Patent AU-4407299-A (AU)
Title: Robust efficient distributed rsa-key generation
Inventor: FRANKEL YAIR
IPC: H04L9/30
Filed: 1999-05-21
Abstract: The invention provides for robust efficient distributed generation of RSA keys. An efficient protocol is one which is independent of the primality test "circuit size", while a robust protocol allows correct completion even in the presence of a minority of arbitrarily misbehaving malicious parties. The disclosed protocol is secure against any minority of malicious parties (which is optimal). The disclosed method is useful in establishing sensitive distributed cryptographic function sharing services (certification authorities, signature schemes with distributed trust, and key escrow authorities), as well as other applications besides RSA (namely: composite ElGamal, identification schemes, simultaneous bit exchange, etc.). The disclosed method can be combined with proactive function sharing techniques to establish the first efficient, optimal-resilience, robust and proactively-secure RSA-based distributed trust services where the key is never entrusted to a single entity (i.e., distributed trust totally "from scratch"). The disclosed method involves new efficient "robustness assurance techniques" which guarantee "correct computations" by mutually distrusting parties with malicious minority.
Patent AU-4446989-A (AU)
Title: Disk-shaped recording medium and apparatus for recording and/or reproducing data thereon
IPC: G11B7/24097
Filed: 1989-11-08
Abstract: A disk-shaped recording medium has a control record region in each recording region of successive recording tracks and which is divided into a first preformat region, a second preformat region and a focusing servo region arranged in succession in the direction along the respective track and respectively providing traverse data, tracking and clock data, and focusing servo data. An apparatus for reproducing data recorded in the tracks of such disk-shaped recording medium samples a playback output from an optical head scanning a track to detect focusing data from the focusing servo region and tracking data from the second preformat region and, in response thereto, applies focusing servo or tracking servo to the optical head. Further, traverse data is detected in the first preformat region to effect traverse counting of the recording tracks.
