This collection presents thirty-five research papers from the third CARDIS conference, held in Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium in September 1998. The papers address the growing need for secure, portable computing platforms through smart card technology. Schneier gathers contributions from researchers across Europe, the United States, Asia, and Australia, covering Java cards, electronic commerce applications, efficiency improvements, and architectural developments. The volume emphasizes security considerations that have driven smart card evolution, including cryptographic algorithms, authentication protocols, and implementation challenges. These revised conference proceedings reflect the increasing practical demand for smart card solutions and the international scope of research in this expanding field.
