If any of you have recently done something interesting related to
smartcards or other portable crypto devices and want to report about it
to a broad expert audience, then please consider submitting a paper to
USENIX Workshop on Smartcard Technology

Chicago, Illinois, USA
Deadline for the extended abstracts is December 1, 1998,
final papers are due March 30, 1999.
The USENIX Workshop on Smartcard Technology will be held in conjunction
with the largest North American smart card conference, CardTech/
SecureTech, so this should also be an excellent opportunity to meet
