Re: [Cfrg] Authenticated encryption

[Marshall Eubanks <tme@multicasttech.com>]

Dear John;

Do you know where I can get an on line version of the CWC reference :

   [CWC]           Kohno, T., Viega, J. and Whiting, D. "A Carter-Wegman
                   and Counter-Based Dual-Use Mode (CWC)".  Manuscript,
                   February, 2003.

Or is this the shortly to appear paper you refer to ?

                                  Regards
                                  Marshall Eubanks
