Cryptography and Coding: 15th IMA International Conference, IMACC 2015, Oxford, UK, December 15-17, 2015. Proceedings (Lecture Notes in Computer Science Book 9496)

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 15th IMA International Conference on Cryptography and Coding, IMACC 2015, held at Oxford, UK, in December 2015. The 18 papers presented together with 1 invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 36 submissions. The scope of the conference was on following topics: authentication, symmetric cryptography, 2-party computation, codes, Boolean functions, information theory, and leakage resilience.
