Format:
|
Workshop. |
|
Purpose:
|
To
brings together academia, government and industry to explore innovative
and practical applications of pairing-based cryptography. Pairings
have been used to create identity-based encryption schemes, but
are also a useful tool for solving other cryptographic problems.
We hope to encourage the development of new security applications
and communication between researchers, developers and users. In
addition to presentations, the workshop will facilitate panel discussions
among invited experts and workshop participants. |

Topics:
|
NIST solicits
presentations, panel proposals and participation from all interested
parties, including researchers, system architects, vendors, and
users. Suggested topics for submissions in applications of pairing-based
cryptography include:
- Internet
and web security
-
Voting schemes
-
Health care
-
Access control schemes
-
IBE trust model
-
Integration of PKGs with PKI
-
Searching and processing encrypted data
-
Broadcast systems
-
Novel security applications
NIST will
post the accepted presentations on the workshop web site and include
them in a workshop handout, however will not publish a formal
workshop proceedings. NIST encourages presentations on work that
may be published elsewhere.
