A secret sharing schemefor the prohibited structure is a method of sharing a master key among a finite set of participants in such a way that only certain pre-specified subsetsof ...
This paper proposes a novel data clustering algorithm, coined ‘cellular ants’, which combines principles of cellular automata and ant colony optimization algorithms to group s...
Secret sharing in user hierarchy represents a challenging area for research. Although a lot of work has already been done in this direction, this paper presents a novel approach t...
The proposed approach works for any underlying secret sharing scheme. It is based on the concept of verification sets of participants, related to authorized set of participants. T...
Ramp secret sharing (SS) schemes can be classified into strong ramp SS schemes and weak ramp SS schemes. The strong ramp SS schemes do not leak out any part of a secret explicitly...
