United Kingdom
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the United Kingdom (UK) or Britain, is a country in Europe, off the north-western coast of the continental mainland. It comprises England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The United Kingdom includes the island of Great Britain, the north-eastern part of the island of Ireland, and many smaller islands within the British Isles. Northern Ireland shares a land border with the Republic of Ireland; otherwise, the United Kingdom is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, the North Sea, the English Channel, the Celtic Sea and the Irish Sea. The total area of the United Kingdom is , with an estimated 2020 population of more than 67 million people. The United Kingdom has evolved from a series of annexations, unions and separations of constituent countries over several hundred years. The Treaty of Union between the Kingdom of England (which included Wales, annexed in 1542) and the Kingdom of Scotland in 170 ...

HP Laboratories
HP Labs is the exploratory and advanced research group for HP Inc. HP Labs' headquarters is in Palo Alto, California and the group has research and development facilities in Bristol, UK. The development of programmable desktop calculators, inkjet printing, and 3D graphics are credited to HP Labs researchers. HP Labs was established on March 3, 1966, by founders Bill Hewlett and David Packard, seeking to create an organization not bound by day-to-day business concerns. The labs have downsized dramatically; in August 2007, HP executives drastically diminished the number of projects, down from 150 to 30. As of 2018, HP Labs has just over 200 researchers, compared to earlier staffing levels of 500 researchers. With the Hewlett Packard Enterprise being spun off from Hewlett-Packard on November 1, 2015, and renamed to and HP Inc., the research lab also spun off Hewlett Packard Labs to Hewlett Packard Enterprise and HP Labs was kept for HP Inc.

Pairing-based Cryptography
Pairing-based cryptography is the use of a pairing between elements of two cryptographic groups to a third group with a mapping e :G_1 \times G_2 \to G_T to construct or analyze cryptographic systems. Definition The following definition is commonly used in most academic papers. Let F_q be a Finite field over prime q, G_1, G_2 two additive cyclic groups of prime order q and G_T another cyclic group of order q written multiplicatively. A pairing is a map: e: G_1 \times G_2 \rightarrow G_T , which satisfies the following properties: ; Bilinearity: \forall a,b \in F_q^*, P\in G_1, Q\in G_2:\ e\left(aP, bQ\right) = e\left(P, Q\right)^ ; Non-degeneracy: e \neq 1 ; Computability: There exists an efficient algorithm to compute e. Classification If the same group is used for the first two groups (i.e. G_1 = G_2), the pairing is called ''symmetric'' and is a mapping from two elements of one group to an element from a second group. Some researchers classify pairing instantiations int ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Elliptic Curve Cryptography
Elliptic-curve cryptography (ECC) is an approach to public-key cryptography based on the algebraic structure of elliptic curves over finite fields. ECC allows smaller keys compared to non-EC cryptography (based on plain Galois fields) to provide equivalent security.Commercial National Security Algorithm Suite and Quantum Computing FAQ U.S. National Security Agency, January 2016.
