Course Content

The aim of this course is to study the various constructions of elliptic curves having large prime-order subgroups with small embedding degrees. We will study complex multiplication and other methods for this constructions and study the recommended pairing –friendly elliptic curves so far discussed in the litarature. We will also give efficient implementations of Tate Pairing and Pairing Based-Protocols.
