ANNOUNCEMENT

The mathematical theory and practice of cryptography and coding underpins the provision of effective security and reliability for data communication, processing and storage. Theoretical and practical advances in the fields of cryptography and coding are therefore a key factor in facilitating the growth of data communications and data networks of various types. Thus, this fifteenth International Conference in an established and successful IMA series on the theme of "Cryptography and Coding" was both timely and relevant. Original research papers on all technical aspects of cryptography and coding were presented.

The program featured 18 contributed talks and 4 invited talks by Sihem Mesnager, Alexander May, Allison Bishop and Daniel Wichs. The program can be found here and the abstracts of the invited talks here. The proceedings were published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science series volume 9496. The full versions of all accepted papers are available online; you can find links to them below together with the slides when made available by the presenters.
