The 26. International Cryptology Conference (CRYPTO) 2006
Submissions
Submissions must not substantially duplicate work that any of the authors has published elsewhere or has submitted in parallel to any other conference or workshop that has proceedings. Accepted submissions may not appear in any other conference or workshop that has proceedings.
Visas: It is strongly recommended that authors apply for visas at time of submission. Do not wait for the decisions.
Submission Format:
In a departure from previous years, submissions will NOT be anonymous.
The length of the submission should be at most 12 pages excluding bibliography and appendices. It should be in single column format, use at least 11-point fonts, and have reasonable margins.
The submission should begin with a title, author list, a short abstract, and a list of keywords. The introduction should summarize the contributions of the paper at a level appropriate for a non-specialist reader. Committee members are not required to read appendices; the paper should be intelligible without them.
Papers must be submitted electronically by February 23, 2006, 17:00 PST.
Submissions should preferably be in PDF format (i.e., a .pdf file), although PostScript (i.e., a .ps file) will be allowed. If at all possible, the submission should be in US letter paper size (rather than A4), and should use Type 1 fonts (rather than Type 3 fonts).
