[Announce-maths] Notice: Public Talk

"Digital history made in Dublin" was the headline (Irish Times, September 5th, 98) after President Clinton and An Taoiseach digitally signed a US-Irish communiqué on e-commerce using cryptographic software by Baltimore Technologies. Just what is a digital signature? It is a mathematically driven electronic form of a normal signature, a revolutionary development made possible through "Public-Key" cryptography. A public Talk "Bill Clinton, Bertie Ahern, and digital signatures" will take place in Room X137, in the Science Building, at 7 p.m. on Monday, March 26th. The lecture will be given by John Cosgrave of St Patrick's College, Drumcondra, using a computer and Maple software. All Welcome! Refreshments served!
