I'm looking for FSE2001 proceedings
Does anyone know where I could purchase or get the papers submitted to the Fast Software Encryption Workshop 2001? Springer-Verlag does not have it available for purchase yet. I looked at the Web site (url below) and emailed the 2 Japanese fellows apparently running it but they have yet to respond. Any pointers or help would be most appreciated. I'm cc'ing cyperpunks and cryptography mailing lists as well. http://www.venus.dti.ne.jp/~matsui/FSE2001/ Thanks, - Alex -- Alex Alten Alten@Home.Com

It's annoying that crypto papers hardly ever seem to be made available online. I wonder if there is any chance of crypto researchers joining the scientific journal boycott... The boycott is described here among other places: http://www.scientificamerican.com/explorations/2001/042301publish/ http://slashdot.org/science/01/04/24/149257_F.shtml Basically the researchers, who are currently mostly in the life sciences, want papers published freely on the web after six months. So if you need completely up to date information, you buy the journal. If you aren't bothered you can look on the web. According to the Scientific American article they have 15,000 researchers including several Nobel prize winners. This wouldn't help Alex, though... :-( -- Pete

It also doesn't seem to be on Springer LINK yet.
For what it's worth, this is not my experience. While not every paper is online, a large number of people make papers available from their web pages. Plus I'm very lucky in that my library subscribes to the online Springer LINK service.

It's been a while since looking at the Springer-Verlag copyright notice. I remember that it allows authors to publish papers on their web pages. Is this correct? What are the ACM and IEEE copyright terms like? Do they also allow publication on the web? Computer science might have it better than the life sciences in this regard. de facto if not de jure. -David

I've been trying to get hold of Hans Dobbertin's results on MD4, which was the original reason for my comment. Are these available on the web anywhere? I can't find them. I've seen a simplified version of MD4 in use which I think is an interesting target for cryptanalysis. One assumes that since MD4 is not collision free the simplified version is not. I would like to see if preimage attacks are possible on the simplified version. (Collision resistance is not actually important for the application where the simplified MD4 is in use.) -- Pete --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to majordomo@wasabisystems.com

I am one of the authors of one of the papers there. As far as I know, only preproceedings are available until now - the deadline to send the final version to Matsui was at the end of May. It is no wonder it takes time to publish the final proceedings. On the other hand, preproceedings were (I think) printed in a small quantity and mostly for the conference participants. You may still inquery Matsumoto Matsui about their availability, but doubt in it. Moreover, preproceedings *really* contained *prefinal* versions of the papers. If you want to get final versions, contact the authors. It is also mostly up to them to put their papers on their homepages - some authors do, some don't: mind that not all of them have time or possibilities to maintain a homepage.
