With welcome drinks and nibbles.
Monday, 27-Jan-200309:00 - 09:15 Opening remarks
Phong Nguyen, General Co-Chair
09:15 - 10:15 Keynote talk: Digital Cash - ahead of its time or just a bad idea?
Tim Jones (Mondex). Session Chair: Rebecca Wright.
Mondex was an attempt to bring crypto to the masses.
Why did it fail?
Did it have any successes?
What was learned?
10:15 - 10:45 Coffee break
10:45 - 12:45 Micropayments and E-cash
Session Chair: Jacques Stern
Using Trust Management to Support Transferable Hash-Based Micropayments

Systems
Matthieu Gaud and Jacques Traoré
Retrofitting Fairness on the Original RSA-Based E-Cash
Shouhuai Xu and Moti Yung
12:45 - 14:00 Lunch
14:00 - 15:30 Panel: Does anyone really need MicroPayments?
Moderator: Nicko van Someren (nCipher)
Participants: Bob Hettinga (IBUC), Andrew Odlyzko (University of Minnesota) and Ron Rivest (MIT, PepperCoin)
Many cryptographers have tried to develop special technology for
transferring tiny amounts of value; the theory being that the
computational and/or administrative costs of other payment schemes
render them unsuitable for small value transactions. In this panel we
will discuss two major questions: firstly are the existing systems
really not useful for small values and secondly might other models such
as flat rate or subscription systems be more suitable anyway, and be
possible without the need for small payments?
Tuesday, 28-Jan-200309:00 - 10:30 Security, Anonymity, and Privacy
Session Chair: Gene Tsudik

14:00 - 15:30 Panel: Economics of Security
Moderator: L. Jean Camp
Participants: Drew Dean (SRI), Andrew Odlyzko (University of Minnesota) and Stuart Schechter (Harvard)
Do we spend enough on electronic security? How can we judge when we are spending too much? Is there any way to evaluate expenditure? Is the value of cryptography subject to economic measurement?
20:00 - 21:00 IFCA General Meeting
21:00 - 23:00 Rump Session

Wednesday, 29-Jan-200309:00 - 10:00 Keynote talk: Listening In on the UN: Technology Lessons from the Diplomats

Abstract: Enabling rules on electronic signatures and records,
international registry systems and electronic documents of title have all
been the topics of recent international negotiation--at the U.N., the Hague
Conference, UNIDROIT and other international diplomatic bodies. This talk
will look at recent successes, failures and ongoing global harmonization
work that have a direct bearing on the development of payment and financial
systems.
