Selected Areas in Cryptography

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Selected Areas in Cryptography (SAC) is a series of international cryptography workshops held annually in Canada, every August since 1994. Through 1999, it was held at either Queen's University or Carleton University; the locations have varied more in recent years. SAC has presented research on many cryptographic topics, but especially the design and analysis of block ciphers.

Since 2003, SAC has included an invited lecture called the Stafford Tavares Lecture, in honor of one of its original organizers and long-time supporters.
