Proceedings: LNCS (pending)

The PQCrypto conference serves as a forum for researchers to present
results and exchange ideas in post-quantum cryptography. Authors are
invited to submit original research papers on all technical aspects of
cryptographic research related to a future world with large quantum
computers. The topics include (but are not restricted to):

* (Public-Key) cryptosystems that have the potential to resist possible
future quantum computers such as:
   o hash-based Merkle-type signature schemes,
   o lattice-based cryptosystems,
   o code-based cryptosystems,
   o multivariate cryptosystems, and
   o quantum cryptographic schemes;
* Classical and quantum attacks including side-channel
   attacks on the  post-quantum cryptosystems;
* Security models for the post-quantum era.
