** Best Paper Award **
Prizes will be awarded to the authors of the Best Paper(s) and the
Best Student Paper(s). Program Committees will select awards
sometime after the paper notification and before the conference.
To be eligible for Best Student Paper Award, the main author
should be a full-time graduate or undergraduate student as of
March 2020. To enter as a candidate, please tick the appropriate
box in the online submission form. Candidates must submit a copy
of their student ID with facial photo to the Program Chairs (after
the paper notification).
** Journal Recommendation **
It is planned that Program Co-Chairs will recommend the authors of
best papers to submit their full versions to either of "IEICE
Trans. on Fundamentals, Special Section on Cryptography and
Information Security" or "Journal of Information Processing, CSEC
Special Issue" after consultation between Program Co-Chairs and
the authors.
** Proceedings **
The conference proceedings will be published by Springer, in the
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) Series. All of the past
IWSEC proceedings have been published in LNCS.
Even if IWSEC 2020 would be postponed, held online, or cancelled
because of COVID-19, LNCS conference proceedings will be
published.
** Instruction for Authors **
All submitted papers must be original, unpublished, and not
submitted in parallel to any other peer-reviewed conferences or
journals. Submitted papers must be written in English and be fully
anonymous with no author names, affiliations, acknowledgements, or
obvious references.
Authors should consult Springer's authors' guidelines and use
their proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or for Word, for the
preparation of their papers. Springer encourages authors to
include their ORCIDs in their papers. In addition, the
corresponding author of each paper, acting on behalf of all of the
authors of that paper, must complete and sign a Consent-to-Publish
form. The corresponding author signing the copyright form should
match the corresponding author marked on the paper. Once the files
have been sent to Springer, changes relating to the authorship of
the papers cannot be made.
Submitted papers may contain at most 16 pages excluding appendices
and references, and at most 20 pages including appendices and
references. The Abstract input to EasyChair should be less than
500 words. Note that according to the latest LNCS guideline,
appendices are required to be placed before the references.
Figures and tables with color can be included in papers. However,
these materials will appear in black and white in the conference
proceedings.
Optionally, any amount of clearly marked supplementary materials
may be supplied, following after the main body of the submitted
paper; however, reviewers are not required to read or review them,
and submissions should be intelligible without them. Supplementary
materials are mostly intended for additional data such as
experimental data or source code. Note that supplementary
materials are not allowed to be included in the camera-ready
version.
Submissions are to be made via the submission website. Only PDF
files will be accepted. Please choose track (A or B) when
submitting. Submissions not meeting these guidelines may be
rejected without consideration of their merit. Also, for more
appropriate reviews, your paper may be reviewed on the other track
than the track selected. For each accepted paper, at least one of
the authors must register for the workshop before the due date of
the camera-ready version and is also required to present the paper
at the workshop. The title and the list of authors of the final
version cannot be changed from the submitted version unless
otherwise approved by the program co-chairs. Note that some papers
may be accepted as short papers, merged papers, or conditionally
accepted for shepherding.
