Abstract


Pairing-based cryptography is one of the most attractive and extensively progressed areas in modern cryptography in the last decade. This is because pairing technology has brought many breakthroughs both in construction and analysis of cryptographic schemes such as ID-based cryptosystem, short signatures, efficient broadcast encryption, and MOV reduction. I will show a method of fast pairing computation and its applications to anonymous signatures.
