Who can survive in CAESAR competition at round-zero?

Cryptographic primitives are required to protect an IT (Information Technology) system. They are used to provide CIA (Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability) and other security attributes to the system. So far, NIST (National Institute of Standard and Technology) has successfully standardized AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) for confidentiality and SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm) for integrity. Authenticated Encryption is a cryptographic primitive or mode that simultaneously provides confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity. CAESAR (Competition for Authenticated Encryption: Security, Applicability, and Robustness), funded by NIST, is a competition for Authenticated Encryption. CAESAR provides a long example list of features that can be used to evaluate the submissions, but there is no public notion that indicates the importance of each feature. This paper analyzes Authenticated Encryption modes submitted to NIST and predict the essential features of the submissions to survive CAESAR competition.
