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.)
