13th Workshop on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC 2009)

ECC 2009 is the 13th in a series of annual workshops dedicated to the study of elliptic curve cryptography and related areas. Over the past years the ECC conference series has broadened its scope beyond elliptic curve cryptography and now covers a wide range of areas within modern cryptography. For instance, past ECC conferences included presentations on hyperelliptic curve cryptography, pairing-based cryptography, side-channel attacks, voting protocols, quantum key distribution, AES, hash functions, and implementation issues.

This year the Workshop was hosted by The University of Calgary, August 24-26, 2009 at Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

I stayed at Travelodge (located in Motel Village, near the University of Calgary) 2227 Banff Trail NW.

I also participated to the Elliptic Curve Cryptography Summer School that was held the week before the ECC 2009 Workshop. The summer school ran from August 19 until August 22.
