<p>The actual agenda of the conference will be determined by the papers the<br />
program committee selects. The conference committee is selecting papers in<br />
what it considers the union, rather than a strict intersection, of the<br />
fields of finance and cryptography.</p>
<p>For last year's program please see (<a href="http://www.offshore.com.ai/fc97/" title="http://www.offshore.com.ai/fc97/">http://www.offshore.com.ai/fc97/</a>).</p>
<p>Original papers are being solicited on all aspects of financial data<br />
security and digital commerce in general, including:</p>
<p> Anonymous Payments Fungibility<br />
Authentication Home Banking<br />
Communication Security Identification<br />
Conditional Access Implementations<br />
Copyright Protection Loss Tolerance<br />
Credit/Debit Cards Loyalty Mechanisms<br />
Currency Exchange Legal Aspects<br />
Digital Cash Micropayments<br />
Digital Receipts Network Payments<br />
Digital Signatures Privacy Issues<br />
Economic Implications Regulatory Issues<br />
Electronic Funds Transfer Smart Cards<br />
Electronic Purses Standards<br />
Electronic Voting Tamper Resistance<br />
Electronic Wallets Transferability</p>
<p>Proceedings of Financial Cryptography 1998 will be published by Springer<br />
Verlag in their Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.</p>
<p>For further information on the submission process, please see the program<br />
committee's web-page at (<a href="http://www.cwi.nl/conferences/FC98" title="http://www.cwi.nl/conferences/FC98">http://www.cwi.nl/conferences/FC98</a>).</p>
<p>Last year, the conference was been covered by The New York Times,<br />
Institutional Investor, the Financial Times, Wired Magazine, NHK Japan, and<br />
other media. In addition, financial cryptograpy and several of last year's<br />
conference participants and sponsors were the subject of a cover story in a<br />
September issue of Forbes Magazine.</p>
<p>If last year's interest in this conference is any indication, it is<br />
probably a good idea to register for FC98 and make your plane and hotel<br />
reservations as soon as possible, as conference, workshop, and exhibit<br />
space is extremely limited, and we anticipate selling out all three events.</p>
<p>The price of a pass to the conference sessions and exhibits is US$1,000,<br />
with discounted rates for full-time academics and students of $250 and $100<br />
respectively. You can pay for your FC98 conference ticket with Visa or<br />
MasterCard, or any of a number of other internet commerce payment<br />
protocols, at the regstration site, (<a href="http://www.fc98.ai/" title="http://www.fc98.ai/">http://www.fc98.ai/</a>).</p>
<p>The price includes breakfast and lunch. Internet connectivity will also be<br />
provided at the conference site.</p>
<p>The Exhibition<br />
The FC98 Exhibition is an exclusive trade show for financial cryptography<br />
products and services. The trade show floor will be open from 9:00 am to 5<br />
pm the entire week of the conference Monday through Friday, February 23-27.<br />
In addition, the conference facility will be open for commercial<br />
presentations and demonstrations in the afternoons Tuesday through<br />
Thursday, and all day on Friday. Each booth will have high bandwidth access<br />
to the internet, and will get 3 conference passes. Booth prices start at<br />
