Advances in Cryptology - CRYPTO '97

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th Annual International Cryptology Conference, CRYPTO'97, held in Santa Barbara, California, USA, in August 1997 under the sponsorship of the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR).
The volume presents 35 revised full papers selected from 160 submissions received. Also included are two invited presentations. The papers are organized in sections on complexity theory, cryptographic primitives, lattice-based cryptography, digital signatures, cryptanalysis of public-key cryptosystems, information theory, elliptic curve implementation, number-theoretic systems, distributed cryptography, hash functions, cryptanalysis of secret-key cryptosystems.
