Opcount: A Pseudo-Code Performance Estimation System for Pairing-Based Cryptography

Pairing-based Cryptography

Acknowledgements I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to some people who were involved in this project. First of all, I owe thanks to Henk van Tilborg for being my overall supervisor and arranging current and previous projects. I would like to thank Benne de Weger, who was closely involved in the writing of this report, for the fruitful discussions and useful advises. T...

Pairing-Based Cryptography for Sensor Networks

Pairing-based Cryptography has enabled a wide range of cryptographic schemes. This work discusses these schemes in the context of wireless sensor networks. To our knowledge, ours is the first work to address this subject.

Elliptic Curves Suitable for Pairing Based Cryptography

Instruction Set Extensions for Pairing-Based Cryptography

A series of recent algorithmic advances has delivered highly effective methods for pairing evaluation and parameter generation. However, the resulting multitude of options means many different variations of base field must ideally be supported on the target platform. Typical hardware accelerators in the form of co-processors possess neither the flexibility nor the scalability to support fields ...
