Many researchers are interested in hiding information or in stopping
other people doing this. Current research themes include copyright
marking of digital objects, covert channels in computer systems,
detection of hidden information, subliminal channels in cryptographic
protocols, low-probability-of-intercept communications, and
various kinds of anonymity services ranging from steganography
through location security to digital elections.

These closely linked areas of study were brought together in 1996 by a
Workshop on Information Hiding held at the Isaac Newton Institute in
Cambridge. This was felt to be very worthwhile by the research
community, and it was decided to hold a second workshop in 1998 at Portland.

This third International Workshop on Information Hiding will be held
in Dresden, Germany from Sept. 29 to Oct. 1, 1999.

Instructions for authors:

Interested parties are invited to submit papers on research and
practice which are related to these areas of interest. Submissions can
be made electronically (pdf or postscript) or in paper form; in the latter
case, send eight copies.
Papers should not exceed fifteen pages in length and adhere to the
