This is a COMPLETE bibliography of the journal Cryptologia (CODEN CRYPE6, ISSN 0161-1194 (print), 1558-1586 (electronic)), specializing in the history and technology of cryptography, published by Aegean Park Press, Laguna Hills, CA, USA.

Publication began with volume 1, number 1, in January 1977, and the journal currently appears quarterly, in January, April, July, and October. Volume 9, number 3, appeared in June, instead of July, 1985.

The journal was originally published and/or edited first at Albion College, Albion, MI, USA, and later, at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, Terre Haute, IN 47803, USA, and then moved in July 1995 to the Department of Mathematical Sciences, United States Military Academy, West Point NY 10996-9902, USA. In 2006, publishing again moved, this time to Taylor & Francis:

This journal is unusual in that volumes are numbered with roman, rather than arabic, numbers. For convenience of bibliography tools like bibsort, this bibliography uses the equivalent arabic form.

The journal has a World-Wide Web site at

    http://www.dean.usma.edu/math/pubs/cryptologia/

From the Web page:

``The journal is NOT a publication of the United States Government but rather is managed and published at the United States Military Academy by Professor Brian J. Winkel, Department of Mathematical Sciences.''

There is an interesting Web site about the Enigma machine, with a large color picture, at

    http://www.enigma-co.com/history.html

and work is in progress to republish Turing's original analysis of the Enigma machine; see

    http://home.cern.ch/~frode/crypto/Turing/index.html

for three of the eight chapters. An Enigma emulator written by Martin Oberzalek is available at

Three volumes of selected reprints from the journal have been published; bibliography entries for them appear at the end of this file, and where possible, cross references have been provided from the original articles to these reprint volumes.

Data for the bibliography has been collected from the bibliographies in the TeX User Group collection, from bibliographies in the author's personal files, from the OCLC Article1st and Contents1st databases, from the Compendex database, from the MathSciNet database, from the Zentralblatt fuer Mathematik database, from publisher Web sites, and from several on-line library catalogs. A small number of missing initial page numbers were obtained from the Uncover database. There is no coverage of this journal in Science Citation Index (1980--2000).

Numerous errors in the sources noted above have been corrected. Spelling has been verified with the UNIX spell and GNU ispell programs using the exception dictionary stored in the companion file with extension .sok.

BibTeX citation tags are uniformly chosen as name:year:abbrev, where name is the family name of the first author or editor, year is a 4-digit number, and abbrev is a 3-letter condensation of important title words. Citation tags were automatically generated by software developed for the BibNet Project.

In this bibliography, entries are sorted in publication order, using ``bibsort -byvolume''. However, this is not reliable for the early years where author and page number information is lacking.

Historical note: The following e-mail message posted on 9-Nov-1998 records the passing of an important figure in computational cryptography:

LONDON (November 8, 1998 3:51 p.m. EST http://www.nandotimes.com) Tommy Flowers, who developed a pioneering computer that cracked German military codes in World War II, is dead at 92.

Flowers died from heart failure at home in London on Oct. 28, his son Kenneth said Sunday.

An engineering graduate of the University of London, Flowers joined the British Post Office, then responsible for all national communications, in the 1930s and experimented in electronic telephone transmissions.

In World War II, he was sent to Bletchley Park, 50 miles from London where mathematicians, cryptographers and other experts worked on breaking German military codes.

Flowers secretly developed Colossus, a one-ton machine that was able to unscramble coded messages electronically rather than mechanically as had been done.

``Colossus had all the characteristics of the computer although it wasn't thought of as a computer at the time,'' Kenneth Flowers said in a telephone interview. ``It could think and made decisions. Up to then these machines had been used just to make numerical calculations.''

By the D-Day invasion on June 6, 1944, Flowers had produced another Colossus that worked five times as fast as the original. By the end of the war in 1945, 10 machines were in operation.

Thomas Harold Flowers, who was born in London on Dec. 22, 1905, received an honor, Member of the British Empire, for his work in the 1940s, but remained largely unknown to the wider public because the work was kept secret until the '70s.

After the war, he returned to the post office and tried to persuade his superiors to use technology to produce an all-electronic phone system.

``He spent 20 years trying to persuade them, but he wasn't so successful because he couldn't tell them he had already produced the machine,'' Kenneth Flowers said.

He did not tell his own family of his achievement and the many lives it saved until long after the war.

``He told us he worked on something secret and important,'' his son said. ``They were allowed to tell that much in case their wives wondered where they were. But until the '70s he never said anything else. It was a point of honor really.''

Bletchley Park is now a tourist attraction with a replica of the Colossus.

In addition to Kenneth, Flowers is survived by his wife, Eileen, son John, and three grandchildren.

The funeral was to be held Monday at Hendon Crematorium in north London.

The checksum field above contains a CRC-16 checksum as the first value, followed by the equivalent of the standard UNIX wc (word count) utility output of lines, words, and characters. This is produced by Robert Solovay's checksum utility.
