Abstract

We propose to adapt the recently published model for secure multiagent computation (R. Endsuleit et al., 2003) to grid technology. Since the model is based on a protocol for secure multiparty computation we achieve computations that are robust against a (user-defined) maximum number of wrong or missing inputs. Furthermore, all computations and data stay private until they are returned to their originator. Being able to use mobile agents in a per se nontrusted environment like a grid opens up a variety of possibilities for sensitive applications.
