciphers, hash functions, broadcast encryption, and implementation.
