The PBC (Pairing-Based Cryptography) library is a free C library built
|
||
|
|
on the GMP library that performs the mathematical operations
|
||
|
|
underlying pairing-based cryptosystems.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It provides routines such as elliptic curve generation, elliptic curve
|
||
|
|
arithmetic and pairing computation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The API is abstract enough that the PBC library can be used even if
|
||
|
|
the programmer possesses only an elementary understanding of pairings.
|
||
|
|
There is no need to learn about elliptic curves or much of number
|
||
|
|
theory. (The minimum requirement is some knowledge of cyclic groups
|
||
|
|
and properties of the pairing.)
