Paper submission page: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=waifi2024

Important dates:
Submission deadline (EXTENDED): March 18th, 2024
Acceptance notification: May 3rd, 2024
Workshop: June 10-12, 2024
Final post-proceedings version due: July 7th, 2024

The "International Workshop on the Arithmetic of Finite Fields (WAIFI) 2024", to be held in Ottawa, Canada, June 10-12, 2024, 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, specially in cryptography and coding theory.

The topics of WAIFI 2024 include but are not limited to:

Theory of finite field arithmetic:
Bases (canonical; normal; dual; etc.)
Polynomials (irreducible; primitive; permutation)
Boolean functions and special functions over finite fields
Algebraic curves over finite fields
Dynamical systems over finite fields
Hardware & Software implementations:
Design & implementation of finite field processors
Design & implementation of arithmetic algorithms
Pseudorandom number generators
Hardware/Software co-design
Applications of finite fields in:
Cryptography (ciphers; PQC; etc.)
Coding theory (AG codes; LDPC codes; etc.)
Combinatorics (designs; arrays; etc.)
Finite geometry

The proceedings will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series after the workshop as post-proceedings.

The workshop website http://www.waifi.org <http://www.waifi.org/>, will be updated regularly with more information.

Kind regards,
