Analysis on the key techniques of secure multiparty computation

Abstract

Secure Multiparty Computation technique plays an important role in the security research of distributed systems.This paper firstly summarizes the advances in theoretical and practical studies on SMC,and then analysis the basic protocols and its related cryptographic algorithms.Secondly,the key tools,secret share,homomorphic public key cryptography,mix network,zero knowledge proof,oblivious transfer and private comparison protocol in implementation SMC are studied deeply.Finally,some research directions in this area are also proposed.
