This conference is devoted to the algebraic and combinatorial aspects of codes and cryptography and the links between codes and cryptography. It aims at gathering international experts, including researchers from the University of Aix-Marseille, in this essential and very active field of mathematics and theoretical computer science. This event aims also to provide a forum for researchers working on algebraic and combinatorial methods for coding and cryptography, exchange ideas and interests in open problems, and further explore their applications in cryptography error-correcting codes and communications. We plan to issue a ”Call for Paper” for specialized talks and select some presentations to be published in the congress proceedings in the international journal Advances in Mathematics of Communications édited by American Institute of Mathematical Sciences and handled by Jintai Ding and Sihem Mesnager as Editors-in-Chief.

Cette conférence est consacrée aux aspects algébriques et combinatoires des codes et de la cryptographie et aux liens entre les codes et la cryptographie. Elle vise à rassembler des experts internationaux, dont des chercheurs de l’Université d’Aix-Marseille, dans ce domaine essentiel et très actif des mathématiques et de l’informatique théorique. Cet événement vise également à fournir un forum pour les chercheurs travaillant sur les méthodes algébriques et combinatoires pour le codage et la cryptographie, à échanger des intérêts et des idées sur des problèmes ouverts, et à explorer davantage leurs applications en cryptographie, codes correcteurs d’erreurs et communications. Nous prévoyons de lancer un « appel à communications » pour les exposés spécialisés et de sélectionner certaines présentations qui seront publiées dans les actes du congrès dans la revue internationale « Advances in Mathematics of Communications » éditée par l’American Institute of Mathematical Sciences et dont les rédacteurs en chef sont  Jintai Ding et Sihem Mesnager.
