Full Description
The 9th Australasian Conference on Information Security and Privacy (ACISP 2004) was held in Sydney, 13-15 July, 2004. The conference was sponsored by the Centre for Advanced Computing - Algorithms and Cryptography (ACAC), Information and Networked Security Systems Research (INSS), Macquarie U- versity and the Australian Computer Society. Theaimsoftheconferencearetobringtogetherresearchersandpractitioners working in areas of information security and privacy from universities, industry and government sectors. The conference program covered a range of aspects including cryptography, cryptanalysis, systems and network security. The program committee accepted 41 papers from 195 submissions. The - viewing process took six weeks and each paper was carefully evaluated by at least three members of the program committee. We appreciate the hard work of the members of the program committee and external referees who gave many hours of their valuable time. Of the accepted papers, there were nine from Korea, six from Australia, ?ve each from Japan and the USA, three each from China and Singapore, two each from Canada and Switzerland, and one each from Belgium, France, Germany, Taiwan, The Netherlands and the UK. All the authors, whether or not their papers were accepted, made valued contributions to the conference. In addition to the contributed papers, Dr Arjen Lenstra gave an invited talk, entitled Likely and Unlikely Progress in Factoring. ThisyeartheprogramcommitteeintroducedtheBestStudentPaperAward. The winner of the prize for the Best Student Paper was Yan-Cheng Chang from Harvard University for his paper Single Database Private Information Retrieval with Logarithmic Communication.
