Organization of international conferences

We are involved in the organization of the Workshop on Coding Theory and Cryptography (WCC) which will be held in Paris in April 2011. This is the seventh in the series of biannual workshops on Coding and Cryptography. Pascale Charpin and Nicolas Sendrier were the general chairs of the workshop. Anne Canteaut was a program co-chair.
