Some of us are probably even giving talks at it.

Applications of Pairing-Based Cryptography: Identity-Based Encryption
and Beyond
June 3-4, 2008
NIST, Gaithersburg, MD
The early registration deadline is approaching! Please join us at
the workshop and help NIST direct its future work on identity-based encryption.
This workshop brings together academia, government and industry to
explore innovative and practical applications of pairing-based
cryptography. Pairings have been used to create identity-based
encryption schemes, but are also a powerful tool for solving other
cryptographic problems. We hope to encourage the development of new
security applications and communication between researchers,
developers and users. In addition to presentations, the workshop
will facilitate panel discussions among invited experts and workshop
participants. NIST will seek guidance from workshop presenters,
panelists and attendees to direct its future work in this area of
cryptography, including possible standards work.
Dr. Matt Franklin, co-inventor of one of the original identity-based
encryption schemes, will be presenting a keynote address entitled "An
Introduction to Identity Based Encryption." Dr. Brent Waters will be
presenting a keynote address entitled "Functional Encryption: Beyond
Public Key Cryptography." The workshop program also includes two
panel discussions and 13 presentations from researchers from around
the world. The complete agenda has been posted at http://www.nist.gov/ibe.
The early registration deadline for the NIST Applications of Pairing
Based Cryptography workshop is quickly approaching. The registration
fee is $110 until May 10th, and $145 until May 27th. Please note
that these fees have been reduced due to NIST no longer being able to
provide food and beverages. Voltage Security and Trend Micro will be
sponsoring the morning and afternoon breaks. However, each attendee
will be responsible for his/her own lunch. NIST has a full-service
cafeteria adjacent to the Green Auditorium. Please note the cafeteria
does not take any credit or debit cards. Please be prepared with cash.
More details on the workshop are available at http://www.nist.gov/ibe
