Introduction -- 2. Proxy re-cryptography -- 3. Attribute-based cryptography -- 4. Batch cryptography -- 5. Noncommutative cryptography -- 6. Perspectives-- Appendixes-- References-- Index N2 - The book provides vivid demonstrations of how modern cryptographic techniques can be used to solve security problems. The applications cover wired and wireless communication networks, satellite communication networks, multicast/broadcast and TV networks, and newly emerging networks. It also describes some open problems that challenge the new directions of modern cryptography. This volume is an essential resource for cryptographers and practitioners of network security, security researchers and engineers, and those responsible for designing and developing secure network systems ER -
