Practitioners and researchers seeking a concise, accessible introduction to secure multi-party computation which quickly enables them to build practical systems or conduct further research will find this essential reading.
This book provides information on theoretically secure multiparty computation (MPC) and secret sharing, and the fascinating relationship between the two concepts.
In the setting of multiparty computation, sets of two or more parties with p- vate inputs wish to jointly compute some (predetermined) function of their inputs. The computation should be such that the outputs received by the parties are correctly distributed, and furthermore, that the privacy of each party’s input is preserved as much as possible, even in the presence of - versarial behavior. This encompasses any distributed computing task and includes computations as simple as coin-tossing and broadcast, and as c- plex as electronic voting, electronic auctions, electronic cash schemes and anonymous transactions. The feasibility (and infeasibility) of multiparty c- putation has been extensively studied, resulting in a rather comprehensive understanding of what can and cannot be securely computed, and under what assumptions. The theory of cryptography in general, and secure multiparty computation in particular, is rich and elegant. Indeed, the mere fact that it is possible to actually achieve the aforementioned task is both surprising and intriguing.
Cryptography is a field that is constantly advancing, due to exponential growth in new technologies within the past few decades. Applying strategic algorithms to cryptic issues can help save time and energy in solving the expanding problems within this field. Algorithmic Strategies for Solving Complex Problems in Cryptography is an essential reference source that discusses the evolution and current trends in cryptology, and it offers new insight into how to use strategic algorithms to aid in solving intricate difficulties within this domain. Featuring relevant topics such as hash functions, homomorphic encryption schemes, two party computation, and integer factoring, this publication is ideal for academicians, graduate students, engineers, professionals, and researchers interested in expanding their knowledge of current trends and techniques within the cryptology field.

These are the proceedings of Eurocrypt 2010, the 29th in the series of Eu- pean conferences on the Theory and Application of Cryptographic Techniques. The conference was sponsored by the International Association for Cryptologic Research and held on the French Riviera, May 30–June 3, 2010. A total of 191 papers were received of which 188 were retained as valid submissions. These were each assigned to at least three Program Committee members and a total of 606 review reports were produced. The printed record of the reviews and extensive online discussions that followed would be almost as voluminous as these proceedings. In the end 35 submissions were accepted with twosubmissionpairsbeingmergedtogive33paperspresentedattheconference. The ?nal papers in these proceedings were not subject to a second review before publication and the authors are responsible for their contents. The ProgramCommittee, listed on the next page, deservesparticular thanks for all their hard work, their outstanding expertise, and their constant c- mitment to all aspects of the evaluation process. These thanks are of course extended to the very many external reviewers who took the time to help out during the evaluation process.It was also a greatpleasure to honor and welcome Moti Yung who gave the 2010 IACR Distinguished Lecture.
FLINS, an acronym introduced in 1994 and originally for Fuzzy Logic and Intelligent Technologies in Nuclear Science, is now extended into a well-established international research forum to advance the foundations and applications of computational intelligence for applied research in general and for complex engineering and decision support systems.The principal mission of FLINS is bridging the gap between machine intelligence and real complex systems via joint research between universities and international research institutions, encouraging interdisciplinary research and bringing multidiscipline researchers together.FLINS 2020 is the fourteenth in a series of conferences on computational intelligence systems.
Secure Multi-Party Computation MPC is one of the most powerful tools developed by modern cryptography it facilitates collaboration among mutually distrusting parties by implementing a virtual trusted party. Despite the remarkable potential of such a tool, and decades of active research in the theoretical cryptography community, it remains a relatively inaccessible and lesser-known concept outside of this field. Only a handful of resources are available to students and researchers wishing to learn more about MPC. The editors of this book have assembled a comprehensive body of basic and advanced material on MPC, authored by
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Financial Cryptography and Data Security, FC 2010, held in Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain in January 2010. The 19 revised full papers and 15 revised short papers presented together with 1 panel report and 7 poster papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 130 submissions. The papers cover all aspects of securing transactions and systems and feature current research focusing on both fundamental and applied real-world deployments on all aspects surrounding commerce security.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Symposium on Parallel Architectures, Algorithms and Programming, PAAP 2019, held in Guangzhou, China, in December 2019.
