ISW '99 was held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The
previous
conference, ISW'97 was held in JAIST, JAPAN. The goal of this
conference
is a little different from the other security conference. This
means that
the focus of this conference is on the following areas: multimedia
watermarking, electronic cash, secure software components, mobile
agents,
and protection of software NOT including encryption, digital
signature and
so on.
This conference is famous for its submission from
many
variety of countries. This time, the program committee
received the
paper from 12 countries, that is, Australia, China, France,
Germany, Hong
Kong, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan, and
USA.
During
the conference, I met many researchers and obtained good
opportunities to
have invaluable discussions.
