WAIFI 2012. Bochum, Germany. July 16-19, 2012
The program is now ready (see below) and registration is open (early
bird till June 16):
more at http://waifi.org

This workshop is a forum of mathematicians, computer scientists,
engineers and physicists performing research on finite field arithmetic,
interested in communicating the advances in the theory, applications,
and implementations of finite fields. The workshop will help to bridge
the gap between the mathematical theory of finite fields and their
hardware/software implementations and technical applications.

Please feel free to forward this information to any college who might be
interested.

New announcement: Abstracts and Presentations (ASP) Session
Due to numerous requests, the Steering Committee of WAIFI is also
announcing an additional session, which we call the Abstracts and
Presentations (ASP) Session. In the spirit of Crypto Rump Session, the
ASP Session allows the participants to submit abstracts which will be
reviewed by a committee. The authors will then be invited to present
their papers while their abstracts will appear in a separate booklet as
"the ASP Session Abstracts", to be distributed during the workshop.
Everyone is invited to submit an abstract for the ASP Session of WAIFI
2012. The submission should begin with the title, the list of authors,
the list of keywords followed by the 1/2-page abstract. The same author
or the same group of authors may submit only one abstract. Also the
submission should not exceed a single Letter/A4 page. Please submit a
TEXT or PDF file.
The ASP Session Review Committee will quickly review your submission and
respond to you in a timely manner.

Please send your submission to:
* Francisco Rodríguez-Henríquez (francisco/at/cs.cinvestav.mx)
* Ferruh Ozbudak (ozbudak/at/metu.edu.tr)

Important dates:
* Submission deadline: June 15th, 2012
* Acceptance notification: June 26th, 2012
