>The purpose of the workshop is to bring together those who design and 
>implement cryptographic protocols with those who formally analyze them, in 
>order to develop a community that can routinely produce secure protocols for 
>use in protecting organizational data and facilitating commerce. The two 
>groups will have opportunities to share ideas about the current state of the 
>art, directions to pursue, and the motivation for their work. 
>
>Participants will be encouraged to bring demonstration software with them, 
>and part of the workshop organization will involve determining the needs for 
>Internetwork access and local networking. The demonstrations will be of 
>secure protocols in action and of interactive specification and verification
>techniques. 
>
>In addition to examining the current state, participants will attempt to 
>quantify the factors that they expect to be significant contributors to 
>scaling the current techniques for future problems. For example, the ability
>to perform proofs new protocols within a day might be significant. What are 
>the prospects for doing this for a mobile internetwork protocol, for
example. 
>
>Ideally the conclusion of the workshop would be a set of published
guidelines 
>for how to design and verify secure cryptographic protocols in reasonable
time.
