Presents
Scott Guthery
CertCo, Inc.
CtrlShft
in the
Smart Card Industry
Tuesday, July 7, 1998
12 - 2 PM
The Downtown Harvard Club of Boston
One Federal Street, Boston, MA
The advent of customer-programmable and field-loadable
smart cards has caused a control shift in the smart card industry
from card manufacturers to card issuers. While this would
seem to be good for issuers and bad for manufacturers,
the other side of this ... er, card ... is that anybody can become
an issuer. This talk will describe the available programmable
smart cards and some of the business cases being built on
top of them.
Scott Guthery leads the cryptographic device project at CertCo.
He has a PhD in Probability and Statistics from Michigan State
University and worked at Bell Laboratories and Schlumberger before
joining CertCo. At Schlumberger he received two patents for his
contributions to Schlumberger's oil well logging system and lead
the team that invented the Java Card, a smart card that runs
Java. He has published articles in number theory, programming
languages and network protocls and is the co-author of the
soon-to-be published book, "Smart Card Developer's Kit."
This meeting of the Digital Commerce Society of Boston will be held on
Tuesday, July 7, 1998, from 12pm - 2pm at the Downtown Branch of the
Harvard Club of Boston, on One Federal Street. The price for lunch is
$32.50. This price includes lunch, room rental, various A/V hardware, and
the speaker's lunch. ;-). The Harvard Club *does* have dress code: jackets
and ties for men (and no sneakers or jeans), and "appropriate business
attire" (whatever that means), for women. Fair warning: since we purchase
these luncheons in advance, we will be unable to refund the price of your
lunch if the Club finds you in violation of the dress code.
This meeting will be recorded for sale on CD. If you're interested in a CD
of this meeting for $35, or a yearly DCSB CD subscription for $350, please
contact Joan Pumphret of Audio Elements at <mailto: joan@mediaone.net>.
We need to receive a company check, or money order, (or, if we *really* know
you, a personal check) payable to "The Harvard Club of Boston", by Saturday,
July 4th, or you won't be on the list for lunch. Checks payable to
anyone else but The Harvard Club of Boston will have to be sent back.
Checks should be sent to Robert Hettinga, 44 Farquhar Street, Boston,
Massachusetts, 02131. Again, they *must* be made payable to "The Harvard
Club of Boston", in the amount of $32.50. Please include your e-mail
address, so that we can send you a confirmation
If anyone has questions, or has a problem with these arrangements (We've had
to work with glacial A/P departments more than once, for instance), please
let us know via e-mail, and we'll see if we can work something out.
Upcoming speakers for DCSB are:
August TBA
September TBA
October Peter Cassidy Intellectual Property Rights Management
We are actively searching for future speakers. If you are in Boston on the
first Tuesday of the month, and you would like to make a presentation to the
Society, please send e-mail to the DCSB Program Commmittee, care of Robert
