Call For Posters

– Poster submission –

AfricaCrypt is an annual international conference on cryptology. AfricaCrypt 2024 is co-organised by The University of Bamenda (UBa) and the National Agency for Information and Communication Technologies (ANTIC), in cooperation with the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR). The aim of AfricaCrypt 2024 is to provide a forum for practitioners and researchers from industry, academia and government from all over the world for open discussion on all aspects of cryptography and its applications.

We are organising a poster session for showcasing (recent) research results, including work in progress. The authors will get a 5-8 minutes time slot to present their work in a poster session and posters will be on display in the coffee break room for the duration of the conference. We invite all researchers to submit their ongoing projects, published results that they would like to disseminate, challenges dealt with in their research domain and prospective new research directions that are in line with the theme of the conference.

The submissions will go through a light review process. Posters will not appear in the proceedings. Authors must come in person with their poster to present them.
