Thu Aug 14 08:18:10 CST 2025

Dear Dr. Chang,

Regarding the email below we sent yesterday, we would like to provide an addition and a correction:

- Could you please let us know the volume number of the Asiacrypt 2025 proceedings in LNCS?

- The email address mentioned in the message below, "Asiacrypt2025 at iis.sinica.edu", is incorrect. The correct address is "Asiacrypt2025 at iis.sinica.edu.tw".

We would appreciate your response.

Sincerely,

Goichiro and Bo-Yin

Dear Dr. Chang,

Thank you very much for approving the publication of the Asiacrypt 2025 proceedings.
Also, we apologize for the delay in replying to your previous email.

As of August 10, the list of accepted papers has been (mostly) finalized, and we have sent out acceptance notifications to the authors.
We would like to report this progress to you.
(Please note that some papers are still in the shepherding phase, so the list is not yet completely finalized.)

We are now beginning the tasks required for publication, and we would greatly appreciate your continued support.

In particular, we would be grateful if you could provide guidance on the following points:

(i) Could you please provide a list of the files we need to submit to you?

(ii) Could you also advise us on the submission procedure?

(iii) We have requested the authors of accepted papers to submit their camera-ready versions by September 10.
We believe that submitting all necessary files for publication to you by early October should be sufficient, but please let us know if our understanding is incorrect.

Additionally, in response to the questions you asked in your previous email, please find our answers below:

> 1. Could you let us know who will serve as the corresponding editor, e.g., the primary contact for Springer team during the proceedings publication process? (Name, Affiliation, email)

Goichiro Hanaoka, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, hanaoka-goichiro at aist.go.jp
Bo-Yin Yang, Academia Sinica, byyang at iis.sinica.edu.tw
(In alphabetical order)

> 2. Please provide the emails that should be copied on the acceptance note.

asiacrypt2025programchairs at iacr.org
asiacrypt2025 at iacr.org

> 3. Will you need iThenticate accounts (free of charge) to check paper similarity?

No, we do not need them at this time.

> 4. Will you need to use Springer’s submission and paper review system (free of charge)?

No, we do not need it at this time.

> 5. We would recommend you provide a conference-dedicated email account, then we will copy this account in all author proof emails. If some author failed to receive the author proof email, you can immediately help by forwarding the email. Only if both sides failed to receive author proof emails, we will arrange to resend. If you would like to implement this approach, please provide an email for this purpose.

Please use the following email address:
Asiacrypt2025 at iis.sinica.edu

Sincerely,

Bo-Yin and Goichiro

Dear Bo-Yin Yang, Dear Goichiro Hanaoka,

Thank you for confirming to publish Asiacrypt 2025 with LNCS.

We have obtained the information we need for evaluation from the dedicated page for Asiacrypt proceedings: https://link.springer.com/conference/asiacrypt and the Asiacrypt 2025 conference page: https://asiacrypt.iacr.org/2025/.  Based on the available information and taking into account the successful cooperation since 1990, I am pleased to inform you that we have accepted Asiacrypt 2025 for publication as LNCS volumes. Please kindly note we need at least 7 weeks for the publication process to make the proceedings available online before the conference starts.

Please feel free to take this note as a temporary acceptance and proceed with your next steps, and announce that Asiacrypt 2025 will be published with LNCS series. We will send you the formal acceptance note with all the necessary details shortly.

In the meantime, could you provide the following information:

1.      Could you let us know who will serve as the corresponding editor, e.g., the primary contact for Springer team during the proceedings publication process? (Name, Affiliation, email)
2.      Please provide the emails that should be copied on the acceptance note.
3.      Will you need iThenticate accounts (free of charge) to check paper similarity?
4.      Will you need to use Springer’s submission and paper review system (free of charge)?
5.      We would recommend you provide a conference-dedicated email account, then we will copy this account in all author proof emails. If some author failed to receive the author proof email, you can immediately help by forwarding the email. Only if both sides failed to receive author proof emails, we will arrange to resend.

Dear Dr. Chang,

We sincerely apologize for the delay in reaching out.
At Asiacrypt 2025, we are currently in the process of reviewing submissions, and we aim to publish the proceedings on the same schedule as in previous years.

We expect the number of accepted papers to increase by approximately 10–20% compared to last year.

We would greatly appreciate it if you could provide guidance on what steps we should take toward publication.

Sincerely,

Bo-Yin Yang and Goichiro Hanaoka,
Asiacrypt 2025 Program Co-Chairs

Hi Bo-Yin and Goichiro,

This is for your information. Maybe you have to contact Springer for the publication of the proceeding?

Dear Prof. Liu,

Please introduce me as an Editorial Director of Computer Science from Springer Nature, I am responsible for the publication of Asiacrypt proceedings. As we have not yet received the proposal from Asiacrypt this year, which is later than our schedule in past years, I am writing to inquire about the status and plan.

Looking forward to hearing from you and working with you on Asiacrypt 2025!

Best wishes,

Celine
