Secure two-party computation with AES-128: Generic approach and exploiting specific properties of functions approach

Introduced by Yao in early 1980s, secure computation is being one among the major area of research interest among cryptologists. In three decades of its growth, secure computation which can be called as two-party computation, or multiparty computation depending on the number of parties involved has experienced vast diversities. Research has been carried out by exploiting specific properties of functionalities and generic approach to achieve efficient practical secure computation protocols. This paper compares the above two approaches for secure two-party computation of AES-128.
