Conference Report Conference Report
The International Conference on Security Aspects in Information Technology, High-Performance Computing and Networking 2011 took place between October 19 to October 22, 2011, in India. The program was organised by Marc Joye, Debdeep Mukhopadhyay and Michael Tunstall, while the local organisation was done by Debasis Giri. The general chairs of the conference were P.K. Saxena and P.D. Srivastava. The proceedings were published as part of the Lecture notes in Computer Science by Springer.
A large amount of submissions were recieved. In total there were, 112 submission. Of these, 14 were accepted to be included in the conference. There were six invited talks, given by Jorn-Marc Schmidt, Ingrid Verbauwhede, Benedikt Gierlich, Saibal Pal, Palash Sarkar, and Sanjay Burman. In addition three tutorials were presented, by Abhijit Das, C. Pandurangan and Michael Tunstall, each of duration of three hours. We expect that this conference will be repeated under the less general theme of "Cryptography and Cryptographic Engineering", which we hope will help encourage cryptography research in India. This conference is expected to complement CHES, since the number of submissions generally received by CHES demonstrates the popularity of research into topics related to cryptographic engineering. The intention is also to hold conferences that will not be in direct conflict with Indocrypt.
