Special Track on Applied Cryptology and Network Security (STACNS)
July 14-17, 2008, Las Vegas, USA

A number of Special Sessions on Applied Cryptology and Network Security will be organized within
the 2008 International Conference on Security and Management (SAM’08), July 14-17, 2008, Monte
Carlo Resort, Las Vegas, USA.  This conference is an annual meeting on quality papers focusing on
the latest developments in security.  The goal of these sessions is to explore the research work
of graduate students, and junior faculty/researchers.  

Topics of Interest

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

-- Applications of Block  and Stream Ciphers
-- Applications of Symmetric and Public Key Cryptology
-- Applications of Hash Functions and Digital Signatures
-- Network Security

Submission Guidelines

Prospective authors are invited to submit their draft paper (5-8 pages - single space, font size
of 10 to 12) via email to [log in to unmask] (Kevin Daimi).  MS document and PDF formats are
preferable.
