Hi, my name is Shai Halevi and this is my homepage. Since 1997 I am a Research Staff Member in the Cryptography Research Group in IBM T.J. Watson Research Center. I got my PhD in Computer Science from the Laboratory for Computer Science in MIT. I received my B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Computer Science from the Tehchnion in Israel. My research area is cryptography, and in particular cryptographic protocols and the building blocks from which they are constructed. See my publication list for a better idea of the things that interest me, or see my CV for a full listing. Some other things that I am doing are described below: Charanjit Jutla, Eric Hall, and myself designed a hash function called Fugue, and submitted it to the NIST SHA3 competition. I am serving as membership secretary for the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR). I wrote a software package for Web Submission and Review of papers to conferences. This package is available as open-source under the terms of the Common Public License (CPL) v1.0. I am an associate editor in TISSES (ACM Transactions on Information and System Security). At some point I put together a few tips on how to write a clear submission to conferences. Past activities: I chaired Crypto 2009 and co-chaired TCC 2006 (with Tal Rabin). I also served on the program committees of Asiacrypt 2009, Eurocrypt 2008, ISC 2008, Asiacrypt 2007, ISC 2007, Eurocrypt 2007, CT-RSA 2007, VietCrypt 2006, Crypto 2005, Eurocrypt 2005, ACNS 2003, PKC 2002, CT-RSA 2002, Eurocrypt 2001, and Crypto 2000.
